Authentix Lakeville Erik Thom of Continental Properties requested Council approval of Authentix Lakeville, which proposes 288 stacked flat townhouse units within 12 buildings on a 19.55 -acre lot located north of 210th Street and west of Keokuk Avenue adjacent to the I-35 corridor. He presented information regarding the demand for multi -family housing in Lakeville and the current retail market conditions. The proposed housing would provide both market and employment support for businesses in the area. Jonathan Adams of Silverstone Realty & Development talked about the challenges with marketing the Lakeville Commerce Center property. This site has been particularly challenging given the existing wetlands and access points. Due to the current retail market conditions, he indicated there is little potential for additional commercial development on this site. Dan Licht of The Planning Company presented the planning report for Authentix Lakeville. He stated the site was guided in 2008 for high density residential use and was changed to commercial use in 2018. In addition to the preliminary plat, Continental Properties is requesting approval of a Comprehensive Plan amendment to re -guide the CITY COUNCIL Minutes, June 07, 2021 Page 5 property from Commercial to Corridor Mixed Use, a zoning ordinance amendment to allow townhouses as a conditional use in the M-1 District and to allow a reduction in the minimum floor area of multiple family dwellings, meeting Metropolitan Council affordable housing criteria. The Economic Development Commission identified commercial properties for possible multiple family development to address housing and economic development goals. This proposed development meets 20% of City's 2021-2030 attainable housing goal. Council members discussed whether it is appropriate to rezone this property from commercial to high density residential. They also discussed the quality of exterior building materials proposed for this project. Mr. Thom stated he would work with city staff to identify alternative options for exterior building elevations on the units facing I-35. Motion was made by Bermel, seconded by Volk, to continue consideration of Authentix Lakeville to the June 21, 2021 City council meeting to allow additional time for city staff and the developer to work on site plan details. Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes - Anderson, Bermel, Lee, Volk Nay - Hellier 10. 2021 Zoning Ordinance Update Mr. Licht presented the proposed 2021 zoning ordinance update amending Titles 2, 6 and 11 of the Lakeville City Code.

Rick Bowman, owner of the former HiHi Market, expressed concerns regarding the proposed restrictions on banded canopy lighting and signage on motor fuel facilities. Council members agreed to remove sections of the proposed ordinance regulating canopy lighting on motor fuel facilities and refer that topic back to the Planning Commission for further discussion. Motion was made by Hellier, seconded by Volk, to adopt Ordinance No. 1047 amending the Lakeville City Code and summary ordinance for publication, except Sections 22 through 25, and refer Sections 22 through 25 back to the Planning Commission for further discussion.
