6. (a) continued- put on their agenda for Tuesday the 18th of April, then the Common Cou cil, then the public hearings before this Commission, then the MACOG approval is required so I would like to present to you Resolution No. 550 as prepared by Mr. Butler, together with Attachment A. In Attach- ment A under Paragraph B, we have limited the effect of this Resolution on land use "as indicated above, this area will be devoted to a broad ran e of compatible retail and service uses, hotel -motel use which is oriented to and supports the city's Cultural Center development in Prea D, is also permitted in the block bounded by E. Colfax Avenue, St. Joseph Street, E. Washington Street and Michigan Street Pedestrian Mall ". Mr. Brownell continued: The purpose of limiting it to this area is to indicate that we are in no way trying to interfere with our last resolution that is before the court and it covers the entire Area C. We are limiting this resolution to this square block as defined above. We should not get involved with that lawsuit. Mr. b. Wiggins: I move for the adoption of Resolution No. 550 covering land use changes in the area as defined. Motion was seconded by Mr. Cira and carried. Commission approval requested for changes to be made on the Land Disposition Plan Map, as outlined in letter from John C. Pettigrew of Trkla, Pettigrew, Allen and Payne, in relation to the afore- mentioned area. Mr. Brownell: I would like to suggest to you that a motion be made to approve changes to be made on our Land Disposition Plan Map as they have been suggested to us by Mr. Pettigrew. The idea is to change the land uses for this area so that it would read like this map (Mr. Brownell then pointed to the revised Land Disposition Plan Map which had been prepared by Clyde E. Williams, incorporating the new land use "Retail/ Service - Commercial /Parking ")..we have had this map prepared for your approval. You will recall we vacated that street when we put the last plat of streets through. Mr. Wiggins: In other words, we are changing the map to match what we did in Resolution #550. Mr. Brownell: That's right. We also had them (Clyde Williams) put in the overhead walkway in the land use map. Mr. Wiggins: Is there any other action that we need to take? Mr. Brownell: All that I know of is that we need a motion to approve these changes in this map, even though its not part of our urban renewal plan. You can change it anytime but we would like to have it changed now. Mr. Wiggins: The point I raise is: are there any prohibitions against the land bridge, the connection between the Century Center and the development? I would hate for us to stumble over a rock there later on. . Brownell: I know of none.
