Subject: Proposed WWCDA Plan Amendment
Adding properties to the acquisition list
Date: January 14, 2011
The following staff report is a request to the Commission by staff to be allowed to
begin the statutory process to amend the development plan of the West Washington
Chapin Development Area (WWCDA) to add two parcels to the acquisition list.
The attached map shows the location of the two parcels. These two parcels are
directly north of Tippecanoe Place Restaurant. The parcel along Washington Street
has a one story red brick commercial building on it. The parcel along Taylor Street
has a one story cement block commercial building on it.
Both of these buildings are out of character with the historic neighborhood which
surrounds them. Both buildings have been vacant for many years and are in a state of
disrepair. Upon acquisition of these properties, they will be cleared and the lots
offered for market rate housing.
Staff requests that the Commission authorize it to begin the preparation of plans,
maps, and related property information for the two properties mentioned above. Once
the information is gathered, staff will present the information to the Commission, and
then, upon approval of the planning information, will present a Declaratory Resolution
to amend the acquisition list of the WWCDA. Separate resolutions will also be
submitted for approval to the Area Plan Commission and the Common Council before
a final public action before the Commission in the form of a public hearing and
Confirming Resolution.
