HUB District Edge zone along University Parkway
Approved · 6-0
The council created an HD-Edge zone, 200 feet deep from the sidewalk at three places along University Parkway, with retail uses and no three-story minimum so pad-site restaurants and shops can be built in front of big-box tenants. A 6-foot landscaped setback is required next to parking, and rules on sidewalks, landscaping and alternate standards were added. Three properties were rezoned from HD-Core to HD-Edge: near 314 East University Parkway, 212 East University Parkway and 1315 South State Street. The owner of Carillon Square asked that a non-retail tenant be allowed, so medical, dental and health services (SLU 6510) were added. Deputy City Attorney Steve Earl wanted to keep the corridor retail, and City Manager Jamie Davidson urged protecting University Parkway as a retail destination.
