ZONING HISTORY FOR SITE AND IMMEDIATE VICINITY: September 10, 2024 Request by the City of Waterloo to vacate Elm Street from Sycamore Street to Lafayette Street, located adjacent to 1515 Sycamore Street. City of Waterloo, 715 Mulberry Street, Waterloo, Iowa 50703 The applicant is requesting to vacate Elm Street northwest of 1515 Sycamore Street to create additional parking for the redevelopment of the former Rath Administration Building into 87 affordable residential units. The request to vacate Elm Street between Lafayette Street and Sycamore Street would not appear to have a negative impact on the surrounding area. The vacate request would not appear to have a negative impact on vehicular or pedestrian conditions in the area as there are no driveways located along Elm Street for any uses other than 1515 Sycamore Street. The vacation of Elm Street will deter traffic from using Elm Street and will keep traffic on the minor arterial streets that surround the development. There are sidewalks along the northeast and northwest sides of Elm Street and along Sycamore Street and Lafayette Street. The sidewalks along Elm Street will be removed with the approval of the vacate in order to create space for the additional parking. The Cedar Valley Lakes Trail is located a quarter of a mile to the south along the north side of the Cedar River. The proposed vacate area is currently zoned "M-2" Heavy Industrial District and "C-P" Planned Commercial District and has been zoned as such since the area zoned "C-P" was rezoned from "M-2" Heavy Industrial District on May 6, 2024. As part of a separate request the vacate area will be rezoned to "C-P" to be consistent with the property at 1515 Sycamore Street. Surrounding land uses and their zoning are as follows: North — Waterloo Women's Center for Change, Northeast Iowa Food Bank, and Operation Threshold, zoned "M-2" Heavy Industrial District. South — Crystal Distribution and vacant building, zoned "M-1" Light Industrial District. East — former Rath Administration Building, zoned "C-P" Planned Commercial District. West — C&A Transport, zoned "M-1" Light Industrial District and "M-2" Heavy Industrial District. BUFFERS There are no buffers or screening required in relation to this REQUIRED/ NEEDED: request.

Vacate- Elm Street Page 2 of 5 Page 21 of 49 DRAINAGE: DEVELOPMENT HISTORY: FLOODPLAIN: PUBLIC /OPEN SPACES/ SCHOOLS: September 10, 2024 The proposed vacate would require detention for the additional paved parking area. The applicant is showing two detention areas on the site plan. The former Rath Administration Building was constructed in 1925. The Human Services Campus to the north was constructed between 2010 and 2012. The other commercial and industrial development in the area was built between 1926 and 1999. The area is located within Zone X (Protected by Levee) which is not a Special Flood Hazard Area as indicated by the 2024 Federal Insurance Administration's Flood Insurance Rate Map. Highland Elementary School is located approximately 0.92 miles to the northeast and Expo Alternative High School is located approximately 0.93 miles to the northeast of the site in question. East High School is approximately 0.7 miles to the northwest of the site. The Cedar River is located a quarter of a mile to the south, and Lafayette Park is located 2 blocks to the southeast of the area in question. UTILITIES: WATER, A 30" sanitary sewer and a 12" water main is located within SANITARY SEWER, Elm Street. A 15" sanitary sewer line is located within STORM SEWER, ETC. Lafayette Street. A 4" drain tile for storm sewer and an 8" sanitary sewer line are located within Sycamore Street. Overhead utility lines are located along the east and west sides of Elm Street. A utility easement will need to be retained over, under, and upon the entire vacate area. RELATIONSHIP TO The Future Land Use Map designates this property as COMPREHENSIVE Industrial. The proposed land use is not in conformance with LAND USE PLAN: the Future Land Use Map for this area. However, the Future Land Use Map is to be used as a guide in making land use decisions. The site is in the Primary Growth Area as identified in the City's Comprehensive Plan adopted August 21, 2023. STAFF ANALYSIS — The City of Waterloo is requesting to vacate Elm Street ZONING between Lafayette Street and Sycamore Street for the ORDINANCE: purpose of creating additional parking for the redevelopment of 1515 Sycamore Street (former Rath Administration Building) into 87 affordable residential units. The site plan submitted by the developer shows 122 parking spaces for the redevelopment of 1515 Sycamore. The vacated right of way will provide 58 additional parking spaces for the development for a total of 180 parking spaces. Division Street and Sycamore Street provide on -street parking that can be used by the residents and visitors of the residential complex. There are approximately 43 on -street parking spaces available along Division Street and Sycamore Vacate- Elm Street Page 3 of 5 Page 22 of 49 September 10, 2024 TECHNICAL REVIEW COMMITTEE: STAFF ANALYSIS — SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE: STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Street. According to the Zoning Ordinance, the site will require 174 parking stalls (2 parking spaces per dwelling unit). The vacated street will help the applicant get approximately 2.06 parking spaces per unit rather than 1.40 parking spaces per unit on site. Between the 122 on -site parking stalls, the 58 parking stalls created from the vacated street, and the approximately 43 on - street parking spaces, the site will exceed the requirement of 2 parking spaces per dwelling unit (174 parking spaces) by providing 2.56 parking spaces per dwelling unit (223 parking spaces). Elm Street between Mulberry Street and Lafayette Street was vacated in 2009 for the development of the Human Services Campus. The vacated Elm Street to the northwest of Lafayette Street provides additional parking for the Waterloo Women's Center for Change. Brian Johnson with Waterloo Water Works noted that an easement will be needed for the 12" water main located in Elm Street. Also, there are 7 inactive water stubs tapped into the Elm Street water main that will need to be killed and plugged at the main. There is an 8" fire line for 1515 Sycamore Street that is tapped into the Elm Street water main, as well. Jamie Knutson, City Engineer, stated that the layout of the parking stalls may need to be adjusted to account for the location of the poles for the overhead utilities. Detention will be needed for the new parking areas. Schroeder explained that the parking within the vacated Elm Street is shown as having no setback from the northwest property line and this could cause issues with the truck parking lot adjacent to the site in question. The site plan has been updated to show a 10' setback between the northwest property line and the parking within the vacate area. There would be no platting required in relation to the request. Therefore, staff recommends that the request by the City of Waterloo to vacate Elm Street from Sycamore Street to Lafayette Street, located adjacent to 1515 Sycamore Street, be approved for the following reasons: 1. The request to vacate would not appear to have a negative impact on the surrounding area. 2. The vacate request would not appear to have a negative impact on vehicular or pedestrian conditions in the area Vacate- Elm Street Page 4 of 5 Page 23 of 49 September 10, 2024 as there are no driveways located along Elm Street for any uses other than 1515 Sycamore Street and there are other streets in the area that can be used. 3. The vacate will provide additional parking for the redevelopment of a historic building in Waterloo into 87 affordable residential units. Subject to the following condition: 1. That a utility easement be retained over, under and upon the entire area that is vacated to allow access to the existing 30" sanitary sewer line, 12" water line, the overhead electrical, and any other utilities for any future maintenance.

The applicant is requesting to rezone the area in question to allow for the installation of parking spaces to be used by the proposed affordable housing development at 1515 Sycamore Street (former Rath Administration Building). The request would not appear to have a negative impact on the surrounding neighborhood. The request to rezone the site in question would not appear to have a negative impact upon pedestrian and traffic conditions in the area. The area is accessed by Lafayette Street, which is classified as a collector street and Sycamore Street, which is classified as a local street.

The site is located in the Primary Growth Area as identified in the City's Comprehensive Plan adopted August 21, 2023. The applicant is requesting to rezone an approximately 0.21 acre area to "C-P" Planned Commercial District to allow for additional parking for up to 87 new affordable housing units in the former Rath Administration Building. The "C-P" zoning will provide a consistent zoning district for the site at 1515 Sycamore Street and the additional parking area. The Rath Administration Building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Redevelopment of the site will be beneficial for the City of Waterloo, as the old, dilapidated structure will be used to help individuals have affordable housing and would save the historic structure from demolition. The additional parking from vacated Elm Street will benefit the project and the future residents and visitors of the site. The Zoning Ordinance automatically rezones half of a vacated street, but we are requesting the rezone separately for uniformity of the site. There were no comments on this request by the Technical Review Committee. There is no platting in relation to this request. 1515 Sycamore St Rezone "M-2" to "C-P" Page 30 of 49 September 10, 2024 STAFF Therefore, staff recommends that the request by the City of Waterloo RECOMMENDATION to rezone approximately 0.21 acres from "M-2" Heavy Industrial District to "C-P" Planned Commercial District located adjacent to 1515 Sycamore Street, be approved for the following reasons: 1.

The applicant is proposing 122 - 151 parking stalls on the existing site at 1515 Sycamore Street and the potential to add 58 parking stalls in the vacated Elm Street area. There would not appear to be a negative impact on the area as the area is composed of many industrial businesses with on - site parking and the site will have up to 180 on -site parking stalls with the vacation of Elm Street. There is approximately 43 on street parking spaces available along Division Street and Sycamore Street if overflow parking is needed. The request would not appear to have a negative impact on vehicular or pedestrian conditions in the area as there are no driveways located along Elm Street for any uses other than 1515 Sycamore Street. The use of vacated Elm Street for parking will provide additional on -site parking and lessen the use of the on -street parking surrounding the development. There are sidewalks along the east and west sides of Elm Street and along Sycamore Street and Lafayette Street. The sidewalks along Elm Street will be removed with the development of additional parking in the vacated area. The Cedar Valley Lakes Trail is located a quarter of a mile to the south along the north side of the Cedar River. The proposed Site Plan Amendment area is currently zoned "M-2" Heavy Industrial District and "C-P" Planned Commercial District. As part of a separate request the area zoned "M-2" Heavy Industrial District will be rezoned to "C-P" Planned Commercial District to create a consistent zoning district throughout the development. The area zoned "C-P" Planned Commercial District was rezoned from "M-2" Heavy Industrial District on May 6, 2024. Surrounding land uses and their zoning are as follows: North — Waterloo Women's Center for Change, Northeast Iowa Food Bank, and Operation Threshold, zoned "M-2" Heavy Industrial District. SPA— 1515 Sycamore St Page 1 of 6 Page 36 of 49 September 10, 2024 South — Crystal Distribution and vacant building, zoned "M-1" Light Industrial District. East — Cedar Valley Fish Market and other commercial uses, zoned "M-2" Heavy Industrial District. West —C&A Transport, zoned "M-1" Light Industrial District and "M-2" Heavy Industrial District. BUFFERS/ No screening is required for this request. SCREENING/ LANDSCAPING REQUIRED: DRAINAGE: DEVELOPMENT HISTORY: FLOODPLAIN: PUBLIC /OPEN SPACES/ SCHOOLS: Stormwater detention, a drainage report, and civil plans will need to be submitted to the Engineering Department as part of the redevelopment of the site. Two detention areas are shown on site plan options "A" and "B". The Human Services Campus to the north was constructed between 2010 and 2012. The other commercial and industrial development in the area was built between 1926 and 1999. The property is located within Zone X (Protected by Levee) which is not a Special Flood Hazard Area as indicated by the Federal Insurance Administration's Flood Insurance Rate Map, Community Number 190025 and Panel Number 0308F, dated July 18, 2011. Highland Elementary School is located approximately 0.92 miles to the northeast and Expo Alternative High School is located approximately 0.93 miles to the northeast of the site in question. East High School is approximately 0.7 miles to the northwest of the site. The Cedar River is located a quarter of a mile to the south, and Lafayette Park is located 2 blocks to the southeast of the area in question. UTILITIES: WATER, A 30" sanitary sewer and 12" water main is located within Elm SANITARY SEWER, Street. A 15" sanitary sewer line is located within Lafayette STORM SEWER, ETC. Street.

SPA — 1515 Sycamore St Page 4 of 6 Page 39 of 49 September 10, 2024 STAFF ANALYSIS — The applicant is requesting a site plan amendment in order to ZONING allow 122 to 180 parking stalls for the redevelopment of the ORDINANCE: former Rath Administration Building into 87 affordable housing units. The Site Plan Amendment is being requested, rather than a variance because the site is located within a Planned Commercial District which allows for greater flexibility in parking requirements. The developer submitted three different site plans for approval, as some options may be more cost effective. According to the Zoning Ordinance, the site will require 174 parking stalls (2 parking spaces per dwelling unit). Division Street and Sycamore Street provide on -street parking that can be used by the residents and visitors of the residential complex. There are approximately 43 on -street parking spaces available along Division Street and Sycamore Street. For the two site plan options that do not show the vacation of Elm Street, Elm Street is shown to provide an additional 29 on street parking spaces. Site Plan "A" shows 122 parking spaces for the redevelopment of 1515 Sycamore without the vacation of Elm Street. This option provides more greenspace for the development and approximately 1.40 parking stalls per unit. The 72 on -street parking stalls and 122 on site parking stalls creates a total of 194 parking stalls available for the residential development. Site Plan "B" shows the vacated street will provide 58 additional parking spaces for the development with 122 parking spaces shown on the existing site, for a total of 180 parking spaces. The vacated street will allow the applicant to exceed the parking requirement by 6 parking stalls. Between the 122 on -site parking stalls, the 58 parking stalls created from the vacated street, and the approximately 43 on -street parking spaces, the site will exceed the requirement of 2 parking spaces per dwelling unit (174 parking spaces) by providing 2.56 parking spaces per dwelling unit (223 parking spaces). The parking is within the vacated Elm Street is shown to be set back 10' from the property line, creating a buffer between the parking lot and the truck parking site to the northwest. Site Plan "C" shows 151 parking spaces within the existing site at 1515 Sycamore Street. This option allows for more parking with slightly less greenspace than the other options and approximately 1.73 parking spaces per unit. The 72 on street parking spaces and the 151 on site parking spaces creates a total of 223 parking spaces available for this development. This amount exceeds the requirement of 174 parking spaces by 49 spaces. SPA — 1515 Sycamore St Page 5 of 6 Page 40 of 49 "STAFF ANALYSIS — SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE: STAFF RECOMMENDATION: September 10, 2024 The Cedar Valley Fish Market uses some on street parking along Division Street for their customers. They also have an agreement with a nearby property owner to use their parking lot for the Cedar Valley Fish Market. This agreement does lessen the use of the on -street parking along Division Street. The area is composed of industrial and commercial uses that each have on -site parking for their employees and visitors. There is on street parking available along Division Street and Elm Street and the site will still provide up to 180 parking stalls for residents and visitors. The applicant is proposing a site plan that uses all the space possible for parking without demolishing a portion of the historic building and with vacating Elm Street. The historic building is being redeveloped which restricts the developer to use the small amount of space available for parking. The area is not being subdivided. Therefore, staff recommends that the request by 1515 Sycamore, LLC for a Site Plan Amendment to allow for redevelopment of the Rath Administration Building into 87 residential units, including the potential to add parking within vacated Elm Street and allowing for a total of 122 - 180 parking spaces, less than the 174 parking spaces required in the "C-P" Planned Commercial District located at 1515 Sycamore Street, be approved for the following reasons: 1. The request would not appear to have a negative impact on traffic conditions in the area. 2. The request would not appear to have a negative impact on the surrounding area. 3. The Site Plan Amendment will provide additional parking for the redevelopment of a historic building in Waterloo into 87 affordable residential units. And subject to the following conditions(s): 4. That the final site plan meets all applicable city codes, regulations, etc. including, but not limited to, parking, landscaping, screening, drainage, etc. SPA — 1515 Sycamore St Page 6 of 6 Page 41 of 49 City of Waterloo Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission September 10, 2024 0* WA T� 111111! :1111��wirmi ILER ST MOM 1515 Sycamore Street Site Plan Amendment 1515Sycamore, LLC �S Iv11. n,...... n n .,t n r City of Waterloo Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission September 10, 2024 QNNR.OpentreetMap•. ? ph, GeoT$•r,a.i GZ i= � � F �y� x. 5 Ce n. `r 6:11 66,1y:• 1515 Sycamore Site Plan Amendment 1515 Sycamore, LLC VI 9/5/2024 10:30:32 AM 1 15 14 w 17 18'-0" TYP. 0 0) 14 14 0 LAFAYETTE STREET W ce z 0 z w 1- w 0 -J 1- Z w 0 a 0 N H 24'-0" TYP. 59 NEW PARKING SPACES 10 4 ACCESS. 24' - 0" 1 VAN 11'-0"8'-0" � NEW LANDSCAPING 17 TOTAL = 122 PARKING SPACES EXISTING, RE —STRIPE 62 PARKING SPACES 14 14 17 w z 0 z w w 0 RATH BLDG.
