He explained the proposed renovations and stated that the reason a rezoning was required <br />was the previous zoning district did not allow certain proposed uses to be open to the <br />public. The current zoning would allow for that option, and the parking reconfiguration <br />was also included in the overall redevelopment proposal. He added that the remainder of <br />the facility would remain the same, functioning as a senior living facility. <br /> <br />Nikki Goldstein with Crown Center was present to address any questions from the Plan <br />Commission. <br /> <br />Questions/Comments from the Plan Commission members and responses from the applicant <br />included: <br /> <br />- Would there be a drop-off area for patrons? It was stated that the circle drive would be <br />eliminated, but there would still be a drop-off area. <br />- What would the seating capacity be for the café? Mr. Greatens stated that it would be 20, <br />as stated in the application material. <br />- Would the garden area be open to the public? Ms. Goldstein stated that the hope would <br />be that people from the community could get involved with different activities at Crown <br />Center, particularly seniors. <br /> <br />Mayor Welsch stated there was a new commission to address senior issues and it was <br />anticipated that a representative from Crown Center would come discuss new <br />programming with them. <br /> <br />- It was also stated that Crown Center also served as an election polling location for <br />University City and the additional parking would be an advantage for voter convenience. <br /> <br />Mr. Greatens stated that the Final Development Plan was in compliance with the approved <br />Preliminary Development Plan.
