A PUBLIC HEARING AND AN ORDINANCE TO CONSIDER A SUBDIVISION PLAT FOR 25 NORTH CENTRAL AVENUE (OPUS DEVELOPMENT PROJECT)

On August 24, 2015, the City of Clayton received an application, plat and supporting documents from Joe Downs, Partner, Opus Development Company, LLC, developer/owner under contract, of 25 North Central Avenue, for a subdivision plat in support of the development of a new mixed-use project.
Louis County within 30 days and has subsequently expired. On August 24, 2015, the City of Clayton received an application, plat and supporting documents from Joe Downs, Partner, Opus Development Company, LLC, developer/owner under contract, of 25 North Central Avenue, for a subdivision plat in support of the development of a new mixed-use project. The project consists of the demolition of the existing structures at 25 North Central Avenue, and the construction of a 123,806-square-foot, 6-story (+/- 69 feet) building located on top of a 2 level below grade parking structure. The building will contain 13,297 square feet of ground floor retail, 121 residential units (9 studio units, 30 alcove units, 38 one-bedroom units, 43 two-bedroom units, and 1 guest suite), and 145 parking spaces. The proposed plat consolidates five existing lots (Lots 10-12 and parts of Lots 13 & 14, Block 5 in the Town (now City) of Clayton) that have historically been under common ownership and addressed as 25 North Central Avenue. The plat also provides for an 800-square-foot right-of-way dedication to the City along the southern alley to allow it to be widened to meet city standards. The consolidated lot will measure 31,942 square feet. The Plan Commission reconsidered this request at its September 9, 2015 meeting and voted unanimously to recommend approval. Staff recommends approval of the plat as presented. Alderman Winings recused himself from the meeting. Mayor Sanger closed the public hearing.
