Public meeting on Bayfront District

to be held January 27

The City of Duluth Planning Division invites the public to attend and participate in a meeting on January 27, 2010 at 6:30 PM to discuss the Small Area Plan for the Bayfront District. The meeting will take place in Room 405 in Duluth City Hall.

The City Planning Division and Duluth Economic Development Authority (DEDA) staff will be presenting the draft recommendations for the Bayfront District Small Area Plan. A question and answer session will follow the presentation.  

The purpose of this Plan is to establish criteria for revising the Duluth Comprehensive Plan, Future Land Use Map, and changing the Bayfront District’s current “Industrial” designation to a category that will allow for a more appropriate and desirable mix of land uses. 

For this Small Area Plan, the City Planning Division has compiled information and recommendations assembled in previous plans, obtained input from a representative stakeholders committee, and collected additional public comment from a December 2009 meeting.

City staff will analyze any additional comments generated and present a draft of the Bayfront District Small Area Plan to the City Planning Commission in February and present the completed Plan to the City Council in March of this year.

Questions can be directed to the Planning Division at (218) 730-5580.
