Title
Hope Street Lots 4 and 8-Informal Review of the Proposed Hotel and Office Development.
Recommended Action
The purpose of this Study Session is to present the Robert Green Company’s (RGC) preliminary development proposal for Hope Street Lots 4 and 8 and receive direction from City Council on key design topics. The proposed development is still in the early (informal) stages of design review. City Council input is necessary to help guide design revisions and continue the review process. City Council input during this study session is under the role as the land use authority, not as property owner for the public-private partnership for this project.
Staff’s current requests for input are tailored to the preliminary nature of the development submittal, focusing on features of the development which differ from the Downtown Precise Plan (DPP), previous City Council direction, City Code, and typical City practices and design objectives. The input provided by the City Council in this Study Session will shape the formal development proposal.
