"A" LEGAL DESCRIPTION
"B" PROJECT AREA PLAN
"C" PROPOSED LAND USE
"D" ACQUISITION MAP
"E" EQUAL OPPORTUNITY AND NON
DISCRIMINATION GUIDELINES
- A. EXISTING CONDITIONS AND FINDINGS OF BLIGHT
- 1. DELINEATION OF BOUNDARIES
- The Lindenwood Scattered Sites Area ("Area") encompasses
approximately 0.69 acres in the North Hampton
neighborhood of the City of St. Louis ("City") and
includes six sites along Lindenwood Ave.
- The legal description of the Area is attached and labeled
Exhibit "A". The boundaries of the Area are delineated
on Exhibit "B" ("Project Area Plan").
- 2. GENERAL CONDITION OF THE AREA
- The Area comprises a portion of City Blocks 6032 and 6035
and includes the following addresses: 4959, 4962 64,
4967, 4971, 4974 76 and 4979 Lindenwood Ave. The Area is
in fair condition. The physical conditions within the
Area are shown on Exhibit "B" (Project Area Plan). For
the purpose of this Plan, "Fair Condition" means (1)
property that is generally structurally sound but suffers
from inadequate maintenance and upkeep, or (2) vacant
unimproved property that is under utilized. "Poor
Condition" means (1) buildings that are structurally
unsound and/or substantially deteriorated, requiring
major improvements such as new roofs, windows, systems,
etc., in order to be used productively, or (2) property
without buildings which is poorly maintained, has
crumbling pavement, and/or is used for open storage.
- Unemployment figures, computed by the Missouri State
Employment Service, indicate a 7.3% unemployment rate for
the City as of July 1998. It is estimated that this
rate is prevalent for residents of the neighborhoods
surrounding the Area.
- There are currently no jobs within the Area.
- 3. PRESENT LAND USE OF THE AREA
- Existing land uses within the Area include six
residential properties.
- The land use, including the location of public and
private uses, streets and other rights of way is shown on
Exhibit "B".
- 4. PRESENT LAND USE AND DENSITY OF SURROUNDING PROPERTIES
- The properties surrounding the Area are primarily used
for residential uses.
- Residential density for the surrounding neighborhoods is
approximately 13.22 persons per acre.
- 5. CURRENT ZONING
- The Area is zoned "C" Multi Family Dwelling District
pursuant to the Zoning Code of the City, which is
incorporated in this Plan by reference.
- 6. FINDING OF BLIGHT
- The property within the Area is partially occupied and in
fair condition (as defined in Section A(2) above). The
existence of deteriorated property constitutes both an
economic liability to the City of St. Louis and presents
a hazard to the health and well being of its citizens.
These conditions, therefore, qualify the Area as blighted
within the meaning of Section 99.300 et seq. of the
Revised Statutes of Missouri (the Land Clearance for
Redevelopment Authority Law).
- B. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT AND REGULATIONS
- 1. DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVES
- The primary objective of this Plan is to facilitate the
development of the Area into productive residential uses.
- 2. PROPOSED LAND USE OF THE AREA
- The proposed land uses for the Area are residential uses
permitted in Areas designated "C" Multi Family Dwelling
District by the City of St. Louis Zoning Code.
Redevelopers contracting with the Land Clearance for
Redevelopment Authority of the City of St. Louis ("LCRA")
to develop property in the Area (hereafter referred to as
"Redeveloper") shall be permitted to use said property
only for the proposed land use.
- Exhibit "C" (Proposed Land Use) shows the proposed uses
for the Area.
- 3. PROPOSED ZONING
- The zoning for the Area can remain "C" Multi Family
Dwelling District. All land coverage and building
intensities shall be governed thereby.
- 4. RELATIONSHIP TO LOCAL OBJECTIVES
- The proposed land uses, zoning, public facilities and
utility plans are appropriate and consistent with local
objectives as defined by the General Plan of the City of
St. Louis which includes the "Comprehensive City Plan"
(1947), the "St. Louis Development Program" (1973), and
the "Economic Development Strategy" (1978). Any specific
proposal to the LCRA for development of the Area or any
portion of the Area shall contain, among other things,
adequate provisions for traffic, vehicular parking,
safety from fire, adequate provisions for light and air,
sound design and arrangement and improved employment
opportunities.
- 5. PROPOSED EMPLOYMENT FOR THIS AREA
- No new jobs will be created in this Area because the
proposed development is residential.
- 6. CIRCULATION
- The Proposed Land Use Plan (Exhibit "C") indicates the
proposed circulation system for the Area. The layouts,
levels and grades of all public rights of way may remain
unchanged.
- Rights of way changes will be subject to the review and
approval of the City Department of Streets, and all
vacations of rights of way are subject to approval by
ordinance.
- 7. BUILDING AND SITE REGULATIONS
- The Area shall be subject to all applicable federal,
state and local laws, ordinances, regulations and codes,
including but not limited to, the City Building Code,
Zoning District Regulations, and stipulations of the
Heritage and Urban Design Commission ("HUDC") of the
City. The population densities, land coverage, and
building intensities of redevelopment shall be governed
by the Zoning Code. No changes in the building codes or
ordinances are required.
- Each Redeveloper shall develop the Area in accordance
with this Plan and the Redevelopment Agreement, and shall
maintain all structures, equipment, paved areas, and
landscaped areas controlled by the Redeveloper in good
and safe order both inside and outside, structurally and
otherwise, including necessary and proper painting.
Failure to meet these requirements may result in
suspension of tax abatement.
- 8. URBAN DESIGN
- a. Urban Design Objectives
- The properties shall be developed so they are
attractive residential assets to the surrounding
neighborhood.

in terms of design and materials. Window and door

original design.
- New construction shall be compatible in design with
the surrounding neighborhood, if any, in terms of
scale, materials, set back, profile and site
layout.
- c. Landscaping
- The property shall be well landscaped. Perimeter
street trees of a minimum caliper of 2 1/2 inches
and generally 30 35 feet on center, depending upon
tree type, utilities, curb cuts, etc., shall be
provided along all public or private streets
preferably in tree lawns along the curb. If
necessary, sidewalks shall be notched to
accommodate the trees.
- Ornamental or shade trees should be provided in the
front lawns along with evergreen accent shrubs.
- Existing, healthy trees shall be retained, if
feasible.
- 9. PARKING REGULATIONS
- Parking shall be provided in accordance with the
applicable zoning and building code requirements of the
City, including HUDC standards. This will provide
adequate vehicular parking for the Area.
- Where feasible, parking shall be limited to the rear of
the property off the alley, and at least one space shall
be provided for each residential unit.
- 10. SIGN REGULATIONS
- All new signs shall be limited as set out in the City
Code, HUDC stipulations, this Plan and contracts between
the LCRA and the Redeveloper. All new signs shall be
restricted to standard sale/lease signs.
- 11. BUILDING, CONDITIONAL USE AND SIGN PERMITS
- No building, conditional use, or sign permits shall be
issued by the City without the prior written approval of
the LCRA.
- 12. PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS
- No additional schools, parks, recreational and community
facilities or other public facilities will be required.
Additional water, sewage or other public utilities may be

utility improvements will be borne by the Redeveloper.
- If funds are available to the LCRA, it may provide public
improvements including, but not limited to, measures for
the control of traffic, improvements to street lighting,
street trees, and any other improvements which may
further the objectives of this Plan.
- When developed in accordance with this Plan, the Area will
comprise a coordinated, adjusted and harmonious development
that promotes the health, safety, morals, order, convenience,
prosperity, the general welfare, efficiency and economy of the
City.
- C. PROPOSED SCHEDULE OF DEVELOPMENT
- The implementation of this Plan shall take place in a single
phase initiated within approximately one (1) year of approval

warrant.
- D. EXECUTION OF PROJECT
