The Hallmark of Creve Coeur seniors residential facility has applied for conditional use permit approval to allow skilled nursing care and assisted living within the existing facility. No exterior changes are proposed for the facility, although additional parking will have to be constructed in the future if the City determines that there is a parking shortfall after the additional services are provided. 

The Planning Commission forwarded a positive recommendation to the City Council at their meeting on May 17, 2010, and a public hearing before the City Council occurred on July 12. Final approval could be granted on August 9.

Cross Homes and Associates, Inc., initially proposed to dispense with the approved duplex subdivision and applied for a rezoning to “PRD” Planned Residential Development.  The plan included 11 new houses, plus the existing duplex units and detention basin.  It did not include the one original house from the old Ladue Court Subdivision.  After considering a variety of factors, including the difficulty of expanding the capabilities of the existing detention basin, Cross Homes submitted a revised site plan showing only eight new houses, along with the existing duplex.  This returns the project to the same density as the existing RDD approval.  Given that they are no longer increasing density and the RDD ordinance (Ordinance #3014, “The Villas at Ladue Court”) did not establish any other standards than those indicated on the plat, the applicant needed only request a boundary adjustment to the existing plat from the Planning Commission; no City Council review was required. It should be pointed out, however, that they chose to better define their setback provisions as follows:

• 20-foot front
• 30-foot rear
• 15-foot side

The area of the subdivision is 5.12 acres and the gross density is 1.95 units/acre, where the “B” Single-family district allows 2.178 units/acre.  The lot sizes range from 15,008 to 22,495 square feet where the minimum lot area in a typical “B” subdivision is 20,000 square feet.

The boundary adjustment plat was approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission on July 6, 2010.  Once the plat has been recorded with St. Louis County, they will be able to secure building permits for the single-family detached houses.

MBL Realty Corp. has submitted various applications needed for approval of a four-building (6 tenant) campus of retail uses on 2.8 acres.  Necessary approvals are a rezoning of six single-family residences from “C” Single-family Residential to “GC” General Commercial, a re-subdivision of the properties to form the development tract and site development plan approval of the project.

The address for the project is 11111 Olive Boulevard (Northwest corner of Schulte Road and Olive Boulevard including Mobil service station, adjacent three houses on Olive and two houses on Oak Lake Court).

A presentation to the Planning Commission was made on September 21, 2009, at which time issues were identified, especially regarding landscape design and traffic management. The proposal has since been delayed while a traffic study was completed and St. Louis County reviewed the portion of the project beyond the city limits. The applicant has submitted the traffic study and has received a positive recommendation from the St. Louis County Planning Commission on an essential rezoning adjacent to the City limit. The applicant presented the St. Louis County recommended plan to the Creve Coeur Planning Commission on March 1 at which time additional issues were identified related to MoDOT approvals, site planning, building materials and landscape design.  The application is currently tabled pending resolution of these issues.  A return date to the Planning and Zoning Commission has not been scheduled at this time.
