LAND USE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR OTHER PERIMETER AREAS Interstate 94 Office and Industrial Areas (Plan Amendment,August 21,2006) The area surrounding the CTH N / I-94 interchange serves as an important gateway to the Village. North of I-94,to the east and west of CTH N,approximately 330 acre of Planned Office development is proposed in this Plan.This area has the potential for becoming a regionally-significant office park. Planned Office land uses are also recommended for 90 acres between Gaston Road and I-94 east of Mulhall Street,with strips of Neighborhood Office on each end acting as buffers to existing residential development. Because development throughout these areas has strong visual exposure to I-94, aesthetic treatments for building design and materials, signage,landscaping and streetscaping should reflect the fact that this development will establish the primary image of the community.Among the recommendations for these areas are strict landscaping requirements,coordinated signage policies, and complete pedestrian and bicycle accommodations. In 2003,the Village determined to move ahead with the development of the Cottage Grove Interstate Commerce Park in the southeast quadrant of the IH-94/CTH N interchange,east of Blackhawk Airport.The northern and western edges of the Park,with their visual exposure to I-94 and CTH N are improved for Planned Office development consisting of high-quality office and office- support land uses, such as quality restaurants,lodging facilities,and financial institutions. Planned Office development is also proposed along the west frontage of CTH N,both north and south of Gaston Road. The interior portions of the Commerce Park are planned for a combination of high- quality office,research and high value light industrial uses.All of these uses are included within the Planned Industrial land use category depicted on the Land Use Plan Map. The Land Use Plan Map depicts a mix of land use categories for the Blackhawk Airport area and the area located immediately east of the Airport.Planned Office uses should extend along the northern portion of this area—taking advantage of the excellent access to the interchange along an extension of East Gaston Road,and the strong visual exposure to I-94. Residential uses,including Planned Neighborhood and Single Family Residential,are proposed for the central and southern portions of this area to allow for a smooth transition into planned and existing residential areas to the south. Strong bicycle and pedestrian facilities should be provided throughout this area,including under I-94, to ensure safe and convenient travel options to the rest of the Village.
