property into Parcels A and B is subject to approval by the city of St. Helens.
The irregular shape property has its primary frontage at the corner of NE Kelly and Howard Streets. Howard
Street provides one of the entry streets to Columbia Commons Business Park from Highway 30, and would be
the primary access to Parcel B. The other access is from Commons Drive to the northwest corner of Parcel A.
The bulk of the site is relatively level, with a drop in elevation toward the western section, by Commons Drive,
which contains an estimated 9,583± square feet of wetlands, based on a 2007 Wetland Delineation Report.
The property was originally purchased for a townhome development. Other plans outlined were for a 79 lot
residential subdivision, with some retail use by Howard Street.
The majority of the property is zoned mixed-use, which allows a range of uses, including single family
subdivision, with a minimum lot size of 5,000± square feet. The zoning designations of General Commercial
and Highway Commercial apply to less than 1± acre at Howard and Kelly Streets. (Please see Supplemental
Information Package for zoning detail and deed restriction related to medical uses.)
Additional options for a mixed-use development of the property could include office and commercial uses
along the entry to Columbia Commons Business Park, with the balance developed with senior housing, and
apartments targeted to the affordable housing market. It could also be master-planned in its entirety, with retail
and commercial uses that need a large site.
Both water and sewer services are available to the property.
