Developer seeks rezoning, preliminary plat for 16-acre 'Quail Crossing' near 40 Second Street and Highway 370
Summary
Quail Crossing LLC asked the Bellevue City Council on Feb. 18 for rezoning of about 16 acres to allow five commercial lots and a multifamily site; the council opened the public hearing and scheduled third reading for March 4, 2025.
At the Bellevue City Council meeting on Feb. 18, 2025, representatives for Quail Crossing LLC presented a request to rezone roughly 16 acres at South 40 Second Street and Highway 370 and filed a preliminary plat for a mixed commercial and multifamily development.
Kyle Hohl, civil engineer with E and A Consulting Group, told the council the preliminary plat proposes five commercial lots ranging "in size from 3 quarter to 2 and a half acres" and a multifamily site to the south. Hohl said the multifamily portion is currently projected at about 90 apartment units and the project would bring an assessed value of about "$26,000,000 to the, city of Bellevue." He said a traffic study proposed improvements to 40 Second Street, including two southbound lanes and a designated right-turn lane into the project.
Councilwoman Welch asked whether all lots would require site-plan review. Tammy Palm, a city staff member, said the five commercial lots would not require site-plan approval while the multifamily lot that abuts Moss Road would require a future site-plan review: "So it would only be for the multifamily piece, not for the commercial lots that are proposed." Hohl added that commercial users were not finalized and called proposed uses "extremely preliminary," listing possibilities such as a gas station, hotel layout options, daycare or fast-food uses.
The rezoning application seeks to change the zoning from AG and RE to BG and RG20PS, as described in ordinance number 4,176. The applicant team on the record included Hohl and members identified as Austin Auf, Todd Moffitt and Robbie Ryan. No members of the public spoke during the council’s public hearing.
The council closed the hearing and staff said the item will return for third reading on March 4, 2025, when the council will consider final action on ordinance 4,176 and the related preliminary plat (Quail Crossing, lots 1–6 and outlots A and B). The developer will return later with a site plan for the multifamily parcel before any building permits are issued for that portion.
Background: The ordinance reads that the rezoning would amend the official zoning map as provided by article 3 of ordinance 4,136 and sets an effective date if adopted. The council did not take a final vote on Feb. 18; the matter remains pending third reading.
