A public hearing will be held at the St. Paul City Hall at 8:30 a.m. Friday to discuss design standards for the Ford Site.

Ford’s former Twin Cities Assembly Plant — a 135-acre area in Highland Park neighborhood — is being redeveloped. The development is intended to “support walking, biking and transit, and provide services, jobs and activities that every generation can enjoy,” according to city officials.

City officials asked for design standards in 2017 when they adopted the Ford Site Zoning and Public Realm Master Plan — the Ford Site Master Plan. The Ford Site design standards will be added to the master plan, with zoning amendments necessary for consistency, according to city officials.

Residents may comment on the proposed design standards at this hearing. Written and electronic testimonies also will be accepted, but it must include a street address to be considered part of the public record.

The hearing will be held in rooms 40A and B at 15 West Kellogg Blvd. in the basement of city hall.
