The project site is guided as a mix of Medium Density Residential (majority of site) and High <br /> Density Residential (small portion of site). <br /> 2. The proposed project is a mix of unattached Medium Density Residential (majority of site) and <br /> attached medium density residential (two small quadrants). <br /> 3. The City supports the utilization of a Planned Unit Development given the variety of unique <br /> housing types and styles and to allow flexibility in the application of land use standards. <br /> Medium Density Residential Character <br /> These areas are within the MUSA and intended to receive medium density housing including lower density <br /> multi-family housing and higher density single-family housing. Average density will be 6 units per acre. <br /> Planned Unit Development <br /> The intent of the Planned Unit Development District is to provide a district that will encourage flexibility <br /> in land development in order to 1) make better use of new techniques in building design and construction <br /> and land development, 2) housing affordable to all income groups, 3) more efficient use of public <br /> infrastructure,4) energy conservation through the use of more efficient building designs and through the <br /> clustering of buildings and land uses, 5) preservation of desirable land characteristics and open space and <br /> protection of sensitive environmental features such as steep slopes, poor soils and trees and 6) more <br /> effective and efficient use of land, open space and public facilities through the mixing of land uses and <br /> assembly and development of land in larger lots. <br /> Environmental Review <br /> 1. An Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) is mandatory. <br /> 2. An Alternative Urbanwide Area Review (AUAR) is another option in lieu of an EAW, but not <br /> recommended in this instance. <br />
