COMMISSION BUSINESS 6.01: Review Sketch Plan for Rivenwick Subdivision (Project No. 19-02); Case of Paxmar Presentation Community Development Director Gladhill presented the staff report stating the purpose of this case is to review a sketch plan for a subdivision within the Rivenwick neighborhood. City Code states the Planning Commission shall advise the subdivider of the extent to which the plan conforms to the requirements of the community and the ability of the City to provide essential services and may discuss possible modifications necessary to secure approval of the subdivision. Community Development Director Gladhill explained the developer is Paxmar and the proposed project is located within the Mixed Use Planned Unit Development (MU/PUD) District. It is guided the same in the Comprehensive Plan. He stated the development is proposed to be made up of three main components. The MU/PUD is the guiding, or umbrella district. Within that guidance, staff is applying the appropriate traditional districts for review based on the land use and density types. Staff displayed a map of the subject site to point out the following district: 1. Two -acre Commercial parcel (using the B-2 Business District for review); 2. Two -acre Assisted Living parcel (using the R-3 Residential District [high density residential] for review); and, 3. Detached Townhome Neighborhood (using the R-2 Residential District [medium density residential] for review). Community Development Director Gladhill noted this is a unique District that is only applied in a couple areas of the community and the Rivenwick Neighborhood is the only existing neighborhood/development where the District actually applies. He explained the main intent of this District is to provide flexibility in final layout versus strict District boundaries. This should not be interpreted to require Urban Mixed -Use buildings. The current version of the MU/PUD District states that any one use may not comprise of more than 75% of the project area. According to staff review for the original subdivision, this remaining parcel was to develop as a Planning Commission/March 7, 2019 Page 2 of 7
