Agenda - Planning Commission - 10/28/2021

Home

Further discussion: Paul Tabone, representing Lennar Homes, stated he appreciates the City's support on this project, and willingness to consider the 25-foot setback. He asked whether the City Council would consider having the density transition zone as an easement rather than an outlot, which would eliminate the need for a variance. He added this development will have an HOA as there will be townhomes. He noted he is still requesting the 25-foot variance. Councilmember Woestehoff stated he will not support an amendment to change the outlot to an easement in this case. He added the HOA owns the parcel as opposed to deeding it out to the properties, and it makes sense to keep it as an outlot. Councilmember Heineman agreed. Mr. Tabone requested feedback and comment from the City Council regarding the 25-foot setback request. Councilmember Musgrove stated there seems to be a consensus from the City Council to support that request, which must be reviewed by the Planning Commission. City Administrator Ulrich stated it would not be appropriate to include a variance for setback in the motion, which is a request for rezoning. He added proposed setbacks would be addressed in the preliminary plat.
