Preliminary Plat Review: Sumrnerset Meadows <br />September 30, 2005 <br /> <br />· Narrower lot widths for urban single-family lots. <br />· Ability to construct small lot single*family lots in area guided as Medium Density <br /> Residential <br />· Narrower public road right-of-way than required. <br />· Four 12-unit townhome buildings (Lots 5-8, Blbck 7) in area previously zoned R- <br /> 2 Medium Density Residential <br />· Reduced corner side-yard setbacks for 18 lots (Lot. 1, Block 3 and Lot 5, Block 6). <br /> <br />As part of the PUD rezoning request, a determination Will be'made whether these <br />deviations tkom City Code are acceptable. <br /> <br />Zoning/Land Use/Density: The property currently has several zoning designations, R-l,' <br />R-2, R-3, and TC-2. You are proposing to. rezone the entire property to Planned Unit <br />Development (PUD). The current zoning district locations are shown on Page 5 of 35 of <br />the Engineering Plans. Given the fact that you are planning to reserve some land for <br />possible commercial development, Staff will recommend to the Planning Commission <br />and City Council that this land retains its current zoning designation (R-2, R-3, and TC- <br />2). The City is unable to rezone the potential commercial area to PUD since City Code <br />requires that a site plan be considered simultaneously. Once a proposal is. brought <br />tbrward concerning the commercial area, the City will need to process a Comprehensive <br />Plan Amendment and rezoning to facilitate the commercial development. <br /> <br />The existing Comprehensive Plan shows expected land uses on this property (Low, <br />Medium, High Residential Density). Below is a table showing the expected density and <br />the proposed density. <br /> <br /> Comprehensive Allowable Net .'.~ Summerset <br /> Plan <br /> Density~ <br /> ' .i ~':~Mead°WsNet <br /> ~,~ : ~ D%SitY;.
