is unable to ;rezone the potential commercial area to PuD since City Code requires that a site plan <br />be considered simultaneously. Once a proposal is brought forward concerning the commercial <br />area, the City will need to process a Comprehensive Plan Amendment and rezoning to facilitate <br />the commercial development. <br /> <br />The existing Comprehensive Plan shows expected land uses on this property to be Low, <br />Medium, and High Residential Density. Below is a table showing the expected density and the <br />proposed density. <br /> <br />Comprehensive AllOwable Net : summerset <br />Plan Density'* Meadows N6t <br />Land Use Category ~ Density.** ... <br />Low Density Up to 3,0 units per 2.75 units per acre <br />Residential acre/4 units per acre <br /> with PUD <br />Medium Density Between 3.I to 7.1~ 5.98 units per acre <br />Residential units per acre <br />High Density Between 7.1 to 15 12.61 units per <br />Residential units per acre acre** * <br /> <br />* Net Density excludes wetlands and major road right of ways (State Aid Routes, County and State Roads). <br />** This calculation takes out wetlands, the 300-foot wide Mississippi River Bridge Corridor and the extension of <br />Bunker Lake Blvd. <br />*** The net area to be developed as part of this plat that is zoned R~3 (High Density Residential) is 15.856 acres. <br />Wetlands, major road right-of-way, and outlots have been excluded. <br /> <br />Puke Homes is proposing that the subdivision be rezoned to a Planned Unit Development (PUD) <br />due to their desire to introduce neighborhood design elements as well as to make up for the loss <br />of nearly 14 acres being given to the City for the future Mississippi River Bridge crossing create <br />a unique neighborhood. The following is a listing of City Code items that you 'are requesting <br />permission to deviate from via the PUD process <br /> <br />· Smaller lot sizes for urban single-family lots. <br />· Narrower lot widths for urban single-family lotsl <br /> Ability to construct small lot single-family lots in area <br /> Residential <br /> Narrower public road right-of-way than required. <br />· Four 12-unit townhome buildings (Lots 5-8, Block 7) in <br /> Medium Density Residential <br />· Reduced comer side-yard setbacks for two ( Lot 1, Block 3 and Lot 5, Block 6). <br /> <br />guided as Medium Density <br /> <br />area previously zoned <br /> <br />As part of the PUD rezoning request, a determination will be made whether these deviations <br />from City Code are acceptable. <br /> <br />The grading, drainage, streets, and utilities plan are generally acceptable subject to the comments <br />contained in the StaffReview Letter. <br /> <br />Density Transitioning will be required along the northern most eastern property line, which abuts <br />properties currently zoned Rural Reserve. <br /> <br />86 <br /> <br /> <br />
