Motion carried. 7.02: Adopt Resolution #22-102 Approving Preliminary Plat for Rivenwick Village 4th Addition (Project No. 22-109); Case of LGI Homes Deputy City Administrator/Community Dev. Director Hagen reviewed the staff report and recommendation to adopt the resolution approving the preliminary plat for Rivenwick Village 41h Addition. He stated the applicant is in attendance. Councilmember Musgrove commented she supported this addition. She had reviewed the Planning Commission and EPB meetings and there were a lot of comments from City Staff and WSP that vetted this project well. She believed the developer has stated he is willing to work on those changes for the final plat and suggested having offset streets off Jasper Street into the neighborhood. She stated she is supportive of it and appreciated Staff's review of the details. Deputy City Administrator/Community Dev. Hagen replied that offset streets were an initial comment by Staff where initial review thought it would make sense. Through discussion with the developer that is likely not going to happen but improvements would be implemented in the development to allow for better turning. He stated it is likely going to stay as shown. He stated there were several initial comments by Staff that went to the Planning Commission. The plans presented tonight have been revised by the developer. Mayor Pro Tem Riley asked the developer to explain the project. Jay Roos, LGI Homes, stated the property is under contract and they are looking at finalizing the purchase agreement to move forward with the project. He stated the project plans include 27 townhome units. He stated there has been direction on this property from Council and the Planning Commission to extend 139 h Street through the property and maintaining commercial on the north side along with residential on the south side. He stated LGI is not a commercial developer so they haven't looked at marketing that property because they don't own it yet. If the purchase agreement goes through, they would look at marketing the commercial property to incorporate a commercial real estate company to help them with the marketing of that. That would require a site plan approval whether it is one commercial user or two. He stated there is a cross ponding agreement that was put into place when Suite Living was built that is a shared pond and there is the ability to make the pond larger with a commercial project. He stated it would be a single tier attached units with the corner units being three bedroom, two bath units. The interior units are two bedroom, one bathroom. He explained the similarities and difference between this one and their Monticello project.
