7. 3. CC Regular Session Meeting Date: 07/09/2024 Primary Strategic Plan Initiative: Promote economic growth and development. Information Title: Adopt Resolutions#24-169 and#24-170 Approving a Final Plat and Site Plan for "Skyline on Sunwood" for a mixed use building at 7545 Sunwood Drive NW(PSD LLC). Purpose/Background: Site Location The proposed site is on the north side of Sunwood Drive,between Sapphire Street and Center Street, and south of 145th Avenue NW. The 4-acre site is zoned COR-1 Mixed Use Core Subdistrict and guided as Mixed Use in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. Building Use The mixed-use building is comprised of residential rental apartments and retail spaces. The 133-unit residential portion of the building contains a mix of studio, 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom units on floors 2, 3, and 4. Resident amenity spaces are on the first and third floors featuring a swimming pool, fitness room, community rooms, business suites, a golf simulator, and a rooftop patio. The first floor contains enclosed parking areas along the east and west legs of the building. The overall density of the residential portion of the building is approximately 3 3.25 units/acre. The retail spaces,totaling approximately 13,776 square feet, are located on the first floor at the southeast and southwest corners of the building. The spaces are subdividable into six bays,three on each end. The anticipated construction type of the building will limit the use of the spaces to retail,personal service, and office users. Limited coffee shop and restaurant users (such as a sandwich shop) are possible,but due to the anticipated construction design and venting restrictions, full-scale restaurants are not possible. Building Design The building will have three parts in a general U-shape creating a courtyard for the parking lot. The side that fronts Sunwood Drive on the south will be four stories in height with a flat roof. It contains the main entrance to the apartments. This side also contains large windows for the retail spaces, all with direct access to the sidewalk along Sunwood Drive. The portion of the first floor with smaller windows has the resident business spaces behind them. The east and west legs of the building are only three stories in height with a hip roof and gables, similar to the roofline of the nearby Parkview East Apartments. The east and west portions of the first floor closest to Sunwood Drive has retail frontage wrapping around with a retail storefront(one each on Sapphire Street and Center Street). The west(Center Street) leg has amenity spaces at its north end with the community room and a two-story pool atrium. The middle portion of the west leg and the remainder of the east leg of the building will have parking behind the exterior walls. Some windows are provided. On the second and third stories of the east and west legs contain residential units. A rooftop patio is proposed above the pool atrium on the west leg. Exterior materials will consist of brick veneer, corrugated metal siding with a corten steel finish, and LP lap siding. Each unit will have a balcony and magic-pack HVAC units for each of the apartments. The materials are generally consistent with the COR-1 standards,though lap siding is considered a complimentary material and must be high quality(no vinyl siding).
