Explanation
Rezoning Amendment: Z18-050A
Ordinance #1765-2019, passed July 15, 2019 (Z18-050), rezoned 153.7± acres from the R, Rural District to the PUD-6 Planned Unit Development District for single- and multi-unit residential development totaling 765 units in three sub-areas. That legislation contained commitments that prohibited garage-forward design for single-unit dwellings in Sub-area A. At the time this legislation was approved, the developer of Sub-area A was not identified, and specific model home elevation renderings were unavailable. This legislation will amend Ordinance #1765-2019 by modifying the PUD Text to permit certain model homes with a garage-forward design in order to meet the marketing needs of the developer. Planning Division Staff has reviewed the elevation renderings for consistency with similar proposals in the area and applicable Traditional Neighborhood Development criteria, and supports deviation from this provision with the inclusion of the attached elevation renderings in this ordinance. Additionally, the PUD Plan has been slightly modified to account for wetlands that were discovered in the southwest quadrant of the site. The resulting changes eliminate one public street connection to the subdivision to the south but increase Parkland Dedication and tree preservation areas. The densities in Sub-areas A and C were also slightly adjusted. The revised plan was fully vetted by zoning staff, the Traffic Management Division, the Planning Division, and the Recreation and Parks Department. All other aspects of Ordinance #1765-2019 remain in effect and are included in this amendment.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
