BACKGROUND
On October 28, 2020, City Council held a public hearing and approved an application for a Planned Development District for MU-1 Mixed Use District uses with the ordinance to return on the November 11, 2020, Council agenda.
The applicant proposes to develop a portion of the site with an approximately 300-unit multifamily development with future multifamily and retail developments on the remainder of the area of request.
At the October 28, 2020 hearing, Council moved to approve a Planned Development District subject to a conceptual plan, a Tract 1 development plan, and staff’s recommended conditions with the following changes.
1. Building permits for a driveway in Tract 4 may be issued without the approval of a development plan.
2. Multifamily uses in Tract 1 must include a minimum of 500 square feet of accessory storage, a minimum of one swimming pool, one playground, and one accessory community center (private).
3. The only uses permitted in Tract 2 are handicapped group dwelling unit, local utilities, multifamily, and single family.
4. Multifamily structures in Tract 2 must have a minimum of three dwelling units and dwelling units must be constructed side-by-side, not stacked vertically, with doors opening to an outdoor walkway.
5. In Tracts 1 and 2, maximum number of dwelling units in each tract, is 300.
6. If a minimum of five percent of the total number of dwelling units in Tract 1 are provided at Income Band 3 and in compliance with Division 51A-4.1100, multifamily uses may provide reduced parking in the amount of a minimum 1.5 off-street parking spaces per dwelling unit. A minimum of 32 individual garages are required and may count towards the minimum parking requirement. Compliance with Section 51A-4.1107 is not required.
7. Before the issuance of a certificate of occupancy in Tract 1, a minimum six-foot-wide sidewalk must be constructed within the Crouch Road right-of-way that connects the Property with the Runyon Creek Trail, subject to approval by the director. The director may approve a reduction of the minimum sidewalk width if the existing right-of-way is not sufficient.

9. In Tract 1, a dog park is required to be located within the open space shown on the development plan.
