This item received a positive recommendation by the Planning Commission and will go to City Council on Tuesday August 23rd

The applicant is requesting review and recommendation of the River Point Phase 2 Preliminary Subdivision. The proposed development is requesting to be built as a Planned Unit Development (PUD). It would be at the discretion of the Planning Commission and City Council to determine if a PUD would be appropriate at this location. The first phase of the River Point development was approved on April 12, 2022 as a PUD. Planned Unit Development, or PUD, is a residential overlay that allows applicants to cluster development to provide varied lot sizes and open space.

The density for PUDs is determined based on the underlying zoning district. This plan shows the allowed amount of density, 257 units, based on the underlying zoning district of R-2 and R-3. The overall development shown in the concept plan does meet the minimum of 10% open space required. The open space for this phase will be included in future phases of the development.

The proposed development is for 257 units and would be a mixture of single-family lots and rear-load townhomes. The townhomes are shown to be fronting open space and public roads. The remainder of the property will consist of single-family homes of ranging sizes to provide variety throughout the subdivision. Roads will be connected to the Gardner Point and Cold Spring Ranch developments to provide connectivity throughout the subdivisions. This phase will also provide a trail connection from 3600 West that will run west and connect into the Gardner Point development to provide increased connectivity.

The applicant is requesting an exception to the maximum block length and connectivity requirements in the southern portion of the development for not connecting to Park Drive. Park Drive is a road stub from the Cold Spring Ranch Subdivision. The exception is being requested due to grade in the area. In the Development Code, grade is listed as a reason that an exception could be granted for not meeting connectivity requirements. The Planning Commission and City Council will need to determine if an exception is warranted in this situation.
