Re: Revised PINE 43 Preliminary Concept Plan and Preliminary Plat, R-15 and
R-40 Rezone and Annexation applications with Development Agreement,
Dear Ms. Allen,
The preliminary plat and concept plan for PINE43 was revised to address staff s
recommendations to:
Revise the Concept Plan in Area E, at the Northwest Corner of Pine Avenue and
Webb Avenue to show commercial development in lieu of a High Density Multi -
Family Residential Use; and to relocate the High Density Multi -Family
Residential from Area E to become an extension of Area B, which was designated
as High Density Multi -Family Residential on the original plan.
Revise the Concept Plan to eliminate attached townhouse units at the Northwest
corner of Area C and again at the Northern limits of Area C adjacent to Wilson
Lane and replace them with detached single family residential lots.
These changes were made to provide continuity of commercial uses along the
Pine Avenue Corridor; and to eliminate townhouses with front load garages.
The consolidation of the High Density Multi -Family Residential Design is
intended to become an important component of our PINE43 Mixed -Use Plan and
may contain a wide variety of housing options within the Area B, such as
traditional apartments, senior housing apartments; high density attached units
and/or assisted living units. The final plan for Area B will be required to obtain a
conditional use permit and will get additional review by the city prior to receiving
final approval.
We look forward to presenting the revised PINE43 project to the Planning and
Zoning Commission on September 7'J1. Please forward this narrative onto the
commission at your earliest convenience.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
