HomeMy WebLinkAboutMemo from PlanningItem 9 -Modification to Development Agreement: Southridge Subdivision
Location: South side of Overland Road, between Linder and Ten Mile
Applications: Modification to the approved development agreement fora 290 acre site with
multiple zoning districts.
History of Previous Actions:
- In 2007, the subject property was granted Annexation and Zoning (AZ-06-031)
approval with R-2, R-4, R-8, TN-C, L-O, and TN-R zoning districts (Ordinance #07-
1319). A Development Agreement was also approved with the annexation
(Instrument No. 107074205). A Preliminary Plat (PP-06-031) was approved
concurrent with the annexation for 239 lots consisting of 189 residential lots, 11
commerciaUother lots, 8 mega lots (to be developed in the future), and 31
common/open space lots.
- A Property Boundary Adjustment was approved by the Planning Department on
October 13, 2008 that adjusts property lines for 10 existing pazcels which will
develop and/or be further subdivided in the future.
- A Conditional Use Permit-(CUP-08-027) application is currently in process for the
Beacon at Southridge a 187-unit assisted living facility and church on the northeast
portion of the site.
- A Final Plat (FP-08-017) application is currently in process for 60 building lots (53
residential units) and 11 common/other lots on 33.6 acres of land in TN-C and TN-R
zoning districts.
Highlights of Proposed Request: The major changes propose elimination of the mega lot concept,
and associated concept plan, to replace them with a new master concept plan and Property
Boundary Adjustment (PBA) plan. Rather than platting all parcels, the applicant is proposing
that some of the parcels should be able to move forwazd in the building process through the
property boundary adjustment process. The first parcel to move forward in the development
process is an assisted living community that is going through the CUP process currently. This
CUP as well as the Final Plat at the end of tonight's agenda hinge on approval of the subject DA
modification.
Significant Changes to Plan: The new proposed concept plan includes: 1) an assisted living
facility and church where multi-family and commercial uses were previously shown (adjacent to
Overland, at Southridge Drive); this area was originally planned for multi-family and single-
family residential and commercial uses; 2) A 4-way street connection to Overland Road was
originally shown on the plan at the southern tip of the L-O zoned property and the TN-R zoned
property; now the street dead-ends in a hammerhead design and does not connect to Overland,
there is an access on the outside of the radius for Overland Road; 3) The street system on the
southwest portion of the site now run more pazallel (north/south) with Overland Road instead of
perpendiculaz (eastlwest) as previously planned. The lazge area on the north side of Overland
Road on the west side of the site shows single-family lots consistent with the previously
proposed concept plan; and, 4) Previously there were 2 street connections to Overland Road west
of the Amend out-pazcel in the multi-family azea; now, there is only one. NOTE: The alignment

of Overland Road has changed slightly due to the topography of the site and ACHD
requirements.
Significant Changes to DA: In the staff report the Applicant's requested changes are noted in
bold/underline and strikeout format. Staffl s recommended changes noted in red bold/underline
and strikeout format. Here is a sample of some of the most significant changes:
+ The applicant is proposing to include approval of an access to Ten Mile Road; no access was
allowed originally. Staff is not supportive of this driveway as the property is currently zoned
residential. Once the applicant submits development applications for this area, staff will re-
evaluate the need for an access to Ten Mile Road. But right now, the land use and zoning has not
been approved that would warrant an access.
+ Staff is still requiring that the park, clubhouse and pool be with the platting of Phase 1 (also
identified as Parcel 1 in the recently submitted PBA) but are not required to be constructed or
platted with the first final plat (see also the attached/revised master site plan;. However, the park
& private clubhouse & pool do need to be platted and constructed prior to platting or
development on Parcels 3, 7, and 10 (as shown on the PBA).
+ parcels 2, 5, 8 and 9 do not require platting but will require development application approval
(i.e. - CZC, DES and possibly CUP); Parcels 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, and 10 will require appropriate
detailed preliminary platting/platting phases and fmal plats; and Development of all parcels must
remain consistent with the adopted Ten Mile Area Specific Plan, as submitted and approved by
the City. No variances to lot dimensions, setbacks or block lengths shall be requested by the
applicant "as part of the re-development or platting of the parcels.
+ Staff is recommending a change to the timing of the perimeter landscaping requirements.
+ Staff is recommending that the overall density of the project include a minimum of 1,000
residential units on the property and a maximum of 1,277 , up from 1,252.
Elevations: No -According to revised DA provision # 26, the applicant is proposing language
that states: prior to the signature of the first final plat, the applicant shall submit and obtain
Design Review approval; or submit and obtain City Council approval (or a development
agreement modification) of plans that proposes specific and detailed architectural guidelines for
this development and that address (at a minimum) variety in structures within a block, building
mass, building materials, rooflines, colors, and architectural styles.
Written Testimony since Staff Report: None.
Outstanding Issue(s) for City Council: Staff is recommending two additional changes to the
DA 1) That DA provision # 30 be modified to read: For access purposes to Parcel 9, a city-
approved access shall be provided to Parcel 9 from/across Parcel 10 prior to building
construction; and 2) That DA provision # 31 be modified to read: For access purposes to
Parcel 5, acity-approved access shall be provided to Parcel 5 across Parcel 4 prior to
development. The applicant may have other changes; staff does not have written comments from
the applicant but we did discuss the revisions last Friday.
