Summary Explanation and Background:
The applicant is requesting a change to their PDP (Preliminary Development Plan) to allow for a third access point located at the southern end of Monroe Avenue (NW portion of the PUD). The applicant is also requesting two waivers: (1) to reduce the active open space requirement from 5.5 acres to 2.6 acres, and (2) a partial waiver of the subdivision code's 15-foot perimeter buffer tract requirement. The Board's original approval granted waivers for minimum lot width and minimum lot area, which will not be affected by this application. Section 62-1442 states, "The applicant shall specifically include the alternative development standard(s) in the preliminary development plan and shall present its justification to the planning and zoning board and the board of county commissioners in public hearing."
Changes to the PDP depicts a reduction in the number of single-family residential lots from 417 lots to 363 lots (overall reduction of 54 lots); the plan also proposes an increase in the amount of proposed total open space from 39.5 acres to 45.9 acres under a 4-phase development plan. However, the active open space component is reduced from the 5.5 acres to 2.6 acres. Pursuant to Section 62-1448, this change is considered to be a substantial change that warrants Board approval.
Pursuant to 62-2957, developments with 350+ dwelling units are required to have three access points. The amendment to the PDP proposes access to Monroe Ave. in addition to the previously approved access points to U.S. 1 and Camp Rd.
