Body

Description/Background:

Mr. Joe Salisbury, representing DAI, is requesting Conditional Use Approval for a PUD, and multi-family dwellings, on the property located at 11237 S. 700 E. The development is called The Orchard at Farnsworth Farms. A Conditional Use Permit is required for a ‘Planned Unit Development’ and for ‘Dwelling, Multi-family’ in a PUD zoning district. This property (approximately 9.99 acres) is proposed to be subdivided into 96 units (9.6 units/acre) and establish common, limited common, and private areas of the development. Those common areas will be maintained by a Home Owners Association (HOA). Please see application# SPR06282021-006089 for the site plan review.

 

The proposed project is located along 700 East and and approximately 11200 South. It was conditionally zoned by the City Council as PUD(10). It is bordered by The Crescent Heights PUD  condominium project to the north. To the west are single family homes in the R-1-10 zone. To the south,  and to the east across 700 East, the property is bordered by single family homes in the R-1-8 zone.

 

Recommended Action and/or Suggested Motion:

Recommendation

Staff recommends that the Planning Commission grant the Conditional Use request to allow a PUD and multi-family dwelling uses to be located at 11237 S. 700 E. for The Orchard at Farnsworth Farms, based on the staff report, the staff findings 1 to 15 in the above analysis of the Conditional Use Standard and the two additional findings listed below and subject to the following four conditions:

 

FINDINGS:

 

A.                     That the proposed site planning and infrastructure improvements, building design and location, will not generate un-mitigatable impacts to the community. 

 

B.                     That the proposed land use request has been reviewed by staff considering the 15 standards contained in the Sandy City Development Code, 21-33-04, Conditional Use Process, and appropriate and adequate mitigation measures will be implemented or will be imposed as deemed necessary to minimize impacts to the surrounding business community, subject to the following conditions:

 

CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL:

 

1.                      That the applicant proceeds through final site plan approval with staff as required by the Sandy City Development Code.

 

2.                     That the Conditional Use Permit for a PUD and multi-family dwellings be reviewed upon future legitimate citizen complaint or staff observation of non-compliance with conditions.

 

3.                     That the applicant be responsible to meet all provisions of the Sandy City Development Code and all conditions of approval that are included in this report and as may be imposed by the Planning Commission to mitigate the reasonably anticipated detrimental effects of the proposed uses.

 

        4.    This approval is conditioned upon the City Council publishing Ordinance 20-04.
