Body
Description/Background:
The applicant, The Thackeray Company, is requesting preliminary subdivision review for a proposed preliminary plat that creates one large lot for the future Challenger School to the north, and then plats all the individual units of the proposed Thackeray Towns project to the south of that. The applicant is not requesting any overlays in association with this application, but is requesting the following three special exceptions:
1. Exception for a subdivision without two points of ingress/egress
2. Exception for a right-of-way width less than 52 feet
3. Exception for a waiver to the requirement for park strip and sidewalk on both sides of the right-of-way
The subject property is zoned CN zone (Planned Center - Neighborhood District) on the north side and PUD(10) on the south side. To the west are single-family homes in the R-1-10 zone. To the south are single-family homes in the SD(R-1-8) PUD zone. To the east is 700 E. Across the street are multi-family units located in the RM (12) zone, and also homes in a PUD (8) zone.
The subject property is 11.89 acres in size, is vacant, and is comprised of 3 parcels. The north two parcels previously had a Ream’s Grocery Store on them until August, 2020, when it was demolished for the future Challenger School. The Challenger School obtained a preliminary site plan approval from the Planning Commission on August 20, 2020. At the time it was anticipated that the subdivision plat would be done together with the subdivision for Thackeray Towns. This application is the finalization of that intent.
Recommended Action and/or Suggested Motion:
