Body

Description/Background:

Mr. Joe Salisbury, of DAI, has submitted an application for a preliminary site plan review of a proposed PUD development called The Orchard at Farnsworth Farms. The proposal is to be built on approximately 9.99 acres. These residences are proposed to be built using three different styles of 4-plexes, one style of 5-plex, one style of 6-plex, one style of twin home, and then a red barn architecture for the clubhouse.

 

The proposed project is located along 700 East and and approximately 11200 South. It was conditionally zoned by the City Council as PUD(10) (see Ordinance 20-04). 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. Because the zone is conditional, your review will be based on the conditional zone, PUD(10), and your action will be conditional upon publication of Ordinance 20-04.

 

Recommended Action and/or Suggested Motion:

Staff recommends that the Planning Commission find that the preliminary site plan review is complete for the proposed Orchard at Farnsworth Farms Site Plan, located at approximately 11237 S. 700 East, based upon the following conditions:

Building utility meters shall be mounted to the side or rear elevation or screened with a wing wall if fronting a public street.

 

4.                     That gates be located such that they adhere to Sandy City ordinance [21-21-10(o)] and also comply with UDOT’s queueing requirements.

 

5.                     That an eight-foot parkstrip and five-foot sidewalk be incorporated along 700 East to facilitate the planting of street trees.
