The applicant, The Thackeray Company, is requesting preliminary site plan review for a proposed 40-unit development consisting of 12 single-family homes and 28 townhomes. The subject property is zoned PUD (10).
The subject property is 4.0 acres in size and currently consists of one (1) parcel. The property is currently vacant, and is south of the former Reams grocery store.
The subject property is zoned PUD (10). To the north is the site of the future Challenger School in the CN zone (Planned Center - Neighborhood District). 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.
Recommended Action and/or Suggested Motion:
Recommendation
Staff Recommends that the Planning Commission determine that preliminary site plan review is complete for the Thackeray Towns Site Plan, located at 10760 S. 700 E., based on the following findings and subject to the following conditions:
Findings:
1. The subdivision configuration, as proposed, meets the standards required by the PUD (10) zone, save for the three special exceptions being requested.
2. The density being proposed meets the maximum allowable density of 10 units per acre.
Conditions:
1. That the applicant complies with each department’s comments and redlines throughout the final review process and that all issues be resolved before the subdivision can be recorded.
2. That all City provisions, codes and ordinances are adhered to during the review, construction, and operations process of this project.
3. That all lots comply with all requirements of the PUD (10) zone or as modified or approved by the Planning Commission.
4. That the maximum density of the development be limited to 40 (10 units per acre) units on this site.
5. That the applicant work with staff regarding the building materials in order to provide more high quality building materials. If a consensus cannot be reached, the elevations and materials will need to come back before the Planning Commission for final approval.
6. That a private homeowners association be established to ensure common area maintenance for the development. That a note be included on the plat to provide public notice of said HOA and maintenance requirements. The developer shall provide a capital reserve study and establish a reserve fund for the HOA.
7. That the driveway on the southeast portion of the development be modified from 22 feet wide to 24 feet wide. This alley shall terminate in line with the southern end of the townhome units fronting 700 E.
8. A revised grading and drainage plan be submitted to ensure that water is maintained on each individual single-family lot meeting all City standards.
9. No building shall exceed 35 feet measured to the peak of the roof according to Sandy City Code.
10. Approved road names (by Salt Lake County) to be provided by the applicant and labeled on the plat and site plan as part of final review.
11. The approved setbacks shall be: front: 20-feet, side: 10-feet between single-family dwellings and rear setbacks of 20-feet on the west (with an option of a covered patio to come as close as 13.5’) and south boundaries with no structures (temporary or permanent) over the 20-foot irrigation easement on the south property line. Townhome setbacks shall be a minimum of 20-feet from 700 E. and 20-feet from other front property lines.
12. That the applicant work with Water Pro relative to possible relocation of their pressurized irrigation line. Water Pro shall be a required signature block on the final subdivision plat.
13. The Planning Commission consider extending the masonry wall along the west property line of this project to maintain aesthetic continuity, or alternatively at least across the northwest neighbor’s rear yard to avoid having two fence/wall types converge in the middle of their rear yard.
14. That the applicant work with the adjacent property owners to the south regarding the installation of a new solid vinyl fence to replace the wooden fences along the south property line. If this is not an option, the applicant will need to provide fencing details for final review with the Planning Commission.
15. That this project come back for final review, unless otherwise determined by the Planning Commission.
