Body

Description/Background:

The applicant and property owner, Brandon Fry, is requesting preliminary Subdivision and Site Plan for the property located at approximately 7613 S. 300 E. The proposal consists of the creation of 24 units and the dedication of a public street through the property. Based upon the applicant’s submittal, three special exceptions will also be required for the current design which include the following: providing two points of ingress/egress, reductions to the minimum required road profile by eliminating parkstrips and sidewalks, and the creation of lots which do not front onto a public street. Please reference the applicant’s letter (Exhibit A) and application materials (Exhibit B).

 

The property is zoned Planned Unit Development (PUD) which requires that the Planning Commission review and approve the proposed building materials, building design, exterior fencing, landscape (open space), and amenities for the project.  The Planning Commission may also require specific setbacks, buffers, building heights, and site arrangements where it is determined to be appropriate. The Planning Commission reviews developments within the PUD (12) zone to ensure the site plan follows the purpose and design objectives outlined in the ordinance. Additionally, the proposed Subdivision and Special Exceptions require Planning Commission review.

 

A full staff report and exhibits are attached for full details of the request.
