Staff Presentation Senior Planner, Molina addressed the Commissioners stating that the applicant is requesting to change the zoning from Agricultural/30 to Planned Development —Townhome District to allow for a development of 43 townhome units and two open space lots on 5.560 acres. The applicant is proposing a mews area being a shared common area front yard for each row of townhomes. The Zoning Ordinance normally requires for each home, attached or detached, to have its own front yard. The Planned Development Conditions propose the construction of 43 townhome units with a minimum lot size of 1,848 square feet or 22 feet by 84 feet. The minimum allowed unit size is 1,500 square feet with a maximum height of 35 feet which is larger than the 1,200 square foot minimum requirement in the Zoning Ordinance. The garage space is proposed to be 400 square feet being a variation from the standard 500 square feet requirement of the Zoning Ordinance. Public Notifications were mailed to 39 property owners within 200 feet of the subject property. Two were received in favor and six were received in opposition, there were an additional five comments received in opposition from outside the 200 feet notification area. Commissioners Discussion Mr. Jerry Sylo, JBI Partners, representative for the applicant, addressed the Commissioners with a presentation, stating that the closest townhome within the development will be approximately 133 feet from the adjacent existing single-family residential homes. The proposed development will have access to Ballard and align with Harvest Bend Drive, therefore closing off the first 15 feet of the alley to the existing development. The developer will build a new access point to the alley from the proposed public street. The development will have a 50 feet right-of-way main access with a 24 feet fire lane circling around the development. Although the garages will allow two vehicles, additional parking will be permitted on the street. The entries are all rear-entry with a mixture of two-and three-bedroom units. Planning Manager Haskins clarified that the applicant will submit an Alley Abandonment Foi in with the developer agreeing to purchase the property should the owner of 100 Windsor Drive not be interesting in purchasing it.

City Engineer Porter addressed the Commissioners stating that at this time there is no plan to install a stop sign or traffic signal at the proposed intersection of Harvest Bend and proposed development.
