Excer ts from Plan Commission Minutes of Jul 3 2008 II P Y ' � CaL No. 08-24 Petition of THE WOODS, LLC for an amendment to the R-6 PUD Multiple Dwelling District Planned Unit Development and B-2 PUD Commercial District Planned Unit Development at 1135 WEST WOOD STREET. Ms. Stickle presented the recommendation of staff: The subject site is currently developed with 13 multiple unit residential structures. The structures have a total of 156 dwelling units consisting of 136 four (4) bedroom units and 20 three (3) bedroom units. Also on the site is an office structure and a commercial structure. The City Council approved the R-6 PUD Multiple Dwelling District Planned Unit Development and the B-2 PUD Commercial District Planned Unit Development in December 1995 which allowed for the construction of 14-12 unit buildings for a total of 168 units, an office building and a retail building. In August of 1997, Council approved amendments that included the reduction of approved units from 14 to 11 and plans showed the center as a landscaped area that in the future may have three (3) residential buildings constructed. The amendments also included the construction of a second floor to the commercial building to be used as office space for the Millikin Institute. Building permits were issued to build a three (3) story 12 unit residential structure in 2002 and again in 2003. The subject petition requests amendments to the R-6 Planned Unit Development and the B-2 Planned Unit Development to allow for the construction of a recreation building and an outdoor pool for the residents and their guests. The amendment will also include bringing the parking lot to the south into the PUD. Also, the amendment includes allowing the two (2) buildings in the center of the development that have already been constructed to replace the landscaped area as called out in the approved 1997 amendment that could have been u ed for the construction of three (3) additional buildings. These buildings were constructed anc�approved through the site plan process. The site plans will now show the as built locations o�the residential structures. This amendment will be included in these amendments to allow the site to be in compliance with City Zoning Ordinance and the approved PUD. The proposed amendments are consistent with the character of the previously approved development and general area. The landscaping and lighting will not change with the proposed amendments as noted on the attached plan. Parking spaces currently provided well exceed those approved by the original planned development as well as the requirements of the current Zoning Ordinance. Based on the above analysis, staff recommends approval of the amen�ments to the R-6 PUD and the B-2 PUD with the following condition: ' � a) The deleted fire hydrant should be relocated to the south sid of the proposed recreation center and accessible to fire apparatus in the parking lot. i b) Final site, landscaping and lighting plans shall be reviewed b�y the Economic and Urban Development Department, the Department of Engineering and Infrastructure and the Fire Department prior to construction.
