Background and History:
Timber Sky is a proposed 1,300 (maximum density) residential dwelling unit development. The development proposes a mixture of high density, medium density, and single-family residential units combined with commercial service and open space on 197.58 acres. The site is situated north and south between West Route 66 and Interstate 40 and east and west between Woody Mountain Road and Flagstaff Ranch Road.
The applicant, VP 66 & Woody Mountain LLC, is seeking Final Plat approval for Block 3A known as Adora at Timber Sky Phase 1 within the first phase of Timber Sky consisting of 35 single-family residential lots with the use of the Planned Residential Development option. The proposed lot sizes within the subdivision vary from 4,488 square feet (.10 acres) to 7,875 square feet (.18 acres). In order to approve lots less than 6,000 square feet in size, this subdivision is using the Planned Residential Development (PRD) option in the MR zone with a unique building type called "Garden Home" conforming to the T4 Neighborhood 2 (T4N.2) transect zone development standards.

Key Considerations:
Timber Sky will be developed in four phases with both the on-site and off-site infrastructure improvements. A Development Agreement was approved in conjunction with the Annexation, Concept Zoning Map Amendment, and Preliminary Block Plat that covers workforce housing, outdoor lighting, Homeowners Association requirements and infrastructure plans. The development of a housing affordability plan was required prior to the approval of the first final plat. This plan has been submitted to and approved by the Housing Division. A total of 27-units have been identified in phase one to be land trust units. Specific affordable housing units will be identified by the builders within each block. The majority of units are intended to be provided in the Medium Density Residential (MR) and High Density Residential (HR) zones.
