On February 8, 2016 the Inter-Division Staff approved a site plan for four (4) new 2,808 square-foot detached residential units on 10.88 acres in the R1 (Single-Family Residential) Zone. In June 2016 and February 2017, the applicant received building permits to construct the first two (2) Club Cabins, which are now complete. A parking lot to the north of the cabins provides parking access. The cabins are on an already disturbed site (the former practice putting green), for which Civil Plans were approved as part of the original Estates at Pine Canyon Unit 1 subdivision in 2004. The Inter-Division Staff approved the Preliminary Plat on June 7, 2019, and on June 26, 2019 the Planning and Zoning Commission forwarded the Preliminary Plat to City Council with a recommendation of approval.

The 2016 site plan approval of the project signifies it complies with the standards in Title 10: Zoning Code and Title 13: Engineering Design Standards and Specifications for New Infrastructure. Thus, the developer was permitted to commence construction. However, the developer has opted to create a Condominium Plat to separate ownership of each unit from ownership of the land beneath. In this case, the units are defined as the airspace extending 40’ above the building footprint. The airspace includes all components of each structure, including porches and balconies. Shared areas such as the sidewalks and the parking area are considered “common elements.”
 
The four proposed units also comply with the regulations in Title 11: General Plans and Subdivisions, as evidenced by Inter-Division Staff and Planning and Zoning Commission approval of the Preliminary Plat earlier this year.

The findings for this development request relate to subdivision plats; additional information about zoning is for reference only. Please see attachments for more information.

The Club Cabin Condominiums at the Estates at Pine Canyon Unit 1 will provide a place to stay for Pine Canyon members and their families, and prospective Pine Canyon residents.

Inform. No public hearings or public outreach are required by either the Zoning Code or the Subdivision Code as part of the Preliminary Subdivision Plat review process.
