The current land use designation for the site is Existing Suburban which has a density range of 2 to 10 units per acre.  The proposed density for this site is 5.38 units per acre.
 

In June of 2000, the City Council approved a rezoning request and development agreement allowing the development of the 660 acres known as Pine Canyon, which includes a mixture of condominiums, estate twin houses (duplex units), estate homes, clubhouse and recreational facilities, maintenance and storage facilities, and an 18-hole private golf course with accessory facilities.

In 2006, the original Mountain Vista Condominium final plat for 60 residential condominium units was approved by City Council.

1. Approve the preliminary plat as recommended by the Planning & Zoning Commission.
2. Approve the preliminary plat subject to no conditions or modified conditions.
3. Deny the preliminary plat based on non-compliance with the Zoning Code, Subdivision Code, and/or Engineering Design Standards and Specifications for New Infrastructure.

The applicant, Mogollon Engineering representing TLC PC Developers LLC, is seeking preliminary plat approval for a replat of 48 residential condominium units within the larger Pine Canyon Development.  In 2006, the original final plat for 60 residential condominium units was recorded. All of the infrastructure for the project has been installed as part of the condominium project.  Three buildings containing a total of 12 dwelling units have been constructed and will remain as part of the original Mountain Vista Condominium at Pine Canyon subdivision.   The property owner has updated the design of the remaining condominium units and therefore must replat the remaining units to provide accurate legal descriptions for each unit. 
 
Several development standards have changed since 2006, including a new Zoning Code, new driveway ordinance, new storm water standards, new engineering standards, new landscaping standards, and new building placement standards.  The applicant does not intend to change the design of the approved subdivision but simply intends to alter the footprints of the building in order to update the design of the units.  The proposed changes are minor in nature and do not change the overall character of the existing subdivision. 
 

This application is a condominium plat, which takes a multi-unit complex, such as the subject property, and creates the ability for individually owned units.  In this case the units are defined as the air space within the walls of each structure.  Once the plat is complete, the buyer of a unit will receive a recordable deed to the individual unit purchased, including the right to sell, mortgage, etc., that unit and sharing in join ownership of any common grounds, parking areas and access.  Areas outside of the unit can be set aside for the individual owners as "limited common elements".  The preliminary plat delineates all of the elements affiliated with the individual units.

Community benefits and considerations are explained in detail in the attached Planning & Zoning Commission staff report dated October 11, 2017.

Inform.  No public hearings or public outreach are required by either the Zoning Code or the Subdivision regulations as part of the preliminary plat subdivision review process.
