Information
Title:
Consider Sketh Plan for Centra Homes (Project #17-162); Case of Centra Homes
Purpose/Background:
The purpose of this case is to provide the Planning Commission an opportunity to review the official sketch plan submitted by Centra Homes. The proposed residential development consists of forty (40) detached town home units located within The COR. The property consists of approximately 4.3 acres and is located at the southwest corner of Bunker Lake Blvd NW and Ramsey Blvd NW.
Notification:
Staff held a public workshop on 02/01/2018 for adjacent property owners to have an opportunity to voice opinions on three variations of the proposed development. Staff attempted to notify all Property Owners within 700 feet of the proposed development via Standard US Mail of the public workshop.
Observations/Alternatives:
Observations
The Sketch Plan presented to the City generally appears to adhere to the COR Development Guidelines for the 4B subdistrict. The Applicant will need to refine the proposal as directed in the staff review letter. Of particular interest are the proposed internal private roadways. The Sketch Plan shows a connection to the west with Peridot Street NW but does not show a connection being completed to Olivine Street NW. If possible, public safety would like to see a connection to Olivine Street NW be completed to promote connectivity.
City Staff held a public workshop on the proposed development which at the time consisted of three different concepts. Feedback from the general public has been included as an attachment to this case.

Recommendation:
Staff is supportive of the proposed development contingent upon compliance with the staff review letter.
Action:
No formal action is required at this time. The Planning Commission should provide general feedback on the proposed sketch plan and if generally supportive should direct the Applicant to move forward onto Preliminary Plat.
