| | | | | | | | BACKGROUND
The property is generally located west of Chelsea Boulevard and south of the Ridgeview Drive right-of-way. The properties to the north (across the Ridgeview Drive right-of-way) are zoned Planned Development PD No. 92, Corridor Commercial CC and Community Facilities CF. The properties to the west are zoned Community Facilities CF and Planned Development PD No. 92 Single-Family Residential R-3. To the south, the properties are zoned Planned Development PD No. 92 Single-Family Residential R-3, Planned Development PD No. 92 Single-Family Residential R-5, and Planned Development PD No. 92 Single-Family Residential R-7. To the east (across Chelsea Boulevard), the property is zoned Agriculture Open Space AO.
The property is currently zoned Agriculture Open Space AO. The applicant is requesting to establish a Planned Development with a base zoning of both Single-Family Residential "R-5" and "R-6," and adopt a Concept Plan, Building Elevations, Screening Plan, and Development Regulations to establish design standards for a new residential community.
The proposed residential development is approximately 79.095± acres. The Concept Plan shows a total of 262 front entry lots with two product types. Approximately 129 units (49% of the total lots) will be R-5 lots, which are 65'X120' with a minimum dwelling unit size of 2,400 square feet. These lots are primarily located west of Hilliard Drive and south of Baugh Drive. Approximately 133 units (51% of the total lots) will be R-6 lots, which are 55'X120' with a minimum dwelling unit size of 2,200 square feet. These lots are primarily located east of Hilliard drive and north of Baugh Drive. The maximum gross density of the development is 3.5 units/acre.
There are two (2) primary access points into the development; one on the future Ridgeview Drive right-of-way and one on Chelsea Boulevard.
The plan also shows approximately 5.5± acres of open space which is provided throughout the development; this exceeds ALDC requirements. The open space calculation includes an existing cemetery on the eastern side of the property (Lot 8, Block X). Approximately 0.7± acres of the property will include the amenity center. Additionally, approximately 2.3± acres of the property will be dedicated to a public park. A 10' Hike and Bike trail is proposed along the western side of the property. This trail connects to the existing trail to the south and continues to the north where it will be connected to future trails. Pedestrian seating/benches are proposed along the trail as well as a seating area with a shade structure (pavilion) proposed near the creek. Additionally, the trail continues east along Street K within this development and will connect to the Jenny Preston Elementary school. To ensure connectivity from the southern neighborhood to the school, a temporary sidewalk easement is shown along Lots 34-39, Block H.
Screening for the property will consist of eight foot (8') masonry screening wall on the northern property boundary along the Ridgeview Drive right-of-way and on the eastern property boundary along Chelsea Boulevard. An eight foot (8') masonry screening wall will also be constructed along the eastern side of Lots 39-46, Block H. An existing six foot (6') Wrought-Iron fence will remain along the southern property boundary. A six foot (6') Wrought-Iron fence or a six foot (6') builder fence will be constructed on the western side of the property along Lots 23-34, Block H. The portion of the cemetery will be enclosed with an eight foot (8') masonry screening wall, an eight foot (8') Wrought-Iron fence, and a four foot (4') Wrought-Iron fence.
The lot layout and development of Lots 23-33, Block H, is subject to approval of a flood study, which must prohibit any adverse impacts to the 100-year fully urbanized floodplain.
Several building elevations will be incorporated in the development. All sides of all elevations will be 100% masonry with primary building materials such as stone, brick, and stucco, with composition shingle roofing. The 100% masonry requirement exceeds the ALDC standards. Additionally, the elevations will be further enhanced through treated/textured driveways and enhanced garage doors.
The development regulations include building elevation standards, lot design criteria and setbacks, screening, and floodplain reclamation standards.
The request has been reviewed by the Technical Review Committee.
On June 6, 2017, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the request, with the following conditions: 1) The fencing facing the trail along Block H, Lots 23-33 shall be wrought iron, and 2) The lot depth shall be 110 feet. The applicant has made these revisions.
