There are 15 single family lots and <br />122 townhouse lots proposed. The property is bounded by Pinewood Golf Course on the <br />south, Big Lake Township to the west, undeveloped property to the north and Waco Street <br />on the east. The site is a mix of open fields adjacent to the golf course on the south 1/5 of <br />the site. The remaining area is a mix of wetlands and woodlands. Approximately 5 acres is <br />wetland, about 3 acres is open area and the remaining 30 acres is woodlands. There are no <br />existing structures on the property. <br /> <br />The properties to the west in Big Lake Township are rural single family lots with wells and <br />septic systems. The 10 acres to the north is currently vacant; however; the owner of the <br />property has presented concept plans to staff for a townhouse development. There are 2 <br />single family lots and a fairway for Pinewood Golf Course to the south. There are also a 2 <br />single family lots abutting the project on the east. One is a ~ acre lot, the other is a 4.5 acre <br />lot. <br /> <br />The site is within the Urban Service District and will be connected to municipal water and <br />sewer. <br /> <br />Analysis <br /> <br />Rezoning Request <br /> <br />The applicant is requesting a rezoning from Rlc (Single Family Residential) to R3 <br />(Townhome District). The underlying land use designation of this property is Medium <br />Density Residential, which allows for up to 7.92 units per acre. The net density (the total area <br />less public street fight-of-ways, wetlands, water bodies and slopes steeper than 3:1) is 6 units <br />per acre, which would be consistent with the underlying land use designation of Medium <br />Density Residential. <br /> <br />S:XPLANNING\Case Files\2003\P 03-04 West Oaks\CCmemo7-21.doc <br /> <br /> <br />
