Background/Discussion Paxmar is proposing to continue development of the plat previously named River Park, which was first approved in 2004 with a mix of single-family lots and townhome lots for 4 and 8 units. The 2004 plat included 317 single-family homes, 173 townhomes, Twin Lakes Elementary School, and a city -owned lot identified for use as a fire station. To date, 37 single-family and 32 townhome units (five buildings) have been constructed. Site Plan The road network and general configuration of the development is largely unchanged from the previous plat. However, the largest changes are seen in changes to lot/building types and sizes. The developer owns approximately 96 acres of the remaining undeveloped plat of River Park. This area previously included 10 4 -unit townhome buildings (40 units) and 185 single-family lots (225 total). The current proposal includes 74 detached townhome units on lots ranging in size from 44 to 55 feet wide and 168 single-family lots between 65 feet and 75+ feet wide (242 total). Access across the center portion not included in the current application package is not proposed to change as utility connections were previously stubbed in at the proposed road crossing locations. The connection (shown as 190th Ave) to County Road 40 is proposed to move from a point in line with 189th Ave to the current location.
