Title
Update: Quasi-Judicial Projects
Body
________________________________________________________________________________
Executive Summary
The purpose and intent of this report is to provide Town Council with a summary of quasi-judicial projects. In order to provide all parties with due process under law, decision makers must be fair and impartial when considering quasi-judicial applications such as those included in this memorandum. Many of these projects do not have public hearing dates yet, but Town Council could be asked to consider them in the future.
New Applications
The Brickyard Mixed Use Development Site Development Plan:
Staff has received a new Quasi-Judicial Site Development Plan (SDP) application for the 18.8 Brickyard mixed-use development located at 401 Prairie Hawk Drive. The site plan proposed both vertical and horizontal mix of uses, to include 506 multifamily residential units. The units will be a for-lease product, primarily apartments/condo style, with 24 townhomes. Approximately 178,000 square feet of non-residential uses will include a destination hotel with pool, shoppes and bar, as well as, restaurants, retail, office, and conference venue space throughout the development. Parking will be provided through a combination of on-street and structured garages, and will comply with the Municipal Code requirements for joint use of parking spaces. Two points of access to the development will be provided from the east, via existing Prairie Hawk Drive, and one connection will be made on the west through Miller's Landing to Plum Creek Parkway. Improvements to the existing Prairie Hawk Drive to Wolfensberger Road, and west to Plum Creek Parkway are required, and will be detailed in the Brickyard Development Agreement.
The Brickyard Planned Development Plan dedicates 10.36 acres of public land to the Town, which is planned to be the Town’s new Sports Development Center. The Sports Development Center will provide a strong southern anchor to the Brickyard mixed-use development. The Sports Development Center is being designed by the Town, subject to Town Council approval, and is not a part of this Site Development Plan.
The Brickyard Site Development Plan will require public hearings before the Planning Commission and Town Council. The Brickyard mixed-use development is in Council Member Bracken’s district.
