Executive Summary
ACM Dawson Trails VIII JV LLC is seeking approval of the first residential Site Development Plan (SDP) within the Dawson Trails Planned Development (PD) (Attachments B and C). The development site is approximately 56 acres within the eastern portion Planning Area B1 (PA-B1). It is located south of Territorial Road and west of the future Dawson Trails Boulevard (Figure 1 and Attachment A).
The Site Development Plan proposal is for 229 single-family detached dwelling units and approximately 15 acres of private open space, to include a 1-acre neighborhood park. The neighborhood has two median separated points of access from Gambel Ridge Boulevard. An internal road will connect to the future neighborhood to the west. A minimum 250-foot open space buffer will separate the development from the existing Twin Oaks subdivision to the north. A transition zone applies to the northern tier of lots with prescriptive lot sizes, colors and lighting standards per the Dawson Trails PD Plan and Zoning Regulations (PD Plan).
The proposed SDP meets the applicable development standards of the Dawson Trails PD Plan and the Municipal Code. No outstanding staff or external comments remain.
The Planning Commission considered this proposal at a public hearing held on Thursday, December 12, 2024. No members of the public testified on this proposal. The Commission voted 5 - 0 to recommend to Town Council approval of the Site Development Plan, as proposed
