AGENDA MEMORANDUM
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of Town Council

Title: Resolution Approving Meadows Filing No. 18, Tract GG Site Development Plan, Amendment No. 11
Executive Summary
On July 14, 2016, Planning Commission voted 6 to 1 to recommend to Town Council approval of the SDP for the Meadows, Filing No. 18, Tract GG, Amendment No. 11.
The Meadows Development Team continues working towards their goal of creating a close-knit community atmosphere while providing quality, value and attractiveness in a variety of housing and commercial products to residents of Castle Rock.
The proposed Site Development Plan (SDP) includes approximately 20 acres and is located within the Meadows community at the southeast corner of Prairie Hawk Drive and Low Meadows Boulevard, adjacent to the Bonaventure Senior Living Center. The application proposes 98 single family detached homes within approximately 11 acres, leaving 6 acres for open space dedication and 3 acres for right-of-ways and proposed local streets. A Preliminary Plat and Final Site Plan were recorded in 2008, approving 93 single family lots. The current proposal results in an increase of 5 residential lots with a new lot layout and road configuration (Exhibit 1).
Budget Impact
The proposed SDP Plan will generate review and impact fees, along with use taxes. Other ongoing costs to serve the neighborhood in terms of public infrastructure and amenities, as well as police and fire, will be comparable to other residential developments in Castle Rock.
Staff Recommendation
Based on the analysis and findings outlined in this report, Planning Commission and staff recommend approval of the proposed SDP, Amendment No. 11.
Proposed Motion
I move to approve this Resolution as introduced by title.
