Title
Site Development Plan for Lot 1B, Block 3, The Meadows Filing No. 20 Phase 1, Amendment No. 2 and Lot 1A-1, Block 3, The Meadows Filing No. 20 Phase 1, Amendment No. 10. [Multi-Use Building; North of Meadows Boulevard, between Ambrosia Street and Future Street] (Town of Castle Rock Project #SDP18-0005)
Body
________________________________________________________________________________
Executive Summary
The Site Development Plan (SDP) proposal is for two lots within Block 3 of the Meadows Town Center. A new 17,191 square foot mixed use building, to include retail, office and apartment uses, is planned for Lot 1B. The associated parking for the mixed use building is proposed for Lot 1A-1 (Attachment B).
The Meadows is a master planned subdivision located in the northwest portion of the Town of Castle Rock. The original Meadows Planned Development (PD) was approved in 1984 and allowed a maximum of 14,000 dwelling units. The Meadows PD has gone through several rezonings over the years. The current PD zoning, approved in 2003, allows a maximum of 10,644 dwelling units; to date approximately 6,129 units have been approved or constructed in The Meadows. This site plan is proposed on property within the Meadows Town Center use area, where a mix of uses, such as single-family, multi-family, retail and office, are permitted.
The purpose of this report is to seek Planning Commission recommendation on the proposed Site Development Plan. This proposal is in conformance with the approved zoning and Town criteria. An administrative technical criteria variance has been approved for a reduction in landscaped area and street trees, which is discussed below. Staff comments have been addressed through the review process. Staff recommends that Planning Commission recommend approval.
Budget Impact
Development of the property will generate review and impact fees, along with revenue from use taxes. Other ongoing cost of serving the commercial, office and residential uses, in terms of public infrastructure and services, will be comparable to other similar developments in Castle Rock.
Staff Recommendation
Based on the analysis and findings summarized in this report, staff recommends that Planning Commission recommend to Town Council approval of the proposed SDP.
Proposed Motion
I move to recommend to Town Council approval of the Site Development Plan for Lot 1B, Block 3, The Meadows Filing No. 20, Phase 1, Amendment No. 2 and Lot 1A-1, Block 3, The Meadows No. 20, Phase 1, Amendment No. 10.
