Executive Summary
On April 21, 2020, Town Council voted 7-0 on first reading of the Alexander Place Annexation as presented.
Martinez Real Estate Company, LLC, property owner and applicant, has submitted an application for annexation and initial zoning of an 8.37-acre property known as Alexander Place. The property is addressed currently as 382 Alexander Place and is located east of the Shoppes at Castle Rock and the Montana Vista Office Building. Alexander Place currently ends at the western property line of the property.
The proposal consists of two separate applications, annexation and zoning. If the property is approved for annexation, it must subsequently be zoned. The applicant proposes to establish the zoning of the property as the Alexander Place Planned Development Plan and Zoning Regulations which would allow a senior continuum of care development.
Applications for annexation and zoning require public hearings before Town Council, after review and recommendation by Planning Commission, who shall review and make a decision upon the proposed annexation and zoning.
Budget Impact
The proposed annexation will generate review fees. In addition, impact fees will be collected at time of zoning and site development.
Findings
Town staff finds that the proposed annexation was reviewed and processed as prescribed in Title 20 of the Municipal Code, meets the objectives of the Town’s Vision 2030, and meets the review and approval criteria as outlined in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan.
Town staff finds that the application and attachments were processed as prescribed in the Zoning process of Section 17.02.060 and the PD review process of Section 17.02.060. In addition, the proposed PD plan was reviewed and evaluated under the PD plan criteria of Section 17.34.030 and the PD zoning regulations were formatted as prescribed in PD zoning regulations criteria of 17.34.040 of the Town’s Municipal Code.
Recommendation
Planning Commission recommends approval of the proposed Alexander Place annexation as outlined in this report.
Planning Commission recommends approval of the proposed Alexander Place Planned Development Plan and Zoning regulations as outlined in this report.
