<br />WS – Item 4 <br />WORK SESSION STAFF REPORT <br />Work Session Item No. 4 <br /> <br /> <br />Date: October 3, 2022 <br /> <br />To: City Council <br /> <br />From: Katie Larsen, City Planner <br /> <br />Re: M/I Homes PUD Discussion-Leibel Property <br /> <br /> <br />Background <br /> <br />John Rask, Vice President of Land for M/I Homes, will be presenting information <br />regarding a proposed PUD residential development of the Leibel property. The 125 acre <br />site is located west of Watermark and east of Peltier Lake and consists of three (3) <br />different land use categories (low density, medium density, and high density). <br /> <br />The medium density (4-6 units/acre) and high density (6-8 units per acre) land use <br />guidance typically provides for an attached townhomes product. Prior to formalizing <br />their concept plan M/I Homes is seeking guidance from the City Council on it’s <br />receptiveness to incorporating a smaller single family lot into the product mix in these <br />areas. This would allow for a greater variety of product types within the area while still <br />meeting density requirements. <br /> <br />Staff is supportive of the request provided the following are taken into consideration: <br /> <br />1. Lot depths are a minimum 125’. <br />2. Lots front on a publically dedicated road. <br />3. Maintenance provisions are provided for drainage/landscaping between lots. <br />4. Building architecture provides for a variety of facades and minimizes garage <br />projection in front of house e.g. 2nd floor or front porch extended with garage. <br /> <br />Requested Council Direction <br /> <br />Staff is requesting Council direction to consider 40 ft. wide single family lots as an <br />alternative to attached townhome product types in medium and high density areas. <br /> <br />Attachments <br /> <br />1.
