Pine Oaks Concept Plan Submittal developed areas of the city currently served by on-site systems. The proposed development will provide sewer connectivity to the properties to the east located on Olive and Orange Streets and a portion of Pine and Maple Streets that are in the Stage 1B Planned Service Areas as outlined in the City’s Comprehensive Plan. These homes are situated on smaller lots and are currently served by both well and septic systems. A lift station that was provided by the development to the southwest, Natures Refuge North, allows these properties to be served by this connection. We believe the general requirements for a PUD are met in the following ways: Public or common open space to meet minimum requirements established in the ordinance. o The site provides approximately 55 acres of open space, which is just under 73 percent of the site. If PUD includes preservation of natural habitat, those habitats shall be permanently protected through a conservation easement or other legally binding agreement. o We recorded a conservation easement and WMC Buffer Declaration in Natures Refuge and Natures Refuge North and are willing to record similar documents against the open space. Homeowners Association Required. o The lots will be governed by a homeowner’s association (HOA) as further explained below. SITE PLAN/REZONING The site plan proposes three street connections: one connecting to the west from Natures Refuge North’s via Haywood Drive, one connecting to the north to Pine Street NE, and one connecting to the east to connect with Nordin Street. Given the tree and wetland impacts as well as existing encroachments into the right-of-way, we are not proposing to connect Nordin Street to Pine Street. With submittal of the preliminary plat and PUD applications, we will be requesting a rezoning from the R-1 zoning district to the R-2 zoning district with certain flexibilities outlined below. As previously mentioned, this zoning district and requested flexibilities are consistent with what was approved with Natures Refuge North.
