The proposed development is a PUD master planned residential community located south of County Road J/Ash Street, west of CSAH 21/Centerville Road and north of Wilkinson Lake Boulevard. It contains 2 parcels totaling approximately 46 gross acres and consists of a residential density mix of single family homes, twin homes and senior housing rentals totaling 136-161 housing units. The development proposes 27 single family homes, 17 twin homes (34 units total) and 75-100 senior housing rentals. These senior rentals would be similar to the existing brownstones located at Waverly Gardens to the south. ANALYSIS Comprehensive Plan Land Use Plan Per the City's Comprehensive Plan, the project site is guided for both High Density Residential (6.0-10.0 DU per acre) and Mixed Use (8.0 to 15.0 DU per acre). Approximately 60 percent of the Mixed Use area is expected to accommodate residential development at approximately 8 to 15 units per acre. The remaining 40 percent is to accommodate commercial development. North Oaks is proposing all residential development and no commercial. Per page 3-17 of the Comprehensive Plan, the mix of commercial and residential uses will vary for each site. It is important to note that the mixed -use percentages are preliminary and are intended to serve as a guide for future decision -making. As plans for specific mixed use areas are refined, suggested density, total units, and the residential/commercial split may be revised. To
