Resolution No. 11 -96, page 2 • • • AGENDA ITEM 1 F STAFF ORIGINATOR: Jeff Smyser C.C. MEETING DATE: September 26, 2011 TOPIC: Consideration of Resolution No. 11 -96 Extension of Time for Moon Marsh VOTE REQUIRED: Simple Majority BACKGROUND In 2007 the City Council approved the Moon Marsh project with Resolution No. 07 -142. This approved a Conditional Use Permit for a Planned Unit Development (PUD) and a PUD Development Stage Plan/Preliminary Plat. A PUD Development Stage Plan must be followed by the Final Plan application within twelve months under the zoning ordinance. Likewise, a final plat must be submitted within one year of the preliminary plat approval under the subdivision regulations. For a conditional use permit (CUP), construction must begin within one year of approval. The project did not meet these deadlines due to the widespread slowdown in development in the region, and the City has granted several extensions. The current submittal deadline for the PUD Final Plan/Final Plat is October 1, 2011, and the recommendation is to extend it to April 1, 2012. The Moon Marsh site includes a high value natural resource area. Permanent open space is to be created within the site that will be placed in a permanent conservation easement. The preservation of open space on this site will be a step in the implementation of the City's larger greenway vision, a foundation of the Comprehensive Plan. OPTIONS 1. Approve Resolution No. 11 -96 granting an extension for submitting the PUD Final Plan/Final Plat and for construction to begin under the Conditional Use Permit. 2. Deny Resolution No. 11 -96. 3. Return to staff with direction. RECOMMENDATION Option 1
