Thus, <br />Staff is not able to provide a detailed analysis. This will be done at the Preliminary Plat stage, <br />including addressing public comments from the April 20t" Neighborhood meeting. <br />This project will be a Planned Unit Development (PUD). With PUD's, the intent is to allow <br />variations from the City Code in some areas, and excessive standards in other areas (give & <br />take). The overall intent of PUD's is to obtain a better development than what would have <br />occurred if following the strict regulations of the City Code. <br />Topic <br />Possible Variations <br />Possible Variations <br />from City Code <br />exceeding City Code <br />Density' <br />Pulte (R-3 zoning): <br />Min 6,500sf p/unit (52 units) <br />required, whereas 4,536sf p/lot <br />proposed (75 units). <br />YardHomes (R-1 zoning): <br />Min 11,000sf p/unit (6 units) <br />required, whereas 5,445sf p/lot <br />proposed 12 units). <br />Building Setbacks2 <br />Front: 30' required. <br />Setbacks from wetlands. <br />Pulte proposed 22'. <br />YardHomes unknown. <br />Home Size3 <br />Minimum 960 sf required for one- <br />story dwellings, whereas <br />YardHomes will be 640 - 825 sf <br />Parking4 <br />Minimum two spaces p/unit. <br />Putle exceeds parking <br />YardHomes shows 1 stall p/unit. <br />requirement.
