PUBTAC HEARINGS. 2 A_ Subdivision of Property and Replatting Request- Arnie Gregory, The Arbors, Old 3 Highway 8 (96-12). 4 Chair Bergstrom opened the public hearing at 7:05 p.m. 5 It was noted that Commissioner Makowske would not participate in discussion or voting on this 6 item due to a conflict of interest. 7 Ms. Kim Moore-Sykes, Management Assistant reported Arnie Gregory, developer for the Arbors 8 Townhomes, has requested that Block 2 and 4 of Auditor's Subdivision 377 be subdivided in 9 order to replat. The replatting would accommodate revised construction plans to build six 10 townhomes with master bedrooms on the main floor. In order to accomplish this,the revised 11 master bedroom plans require additional floor area on the lower level that by eliminating one unit 12 in each of the two buildings would provide. 13 if his request to replat the property is approved,it would lessen the density of the project which 14 would reduce traffic and noise in the development. Mr. Gregory felt this reduction in the density 15 would be a benefit to neighboring properties as well. 16 Staff is recommending that this request for subdivision of property be approved. The proposed • 17 subdivision and replatting will not affect any setback variances already approved nor will he need 18 to request additional variances to construct the larger townhomes_ Staff has not received any 19 responses from the neighbors to Ivir. Gregory's request to subdivide his property. 20 Chair Bergstrom requested clarification of the units on the two maps presented in the 21 Commissioner's packet. 22 Mr. Jack Bucksell,representing Arnie Gregory, explained the terms"Block" and"Building" are 23 used interchangeably. He then illustrated the layout of the buildings on the final plat and diagram. 24 He explained this request was to change Building 2 from four units to three units,Building 4 from 25 four units to three units and Building 3 to remain a three unit but to enlarge the footprint of the -26 building slightly. This will result in a reduced unit count from 18 to 16 but the footprint of the 27 subdivision will be slightly larger. 28 Mr.Bucksell explained the previous plat included 36 parking spaces in front of garages of IS 29 homes and 7 guest parking spaces_ The replatting will include 31 parking spaces in front of 16 30 homes and 9 guest parking spaces. One garage will have only one parking space. The 31 architecture of the buildings will remain the same. 32 Commissioner Franzese asked if this was the same plat which was approved last year and if the 33 zoning had changed. • 34 Ms.Manager Moore-Sykes explained the developer had originally applied for R-4 zoning but it 35 had been reduced to R-3.
