The Preserve on Sunset Lake- Sketch Plan <br />Page 3 <br />5. ANALYSIS: Consistency with Ordinance Standards <br />Process <br />The applicant is requesting sketch plan comments prior to a formal submittal. <br />The next steps for the applicant would be to submit a request for approval of the following <br />applications: <br />a. Rezoning from RR to PUD, <br />b. PUD general plan and <br />c. Preliminary plat. <br />Following the preliminary approvals would be applications for final plat of the first phase. <br />Sketch Plan <br />The applicant is proposing to subdivide the existing 135-acre site to create 13 residential home <br />sites. The RR zoning district required a minimum lot size of 10 acres and a minimum lot width <br />of 300 feet. The maximum density on in the RR zoning district is 1 unit per 10 acres. In this <br />zoning district smaller lots are allowed with a Planned Unit Development (PUD) provided that <br />the maximum density stays at 1 unit per 10 acres. <br />The applicant is proposing a minimum lot size of 5 acres with a lot width of 300 feet, except the <br />lot width would be reduced in the cul-de-sac. As the project moves forward the applicant would <br />need to request PUD flexibility to allow the following: <br />• a minimum lot size of 5 acres, and <br />• a reduced lot width minimum for the lots off of the cul-de-sac <br />The maximum density shall remain 1 unit per 10 acres to meet the ordinance requirements. <br />The applicant is proposing three outlots: <br />• Outlot A — Homeowner's association (HOA) owned and maintained open space. <br />• Outlot B — Dedicated to the City <br />• Outlot C — Lake access lot for Lot 4, Block 1 <br />Zoning Change <br />The applicant will be requesting a rezoning from RR to PUD. The applicant would need to <br />request a PUD to allow development flexibility for lot size and lot width. In exchange for this <br />flexibility, the city expects a higher level of design and amenities within a project. The applicant <br />has indicated that they will preserve open space and high quality wetlands, create walking trails <br />meandering the open space, and implement architectural standards for the single family homes. <br />
