Rosemary Apartments Site Plan and CUP Frenchman Place 41" Addition Final Plat Page 11 Park Dedication The developer is proposing to install a private small park play area for its residents on the property, southwest of the building. This does not satisfy the park dedication requirement. The City Code requires either park dedication of 17 percent of the buildable land area or cash -in - lieu of land (currently $2,400 per unit). Cash -in -lieu of land would be $108,000 at the current rates ($2400 x 45 units). The Parks Commission considered accepting cash -in -lieu of land at its March 20, 2019, meeting and recommended approval to the City Council. Final Plat The applicant is requesting approval of a final plat for Frenchman Place Yd Addition. This project will plat one 1 from Outlot B, Frenchman Place consistent with the preliminary plat. 6. CONCLUSION: The developer has done a good job with the overall site plan and the general design of the building. Staff will continue to work with the developer on the required revisions to the plans and architecture. Staff finds that the proposal meets all the requirements necessary for the City to approve a site plan, conditional use permit, and final plat as outlined in the City Code, if the conditions are met in the attached resolution. 7. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the site plan, conditional use permit, final plat applications subject to the conditions listed in the attached resolution. 8. PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Commission generally liked the plans but had a few questions on the building height, parking, drainage, and architecture. Most of the same answers above were provided. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the applications, subject to the conditions in the resolutions. The vote was 6 to 1. The nay resulted from a concern that the project did not meet the character of the area.
