Public Hearing: OP5 Adelaide, LLC — A PUD amendment request to change setback requirements for Adelaide Landing Staff provided background on the request from OP5 Adelaide, LLC for a PUD amendment to revise the building setback requirements for 50-foot wide single family lots on the northern portion of the Adelaide Landing development. The approved setbacks on 50-foot wide lots are: 25 feet for the minimum front setback, 25 feet for the minimum front setback for side of the home on corner lots, 7.5 feet for the minimum side setback, and 30 feet for the minimum rear setback. The new proposed setbacks are: 25 feet for the minimum front setback, 20 feet for the minimum front setback for side of the home on corner lots, 5 feet for the minimum side setback, and 25 feet for the minimum rear setback. The number of proposed lots will not change. The original preliminary plat and PUD were approved in 2017 and the applicant has since final platted majority of the development. Staff showed an illustration of the proposed setback changes and stated that only three lots would need the 5 foot side yard setback and that is only at the corners of the lot. The applicant is proposing the same villa product from earlier phases of the development and staff noted that the garages will be flush with the front of the home, adding to curb appeal. In exchange for additional flexibility the applicant has provided a revised landscape plan that includes additional landscaping along the north and west sides, than what was previously approved with the development. Staff recommends additional landscaping for a buffer with a combination of deciduous and coniferous trees. Staff believes that the layout of the proposed Adelaide Landing PUD general plan exceeds the City's standards for residential developments and that the PUD amendment is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. Staff recommends approval of the OP5 Adelaide (Excelsior Group) PUD amendment for the development known as Adelaide Landing, subject to the conditions listed.
