Shores of Oneka Lake Planned Unit Development Preliminary Plat Submittal <br />Page 1 <br /> <br />March 14, 2022 Planned Unit Development and Preliminary <br />Plat Application <br /> <br />Shores of Oneka Lake Planned <br />Unit Development and Preliminary <br />Plat <br /> INTRODUCTION <br />M/I Homes has entered into a purchase agreement to purchase property located between State Trunk <br />Highway No. 61 and Oneka Lake. The 131.66-acre site is proposed to include a total of 218 lots <br />including 109 single family lots, 40 twinhome lots, and 69 villa lots. The housing types are clustered <br />giving the sense of smaller communities within the overall larger neighborhood. Villa Homes are single <br />family homes with association maintenance of yard areas and snow removal. These homes meet the <br />increasing demand for one-level living with association maintenance. Twinhomes will also be <br />association maintained. The association maintenance of lawn areas and snow removal provides the <br />homeowner with the freedom to travel, own a winter or summer home, or more time for recreation. <br /> <br />The mix of housing types and varied lot sizes provides for diversity and interest in the community. <br />Homebuyers will have the ability to select from a wide range of floor plans, exterior materials, <br />architectural features, and landscape designs. Careful attention is paid to ensuring the use of varied <br />elevations and materials to avoid any monotony of architecture from the street. Exterior materials <br />include vinyl siding and may also include stone or brick accents. Attached are elevations for the wide <br />range of floor plans. <br />The site is currently zoned R-3 – Single Family Residential and FUS – Future Urban Service. In order <br />to provide a mix of housing types, M/I is requesting approval of a Planned Unit Development in <br />order to allow for varied lot sizes to create diversity and interest in the community. <br /> <br /> ABOUT M/I HOMES <br /> <br />M/I Homes has been in business for over 40 years and has built over 130,000 homes in 15 markets <br />within the United States.
