PURPOSE OF REQUEST:
The applicant intends to construct a multi-family development on 16.5 acres. Site Plan approval by City Council is required for any project involving multi-family use. Development at this location requires City Council approval of a Site Plan because the property is intended for multi-family use.
The purpose of site plan approval is to ensure that development meets requirements in the Unified Development Code (UDC), provides adequate circulation, and uses quality site planning techniques. The UDC identifies criteria for evaluating proposed developments. Criteria include density and dimensional standards, landscaping and screening requirements, and architectural design for special districts.
