Case Notes
− +Staff Recommendation
ADOPT RESOLUTION # 7-G-13-SP, amending the Southwest County Sector Plan to HDR (High Density Residential) and recommend that City Council also approve the sector plan amendment to make it operative. (See attached resolution, Exhibit A.)Allowing high density residential uses at this location within the town center development will bring more residents to the area to support the surrounding town center development. Previous town center plans had shown apartments to the north of this site where the new elementary school is now being developed. This site had been designated for townhouses. Both of these uses would have required residential densities at least in the medium density range. Location of apartments on this site may be more appropriate as it is closer to Northshore Dr. and more on the edge of the overall town center development.
