Multi -family is an allowable use within a Regional Shopping Center in the
Harmony Corridor. Similarly, the 4,000 square feet of non-residential (office,
retail or personal service shops) is also allowed within such a center. The
clubhouse, pool and bed and breakfast guest rooms are considered accessory
and also permitted. The project is fully integrated and designed to function in
coordination with the Harmony Centre shopping center.
3. Applicable Zone District Standards:
The site is located within the H-C, Harmony Corridor district. There are no zone
district standards that pertain to the platting or replatting of property.
4. Applicable General Development Standards:
A. Section 3.3.1(B)(1) — Lots
The Replat creates no new lots or new dwelling units. The existing lot will
continue to have vehicular access to both Harmony Road and an
emergency access lane to Home Depot. The access points are reserved
by dedication of private access easements. There are no public streets
within Settlers Creek.
B. Section 3.3.1(8)(2) — Lots
There is no new street right-of-way dedicated by this replat as J.F.K
Parkway is already dedicated to the proper standard arterial cross-section.
The plat also dedicates numerous drainage and utility easements as
necessary to accommodate the enlarged garages and existing and
proposed utilities.
In general, the replat preserves existing utilities and easements and grants
and dedicates additional easements in such a way as to provide adequate
area for all affected utilities.
C. Section 3.3.1(C)(1) — Public Sites, Reservations and Dedications
There are no additional public sites, reservations or dedications needed as
a result of this proposed replat.

COMMENTS:
1. Background:
The surrounding zoning and land uses are as follows:
N: H-C; Existing Multi -family (Somerset and Park Place - Reflections)
S: H-C; Existing Retail (Home Depot)
E: M-M-N; Landings Neighborhood Park
W: H-C; Existing Retail (Goodwill Industries)
The site was once a part of the Super Block Plan that master planned the
general area bounded by College Avenue, Harmony Road and Boardwalk Drive
back in the late 1970's. This Plan was done in conjunction with the formation of
the Heart Special Improvement District that financed and constructed the public
streets and other facilities in the Super Block area. This S.I.D. has since been
closed out.
The parcel was designated by the Harmony Corridor Plan as being part of the
Harmony Center Mixed -Use Activity Center— Regional Shopping Center.
Harmony Centre Regional Shopping Center was approved in May of 1997 for
339,634 square feet on 36.83 acres on the site of the former Pioneer Mobile
Home Park.
Settlers Creek P.D.P. was approved for 231 dwelling units in November of 2004,
including a Modification of Standard to Section 3.5.2(C)(1)(2) which allowed
Buildings C,D,E,F and G to be located further than 200 feet from the sidewalk
along J.F.K. Parkway or 350 feet if connected by a major walkway spine.
Settlers Creek Final Plan was approved for 229 dwelling units in February of
2007 under different ownership.
Since the approval of the Final Plan, Pavilion Lane has been extended east to
form a tee intersection with J.F.K. Parkway as part of the Goodwill Industries
development.
2. Harmony Corridor Plan:
The site is located within the Harmony Corridor Plan and within a specifically
defined area designated as "Potential Regional Shopping Center or Community
Shopping Center." This is an area bounded by College Avenue on the west,
Troutman Parkway on the north, Boardwalk Drive and Landings Park on the east
and Harmony Road on the south.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This is a request to replat Settlers Creek in order to accommodate one additional
van -accessible handicap parking space located within Building Envelope 8. By
adding this one handicap parking space, Building Envelope 8 must be enlarged
and all five garages along the south edge of the property are impacted. The
enlargement of one garage and the shifting of four garages cause an
encroachment into dedicated utility easements. In order to adjust the building
envelopes and easements, the plat must be revised. The proposed replat makes
these adjustments.
The site is bounded by J.F.K. Parkway on the west, Home Depot on the south,
Landings Park on the east and Park Place (Reflections Apartments) at the
Landings on the north. The parcel will remain zoned H-C, Harmony Corridor.
There would be no increase in the number of dwelling units (229).
RECOMMENDATION: Approval
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The request to replat Settlers Creek is in conformance with the applicable
General Development Standards of Article Three of the Land Use Code. There
are no applicable zone district standards in the H-C zone that pertain to the
subdivision or replatting of property.
