CONCEPT REVIEW CONSIDERATIONS
Density
❑ The proposal is for 37 units in a single structure located towards the street
side of the site. This results in an approximate 2.0 FAR on this portion of
the site. The immediate adjacent uses are retail to the west, multi -family
to the east, and single family residential to the north. Are there any
potential hurdles from a density standpoint?
❑ The land use code allows an FAR of 0.33 on the rear 50% of the site
which could allow for an additional 8 units. Would this density increase be
discouraged from a P&Z standpoint?
❑ How did the adjacent property (The Atrium) multi -family project obtain a
greater FAR?
Parking and Access
❑ The site is located in the TOD (transit -oriented development) overlay zone
which requires no parking for multi -family. On -site parking will be
provided, but is anticipated to be monthly fee based. Will there be issues
charging a fee for parking?
❑ All vehicular access is proposed on the north from the existing alleys. No
vehicular access is proposed from Laurel, although a pedestrian primary
entry lobby is. Is this an acceptable method of site access? Are there
going to be issues regarding emergency services, postal services, etc?
❑ Are alley improvements going to be required along all three alley access
points, or even at all?
❑ Is access to the alley restricted to one point of entry / exit, or can all drive
lanes connect with alley as the schematic depicts?
