Higher density residential uses shall locate in planned unit developments or in close proximity to existing higher density areas. The proposed land use is also supported by other recently adopted City policies and LDGS regulations that strongly promote increased densities, and the location of residential development that is close to parks, shopping, schools, and employment opportunities, strong recommendations by the Planning and Zoning board for a greater mix of housing types, and the creation of affordable housing for the community. Construction is expected to begin in the summer of 1996 and be substantially complete by the fall of 1996. Proposed Ownership . Ownership of the open space and common areas will be the property of the Larimer County Community Land Consortium but will be managed and controlled by the democratically structured Parkway Townhome Chapter of the LCCLC with the assistance of the TRAC administrative technical assistance... The Chapter is similar to a homeowners association except that it may have representatives from surrounding neighbors and the community at large up to 497o of the voting constituency of their governing board. This is a vital part of the neighborhood -community development aspect of the . community land trust method of permanently affordable home ownership which also. features community collaboration. The Luimer County Community Land Consortium holds all land in trust. The homeowners own their own units and control their own lots with 99-year, renewal ground leases.. Since the resident - homeowners are also voting members in the LCCLC, this means, in a sense, they actually lease from themselves. Although they do not own their individual lot they control the activities and uses of the lot which is very close to outright ownership. This method means that limited income persons, families and special populations (disabled persons) can, afford home ownership with its rights and privileges by joining together in an organization which holds the community land in trust to assure its permanent affordability for the next limited persons who might buy if the owners choose to sell. This also protects the one-time grants, discounts and other investments so that affordability does not have to be achieved over and over again. PARKWAY TOWNHOMES P.U.D. A' Statement of Planning Objectives March 18, 1996 The Parkway Townhomes PUD seeks to meet the needs of mixing residential uses within walking distance of nearby commercial uses, shopping, and work opportunities. 'This helps the City's overall goal of reducing Vehicle Miles Traveled. The Parkway Townhomes PUD is also designed to be permanent affordable housing, in an area of the city that does not provide much. affordable housing. This project creates a neighborhood gathering place for its residents and surrounding neighbors and demonstrates the development of a compatible urban residential' neighborhood. Traffic circulation, utilities, and storm drainage are designed in conformance with current plans for the area. The Parkway Townhomes PUD, as proposed, is supported by the adopted Land Use Policies Plan of the City of Fort Collins. Specific policies include: 3a. The City shall promote maximum utilization of land within the city; 3b. The City shall promote alternative modes of transportation; 3d. The City shall promote the location of residential development which is close to schools employment, recreation, and shopping facilities. 12. Urban density development usually at three or more units per acre should be encouraged in the urban growth area. 22. Preferential consideration shall be. given to urban development proposals which are contiguous to existing development within the city limits or consistent with the phasing plan for the City's urban growth area. 75. Residential areas should provide for a mix of housing densities. 76. Density bonuses should be provided to developers who provide low and moderate income housing. 79a. Low density residential uses should locate in areas which have easy access to existing or planned neighborhood and regional/community shopping centers; 79d. Low density residential uses should locate in areas within walking distance to an existing neighborhood park and within easy access to a community park; and 79e. Low density residential uses should locate in areas in which a collector street affords the primary access. 80b. High density residential uses should locate within close proximity to community or neighborhood park facilities; 80c. High density residential uses should locate where water and sewer facilities can be adequately provided; 80d. High density residential uses should locate within easy access of major employment centers; 80f. High density residential uses should locate in areas with provisions for alternative modes of transportation. PARKWAY TOWNHOMES P.U.D.

The Board may table any such decision, until both the staff and the developer have had reasonable time to present sufficient information to the Board to enable it to make its decision. (If the Board elects to table the decision, it shall also, as necessary, extend the term of this condition until the date such decision is made.) If this condition is not met within the time established herein (or as extended, as applicable), then the final approval of this planned unit development shall become null and void and of no effect. The date of final approval for this planned unit development shall be deemed to be the date that the condition is met, for purposes of determining the vesting of rights. For purposes of calculating the running of time for the filing of an appeal pursuant to Chapter 2, Article ll, Division 3, of the City Code, the "final decision" of the Board shall be deemed to have been made at the time of this conditional approval; however, in the event that a dispute is presented to the Board for resolution regarding provisions to be included in the development agreement, the running of time for the filing of an appeal of such "final decision" shall be counted from the date of the Board's decision resolving such dispute. Parkway Townhomes P.U.D. - Preliminary and Final, #9-96 May 20, 1996 P & Z Meeting Page 5 FINDINGS OF FACT/CONCLUSIONS: In evaluating the request for the PARKWAY TOWNHOMES PUD, Preliminary & Final, staff makes the following findings of fact: It is in conformance with the approved South College Avenue Superblock Plan No. 1 approved by City Council in May, 1981. It meets the All Development Criteria in the LDGS. It scores 84% on the Residential Uses Density Chart (supporting the proposed 7.19 dwelling units per acre) in the LDGS. The project location is excluded from the Residential Neighborhood Sign District. All aspects of proposed signage will be regulated by the Fort Collins Sign Code that is administered by the Zoning Department. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the PARKWAY TOWNHOMES PUD, Preliminary & Final - #9-96, with the following conditions: 1. A storm drainage outfall system needs to be designed within the existing sanitary sewer easement that will work for both the Stormwater Utility and the Water/Wastewater Department or the developer must obtain an additional easement for the storm drainage outfall. 2. The Planning and Zoning Board approves this planned unit development final plan upon the condition that the development agreement, final utility plans, and final PUD plans for the planned unit development be negotiated between the developer and City staff and executed by the developer prior to the second monthly meeting (July 22, 1996) of the Planning and Zoning Board following the meeting at which this planned unit development final plan was conditionally approved; or, if not so executed, that the developer or the City staff, at said subsequent monthly meeting, apply to the Board for an extension of time. The Board shall not grant any such extension of time unless it shall first find that there exists with respect to said planned unit development final plan certain specific unique and extraordinary circumstances which require the granting of the extension in order to prevent exceptional and unique hardship upon the owner or developer of such property and provided that such extension can be granted without substantial detriment to the public good. Parkway Townhomes P.U.D. - Preliminary and Final, #9-96 May 20, 1996 P & Z Meeting Page 4 Signage: The project location is excluded from the Residential Neighborhood Sign District. All aspects of proposed signage will be regulated by the Fort Collins Sign Code that is administered by the Zoning Department. 4. Neighborhood Compatibility: A neighborhood information meeting was held on February 15, 1996 at the Harmony Presbyterian Church on Boardwalk Drive. There were 17 people in attendance, including representatives for TRAC, CARE Housing, City staff, and the public. No significant issues or concerns were expressed at this meeting. A copy of the minutes from this meeting are attached to the staff report. 5. Transportation: The development will be accessed from a 20' to 24' wide private, looped driveway that will have two curb cuts, approximately 225' apart, on JFK Parkway. 6. Water Utilities: This development needs an off -site storm drainage outfall onto the property to the south. The necessary storm drainage facilities will share a utility easement with Water/Wastewater. City staff has concerns about the potential grades for storm drainage in this utility easement. Plan & profile information for the drainage outfall and cross - sections showing the sanitary sewer have not been submitted for review. This information would help determine if there are any potential sanitary sewer and storm drainage conflicts. Staff is recommending a condition stating that: A storm drainage outfall system needs to be designed within the existing sanitary sewer easement that will work for both the Stormwater Utility and the Water/Wastewater Department or the developer must obtain an additional easement for the storm drainage outfall. 7. Resource Protection: There is a grove of existing trees at the southwest corner of the property adjacent to the Larimer Canal No. 2. A portion of the grove will be retained; however, due to the location of and necessary regrading for the storm water detention pond, some of the trees will have to be removed. Parkway Townhomes P.U.D. - Preliminary and Final, #9-96 May 20, 1996 P & Z Meeting Page 3 A total of 79 points are earned from the "base criteria" (exceeding the required minimum of 40 points) and the total of 84 points earned on the Density Chart supports the proposed gross residential density of 7.19 dwelling units per acre. South College Avenue Superblock Plan No. 1: This development proposal is in conformance with the South College Avenue Superblock Plan No. 1 that was approved by City Council in May, 1981. The property is part of the BP - Planned Business Land Use portion of the Superblock Plan that defines land uses to potentially include, but not be limited to: Retail shopping centers, gas stations, restaurants, hotels/motels, residential, clubs, medical clinics, and offices. 3. Design: Architecture: The residential buildings are to be approximately 26' in height (not to exceed 36' in height), with each unit containing an attached garage facing the private driveway. There will be two 4-bedroom units and ten 3-bedroom units in this development complex. There will be a community building (approximately 2,500 square feet in size on two floors) that will contain community facilities, one or two small offices, and a small 1-bedroom apartment on the second floor for a TRAC "staff' maintenance person. All the buildings will have lap -board siding and asphalt shingle roofs. Landscaping: There will be deciduous street trees along JFK Parkway and street trees internally, in front of the buildings, along the private driveway. Plantings interior to the site will consist of ornamental and evergreen trees; and, deciduous shrubs, evergreen shrubs, and perennial flowers as foundation and accent plantings. Parking: Each dwelling unit will have an enclosed garage attached to the building (12 spaces) and there will be 19 open parking spaces in three locations along the 24' wide portion of the private driveway. The total of 31 parking spaces for 13 dwelling units (including the "staff' unit in the community building) will provide 2.4 parking spaces per unit. This is considered to be adequate for the bedroom mix in the project. Parkway Townhomes P.U.D. - Preliminary and Final, #9-96 May 20, 1996 P & Z Meeting Page 2 COMMENTS: 1. Background: The surrounding zoning and land uses are as follows: N: hb; existing retail/commercial (Pedersen Used Autos Sales & Service) S. bp; vacant property E: rp; vacant property W: hb; existing retail/commercial (Pavilion Shopping Center) The property was annexed into the City with the South College Properties Annexation in December, 1979. 2. Land Use: This is a request for preliminary and final planned unit development (PUD) approval for 12 multi -family dwelling units and a community building on 1.67 acres located on the west side of JFK Parkway, east of South College Avenue, south of Troutman Parkway, and north of East Harmony Road. The gross residential density is 7.19 dwelling units per acre. This development proposal was evaluated against the All Development Criteria and the Residential Uses Density Chart in the LDGS; and, the South College Avenue Superblock Plan No. 1. Residential Uses Density Chart: This development proposal was submitted to the City on March 18, 1996 and, therefore, is subject to the Residential Uses Density Chart that was revised by Ordinance No. 2, 1996 and approved by City Council in February, 1996. This density chart requires that the project earn a minimum of 70 points to support the proposed density of 7.19 dwelling units per acre and that at least 40 points be earned from the "base criteria". The request scores 84% on the Density chart, earning points for: a) being within 3,500 feet of an existing neighborhood park (Landings Park); b) being within 3,000 feet of an existing major employment center (South College Avenue community/regional shopping center); c) its property boundary having contiguity to existing urban development; d) affordable housing commitment; and e) providing adequate, safe, and convenient pedestrian and bicycle connections from the project to existing City sidewalk and bicycle path/lane.
