In response to Council Member McCluskey's question about the development
at the NE corner of Shields/Harmony.
A green sign had been placed by the Planning Department on the property at
the northeast corner of South Shields Street and West Harmony Road to notify
people of a neighborhood information meeting that was scheduled for February
13, 1995, to discuss the Woodlands P.U.D., 2nd Filing (a 120 dwelling unit
multi -family housing project).
A development proposal for 120 multi -family dwelling units on 9.8 acres, at
the northeast corner of South Shields Street and West Harmony Road, was
approved by City Council on August 5, 1980. The development under took
"significant activity" within the prescribed 2-year time frame from the date
of approval; therefore, the P.U.D. plan is considered to be valid with a
vested right to construct the project. The development being proposed now
is for 120 multi -family dwelling units on 9.8 acres in the same configuration
as previously approved. The only difference is the addition of 1 building
that will be a clubhouse/recreation center for the project.
The history on this piece of land is as follows:
1. It was part of an 80.66 acre, 410-unit P.U.D. that was approved by City
Council on February 6, 1979.
2. It waspart of a 26.2 acre, 48 single family residential and neighborhood
Convenience Center P.U.D. that was denied by the Planning and Zoning Board on
December 19, 1988.
3. It was submitted as an 8.8 acre neighborhood convenience center P.U.D.
that was denied by the Planning and Zoning Board on May 16, 1989.
No further development proposals for something other than the 120 multi -family
dwelling units on 9.8 acres has been requested.
An administrative change (to the P.U.D.) request was submitted by Kaufman and
Broad Multi -Housing Group on February 1, 1995 to change the name of the project
from Woodlands Condominiums to Woodlands Apartments. In addition, the request
