Planning Objectives
January, 1990
The Platt property is currently proposed for single family
residential development. The 30+ acre site is located
generally west of Shields and is north of Wakerobin and
east of Seneca Street. The site is bordered on the east
by Pleasant Valley and Lake Canal. Adjacent properties
to the south, east and north are undeveloped with little
recent development activity. The site is bordered on the
west by Poudre R-1 facilities Johnson Elementary School
(opened 1989) and Webber Jr. High (to open fall 1990).
Regency Park residential development is planned and under
construction to the southwest. Northwest of the Platt
project, a new neighborhood park is planned. The new schools
and park will serve as a magnet for new west -side development.
The parcel is part of the previously approved Pineview
Master Plan. Pineview Tracts G and F were previously
designated for 72 condo units, 64 townhome units, a 5,000 sq. ft.
day care center and a 3,350 recreation center. The current
proposal is for a less dense 90 unit single-family development
with a pool -recreation center.
The development concept offers an open space buffer along
the ditch and perimeter streets. Natural landscaping with
clustered planting of trees and shrubs will provide low -
maintenance, open space. Variation in side yard set backs
will be proposed with the final plan. A mix of varying
lot sizes are planned to accomodate residential units to be
marketed in price ranges from $90,000 to $150,000. On the
preliminary proposal, streets are designated by a letter to
facilitate development review comments. Street names will
be submitted with revised plans. Construction of the initial
phase is planned for summer, 1990.
The timing and equitable cost sharing of the extension of
streets and sewer services off -site needed in part by this
project proposal and to serve the existing schools and projects
in the future must be cooperatively negotiated with this and
future development projects. The developer has initiated
those discussions with The City and adjacent property owners.
