REVIEW CRITERIA
1. Compliance with Comprehensive Plan and Unified Development Ordinance: The
Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as Urban Mixed Use and Natural
Areas — Reserved on the Future Land Use and Character Map and is located in the Wolf
Pen Creek District. The Urban Mixed Use designation allows for an intense level of
development activity, which would consist exclusively of residential, commercial, and office
uses in vertical mixed -use structures. Presently the property is zoned WPC Wolf Pen Creek
which encourages the public and private use of Wolf Pen Creek and the development
corridor as an active and passive recreational area while maintaining an appearance
consistent with the Wolf Pen Creek Master Plan. The CUP allows Phase I of this project to
be solely multi -family use.
2. Compliance with Subdivision Regulations: The Preliminary Plan is in compliance with
the Subdivision Regulations of the Unified Development Ordinance.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the Preliminary Plan.
