STAFF COMMENTS /RECOMMENDATIONS
This proposal is for amulti-family project which will have 240 living units on 16.5 acres for a
density of 14.5 units per acre. Most of the project wi1L be located on the south side of Colgate
between Eastmark and Central Park Lane with 6.4 acres located on the north side of Colgate.
The Design review Board saw the proposal. on May 25th and :required additional information
pertaining to paving materials to be presented at the P&Z meeting. The Board also asked for
details_on benches and walkways. Overall .the Board was in favor of the proposal. having viewed
a video of this. company's similar project in•another state. This video will be shown at the P&Z
meeting.
The sidewalk master plan calls for a sidewalk. along both sides of collectors. There is.a sidewalk
along the north side of Colgate presently and the Board did not see the need for one on the south
side. The Board would support the variance request to eliminate this sidewalk.
Several of the dumpster locations as shown on the site plan would be visible from rights-of--way.
The Board required. these to be relocated and screened and the applicant had no problem with
this.
