STAFF REPORT
The Planning Manager recommends approval of this request.
Robert Clark, representing the developers of the property, has
requested a zone change from A-R to PUD for 139.84 acres of land
located on the north side of Walden Road, east of Dishman
Elementary School.
The Crescent on Walden development will consist of home lots varying
in size from approximately one acre to zero lot line. This mixed
density development will also contain three separate lakes, the largest
being approximately fifteen acres in size.
The purpose of the PUD District is to encourage the unified design of a
variety of uses in accordance with an approved comprehensive
development plan. This district provides for greater flexibility in the
design of buildings, yards, courts and circulation than provided by
other districts.
Prior to the issuance of any building permit for property located in a
PUD District, a general land use and density plan must submitted to
the Planning Commission. The plan shall include schematic land use
plan identifying proposed general uses, densities, major open spaces
and circulation and access features. A general land use plan has been
submitted as part of this application.
Exhibits are attached.
