History The Crystal Bay Planned Unit Development (PUD) was approved by the City Council on December 1, 2003. The approved PUD Plan included 24 townhouse units in 12 buildings. The proposed townhouses were a 3-story walkout, attached single family style dwelling with an attached garage. Each of the units in these buildings included a 3-car garage, rear yard decks, and approximately 4,610 square feet of floor area. The buildings are 34’ high at the front, with exteriors consisting of a combination of brick and stucco. In October of 2004, the City Council granted a minor amendment to the origi- nally approved PUD. The proposed amendment affected the style, size and ex- terior elevations of the townhouse units. The 3-story walkout buildings were re- placed with a rambler style unit, with a 3-car attached garage, a rear yard deck and a four season porch. The exterior of the building consisted of Hardie Board siding and shakes, rather than stucco and brick. The ground floor area of the units remained approximately the same, and the units fit into the existing enve- lope lots. In 2008, 2012, 2014, 2015, and 2016 the City Council granted other amend- ments to the PUD which allowed for the remaining residential lots to change construction styles for detached single-family units rather than attached twin- home units. Current Circumstance: The current request involves a minor amendment to redesign one building with two attached townhomes (near CSAH 82) to two separate detached single-fam- ily units with 2-car garages on the same lots. This amendment is like the non- riparian units along Drake Circle (Lots 1 & 2) that were approved last year by a similar PUD amendment. The proposed impervious surface amounts for the area would be lowered by over 200 square feet; the exact impervious surface 2 square footage will be reviewed for compliance with these newly proposed amounts with each individual building permit. Section 1106.607 of the Zoning Ordinance allows the City Council to approve minor amendments to an approved PUD Plan by resolution following notification of all owners of property within the PUD. Minor amendments include “changes that increase conformity with Ordinance requirements; decreases in residential density, leasable floor area, building height, impervious surface and/or required parking provided such decreases have a minimal impact on the overall charac- ter of the approved Final PUD Plan as determined by the Zoning Administrator; minor building additions and floor plan modifications that do not increase park- ing requirements or reduce useable open space; and changes that are specified as minor amendments in the approved Development Contract.” Conclusion City staff believes the overall townhome’s design will be maintained through similar color palette, materials, and scale, except for having space between the individual units and an oversized 2-car garage. No other changes to the ap- proved PUD Plan are proposed which would impact streets, utilities, or number of lots. Therefore, City staff recommends approval of the PUD amendment sub- ject to the following conditions of approval: 1. The developer must obtain the required permits from any other state or local agency prior to any work on the site. 2. Heating and cooling units may encroach into the required side yard setbacks and building separation. ISSUES: The main issue is whether the proposed amendment will change the character of the PUD. The proposed amendment also decreases the amount of impervi- ous surface. It should also be noted that the proposed single-family homes will contain the same design, color palette, materials, and scale, except for having space between the individual units and an oversized 2-car garage. The spacing between the proposed single-family homes will have a 10-foot separation. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Motion and a second, as part of the consent agenda, to approve a resolution approving a minor amendment to the PUD Final Plan for Crystal Bay, subject to the listed conditions. 2. Motion and a second to remove this item from the consent agenda for addi- tional discussion. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Alternative #1. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Location Map 2.
