PLANNING REPORT
TO: Albertville Planning Commission
FROM: Cindy Sherman
DATE: February 9, 2001
RE: Albertville - Park View Place 2nd Addn. PUD amendment
FILE NO: 163.06 - 00.35
Request
.
Christian Builders, Inc. have submitted an application to amend the PUD for the
Park View Place 2nd Addition. The request is being made to allow porches as an
option on some of the units, which affects the setbacks as originally approved.
The request is to allow porches to be built within the platted lots of Blocks 3,4,5,
and 6. Porches will be either 10 x 14 or 12 x 12, depending on the space
available within each lot. The setbacks along the rear of the units will be
maintained at 20' or more. The common space is at least 20' wide along the rear
yards and there is wetland open space surrounding the entire plat.
The provisions of a PUD allow flexibility in interior setbacks. Since this plat is
part of a larger development all of the setbacks are considered interior and
therefore can be varied from the standard.
In order to allow porches on some of the units where the buildings have not been
constructed yet, the buildings may be constructed closer to the road but in no
case shall the garage front be closer then 30' to the right-of-way line. Not all of
the lots in the subdivision can accommodate porches.
Porches are proposed as follows:
.
Block 1: No porches
Block 2: No porches
.
Block 3: Porches allowed within lot areas where common space boundary is at
least 20'.
Block 4: Porches allowed within lot areas where common space boundary is at
least 20'.
Block 5: Porches allowed within lot areas where common space boundary is at
least 20'.
Block 6: Porches allowed within lot areas where common space boundary is at
least 20'.
The attached plan identifies the minimum setbacks allowed on the front and rear
of the buildings. All construction will take place within the platted lot created for
each unit.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend approval of the
PUD amendment subject to the following conditions:
.
1. A modified plan shall be submitted that reflects the building footprint on
each block as it is constructed.
2. An amendment to the PUD/CUP agreement be drafted by the City
Attorney for approval by the City and Applicant.
