Planning Board-Regular

Meeting Date:	01/05/2016
Issue: A Public Hearing Concerning the Review of Redfish Harbor, a Planned Unit Development.
From:	Horace Jones
Department:	Development Services

RECOMMENDATION:

A Public Hearing Concerning the Review of Redfish Harbor, a Planned Unit Development.

That the Board review the development plan for Redfish Harbor residential subdivision, a Planned Unit Development (PUD), and confirm consistency of the plan with Land Development Code (LDC) requirements prior to transmittal of a recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) to review and consider the plan for a final decision.

BACKGROUND:

Hammond Engineering, Inc., project agent and engineer, submitted a preliminary plat and associated subdivision development plans for PUD approval. The development proposes a residential subdivision of 92 single-family lots within a 29.59-acre, two-parcel site (parcel numbers 14-3S-32-1000-040-002; 14-3S-32-1000-050-002) along the north side of Innerarity Point Road at Japonica Avenue. The site is within the High Density Residential (HDR) zoning district and the Mixed-Use Suburban (MU-S) future land use category.

The PUD proposes front and rear yards less than the zoning district minimums and right-of-way widths less than county standards as variances to the applicable provisions of the LDC. As required by LDC Section 2-6.8, the development application is being evaluated through the Development Review Committee (DRC) and the Planning Board prior to potential BCC approval of the plan with its requested exceptions.

BUDGETARY IMPACT:

No budgetary impact is anticipated by the approval of the PUD.

LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS/SIGN-OFF:

The legal advertisement of the PUD has been reviewed and approved for legal sufficiency by Kerra Smith, Assistant County Attorney.

PERSONNEL:

No additional county personnel are required to process the PUD application.

POLICY/REQUIREMENT FOR BOARD ACTION:

Section 2-6.8 of the Land Development Code requires that the Planning Board review the PUD in a quasi-judicial public hearing and transmit its recommendation to the BCC for a final decision on the development plan.

IMPLEMENTATION/COORDINATION:

The PUD has been reviewed and commented upon by the Development Review Committee prior to consideration and recommendation by the Planning Board. Approval of the proposed development plan by the BCC would authorize the applicant to proceed under the conditions of a PUD preliminary plat Development Order, including the subsequent submission of an implementing subdivision infrastructure construction plan for county approval. Upon completion of construction and Final Plat approval, the Building Inspections Department would be authorized to issue permits allowing construction of homes on all residential lots within the subdivision.
