Body

Presented By: |
Rob Haigh, Planner II |
REQUESTED COUNCIL ACTION:
The applicant’s request is to amend the Bow Mar Estates planned development entitled the “Bow Mar Estates Development Plan,” and more specifically to remove language that prohibits the subdivision of Lot 4, Block 1, Bow Mar Estates Subdivision, and makes other minor revisions to the planned development.
BACKGROUND:
The owner of the subject property intends to subdivide and redevelop the lot into three single-family lots. The current planned development does not allow subdivision of the lot. The applicant and property owner are proposing to amend the planned development to enable the redevelopment of the property. The property is significantly larger than the surrounding properties and the amendment does not propose a reduction in minimum lot size requirements.
PRIOR ACTIONS OR DISCUSSIONS:
Amendments to planned developments are prescribed by the code to follow the same process as the original planned development. The proposed amendment cannot be approved administratively since the amendment will result in additional dwelling units and an increase in total building coverage.
Planning commission heard the case at its meeting November 26, 2018 and is forwarding a recommendation of conditional approval.
This ordinance passed on first reading on December 4, 2018.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
Staff reviewed the amendment to the Bow Mar Estates planned development for compliance with the criteria set forth in section 10-2-23 of the Littleton City Code (LCC), the city’s zoning regulations, the Comprehensive Plan, the Goddard Neighborhood Plan, the existing development, and comments from affected agencies, and is recommending approval of this planned development amendment.
OPTIONS/ALTERNATIVES:
The city council may:
|
● |
approve the request |
|
● |
approve the request with conditions reasonably related to meeting the criteria upon which granting the application would be based |
|
● |
approve a higher classification than requested |

table the matter to a date certain, pending provision of further information by the applicant or staff |
