Background
In 2014 the City Council approved a conditional use permit that set up the standards for development of 170 single family homes in Parkside North. Parkside North at the southeast corner of Lexington Avenue and 125th Avenue and is being developed by Paxmar Development and has several different home builders. At the time of the approval in 2014 the builder for the single family homes were not known.
Resolution 14-240 was approved by the City Council with a corner side yard setback of 25 feet based on information provided by the general developer. As DR Horton began the development and reviewed homes with potential buyers, they realized that many of the homes they would like to construct would require the more typical 20- foot side yard setback. A 20-feet corner side yard setback is generally the standard in most of our single family developments. The original proposed corner side yard setback of 25 feet was provided by the developer prior to home builders being decided for the development. Three homes have been constructed so far on the 13 corner lots within the 170 single family lots of Parkside Development. The property owners of all corner lots within the development have been notified.
All other standards will remain unchanged in Resolution 14-240.
Recommendation
By motion, approve the Resolution.
