Background
The Lakes of Radisson 56th Addition adds 34 single-family lots to "The Lakes" development. Sharper Homes originally proposed to construct 53 small lot single-family detached homes in this plat, but only completed construction on 19 of the lots. Capstone Homes has now purchased the land and is proposing a small lot single-family product that is similar to the product that was previously constructed by Sharper Homes. Product information has been attached as background information and will be guided by the standards contained in the Conditional Use Permit issued by the City Council in 2005 (CUP Resolution 05-42).
The small lot single-family homes will have to meet the setbacks described in the previously approved conditional use permit conditions of resolution 05-42. The City will be requiring that the minimum square footage above grade be 1,240 square feet with a maximum building pad size of 40 feet in width. In addition no side entries will be allowed on the small lot single family homes.
The final plat is consistent with the approved preliminary plat, Resolution No. 05-41. With this final plat of 34 lots the City will have approved 2,546 lots in The Lakes of Radisson development.
Because of the time lag between initial development (2006) and the proposed second phase neighborhood notice was sent.
Recommendation
By motion, approve the Resolution.
