City Council Meeting Minutes December 4, 2012 Page 10 of 16 recommended this be a cash payment in lieu of land dedication. The cash in-lieu will advance the connection to the Coal Creek Trail. The Final Development Plan proposes the following phasing plan: • Phase 1A—will start construction in late 2012 and will include 17 outdoor tennis courts (8 of which will become indoor courts under seasonal bubbles in the winter), 8 outdoor clay courts, a pool, a club house in the renovated single family home (existing), and 88 parking spaces. • Phase 1B —will be constructed in July 2013 and include the additional two outdoor tennis courts, southern pool and an additional 49 parking spaces in the southern parking lot. • Phase 2 —is proposed to be constructed in 2017 and will include the 61,000 square foot clubhouse and 6 additional indoor tennis courts. The Tennis Center will operate under the name of the Rocky Mountain Tennis Center as a private membership tennis club and a teaching academy, which will be open to the general public. The Rocky Mountain Tennis Center will be a one-of-a-kind world class tennis facility with operations seven days a week (excluding holidays, 7 am to 10 pm daily). The applicant proposes to convert the existing house to a temporary clubhouse. Waivers—The Tennis Center is an allowed use in the GDP; however, the Commercial Development Design Standards and Guidelines (CDDSG) were not intended to accommodate the unique design requirements of an indoor tennis facility. 1) Building Height—40 feet, Tennis Bubble Setback, Indoor Tennis Court & Clubhouse setback, Parking Spaces, and Sidewalk paralleling Bike Path. Lighting- The Planning Commission conditioned their approval on downcast lighting. The applicant has changed their lighting plan to comply with the condition of approval. Landscaping- The proposed landscape plans for the public ROW and Tract 1 do not adhere to the CDDSG. Landscaping along the frontage of parcels will be installed and irrigated with those parcels. The applicant proposes a more native landscape approach to maintain the rural feel of the corridor and be more compatible with the adjacent Warembourg Open Space. Staff supported this request. Final PUD Development Plan - The Final PUD is generally consistent with the GDP in providing the functional requirements and phasing of the public infrastructure and the proposed land use and its layout, design, and phasing for the 10.75 acre Tennis Center (Tract 1). Development on the property's other tracts and parcels are not being processed at this time.
