5/18/83 Page -6- ~L.aff Comments Density Director Rupp stated that Mr. Anderson gave an accurate report of the application relative to the density and the joint access on South Boulder Road. Rupp further advised that the Hillside Square development was actually being developed with R-M density. Therefore, the R-M zoning was recommended by staff and Plan- ning Commission to the Council. The alterna- tive proposal as stated by Mr. Anderson is often reviewed in some P.D.D. developments, i.e. where there is a legitimate density consideration transfer from an area before it has been dedicated to the City, specifi- cally the South Boulder proposal. In this case it amounted to approximately 3.7 units. Rupp verified that the site was very restricted due to the ditch and the amount of land being taken for the right-of-way; therefore, per- haps during the P.D.D. process the additional 3.7 units could be taken into consideration and review. He further advised there is a section in the P.D.D. ordinance that allows for an increase in the number of units on the site given the aspect of the site plan, and the possibility exists. Staff generally agreed with everything in principle with the exception of the number of units, density, and zoning. COUNCIL COMMENTS Councilman Leary Density Wished to verify with Director Rupp that if councilmembers acted on the ordinance as pro- posed, the matter of density and zoning could be appropriately deal:twith with the -P ~ D .D._ pro.cess and go back to the Planning Commission first. Rupp stated that was correct. However the applicant was concerned with the number of units that they would be able to build on the property. Leary stated before he wished to make that decision he would table the matter and have it reviewed by the Planning Commission. Steve Anderson stated it would be a difference of 14-17 units versus 21. Rupp advised there would be 21 units with the R-H zoning, 14 units with the R-M and the possi- bilty of 17 reviewing the gross site area with- out the dedication.
