DEPARTMENT REPORT
September 6, 2005
8. Docket No. 05050003 Z: Fortune Rezone
The applicant seeks to rezone 43.6 acres from SI to PUD for the purpose of developing a
site with single family homes, townhomes, and limited commercial uses. The site is
located at 2555 W 131st Street and is zoned S1.
Filed by Charlie Frankenberger
The applicant is requesting approval of a Planned Unit Development to allow the construction of
single family detached homes and townhomes, and potentially a civic or limited commercial use
(non retail). This site is located between two sections ofthe Village of West Clay PUD. Neither
section of the adjacent Village of West Clayproperties has been constructed. As proposed in the
exhibits, there will be 123 total units on the site. Please see the updated informational packet for'
details.
The public hearing for this item was held at the June 21 st Plan Commission meeting. Opponents
voiced concerns with the potential increase in traffic, the density of the project, proposed non-
residential uses for sub-area "A", street alignments, and structure height and size. This project
was heard at the August 2nd Special Studies Meeting where members of the public restated their
concerns with density, traffic, and use. At that meeting the petitioner "reintroduced" the proposal
to begin a dialogue with the Committee Members.
Since that time the petitioner has made some requested modifications to the site design, features,
and architectural standards (see Tab 1 ofthe updated informational packet). These include the
relocation of the interior street to better align with property south ofW. 126th Street, as well as an
amended PUD ordinance that specifies height of non residential structures, minimum residential
square footage, and required two car garages for residences. The petitioner will present these
revisions at the meeting and will be take feedback and further direction from the Committee.
The petitioner was also asked to estimate the maximum density for this property given the ROSa
standards (to compare with the density proposed by this rezone). This estimation should be
determined and presented by the petitioner.
Additional review meetings for this item may be warranted. If the Committee determines such
necessity, subsequent meeting(s) should be scheduled at the September 6th meeting.
The Department recommends that the Special Studies Committee forward this item back to
the full Plan Commission after all comments and concerns are addressed.
