RDJ Land Development, LLC submits this request for a change in
zoning in order to develop the subject 20.44 +/- acres into a high-end
single-family subdivision to be known as Cherry Tree Grove (see aerial
map at Tab 2). As proposed, Cherry Tree Grove will consist of 34 home
sites (shown at Tab 3). Home sites within the neighborhood will be
comparable to or larger than those of other nearby developments.
The prices of homes in Cherry Tree Grove are expected to be in
the $350,000 to $700,000 range. RDJ Custom Homes is the planned
builder of the homes. With this proposal, RDJ has included
commitments for the use and development of the site, included at Tab 8.
RDJ received a unanimous favorable recommendation from the
Subdivision Committee at its September 5, 2006 meeting. In response
to the Committee's request, RDJ has agreed to commit to the City's draft
architectural standards as they exist today (included in the proposed
commitments at Tab 8).
If approved, RDJ hopes to begin development work yet this year.
Thank you for your consideration.
