Visitors present were Cristy Lawrence and Jeff Halliburton of Thomas & Hutton Engineering Company, Rick Fitzer, Brooks Stillwell and Bo Carnell.

Review and recommendation of Amendment # 4 to the Jabot PUD Master Plan.
Jeff Halliburton of Thomas & Hutton Engineering Company presented a brief summary of previous amendments to the Jabot PUD Master Plan. Mr. Halliburton stated that Cristy Lawerence and Brooks Stillwell were also present to answer any questions and Bo Carnell with Memorial is expected. The Jabot PUD Amendment # 4 will update the Jabot PUD and revise specific land uses and development standards for the Harmony Project. Definitions have been included to clarify uses allowed within the Jabot PUD and the Harmony project. The uses have changed in the commercial zoning since the original Jabot PUD was approved. The intent was to list allowable uses that currently exist in the City of Pooler Zoning Ordinance as of this date. Following some discussion about some of the conditional uses allowed in the Commercial Professional Zoning section of the development standards, it was suggested that night clubs be deleted from item # 2, and deletion of item # 4 which included liquor, beer and win package shops. Mr. Halliburton explained that Tract A is proposed to change land use from single family town-homes to a Health Care Campus (HCC) use. Memorial Medical is looking at developing tract A as an all inclusive Medical Campus. Development Standards for the HCC designation are also included. Within the Harmony Project, Tracts B, C, and D are designated as town-home land uses. The following development standards for town-homes have been slightly modified to meet market conditions: The number of dwelling units per building was changed to an average of five dwelling units, unit width was changed to average unit width of 20 feet and minimum setback distance for each residential building shall be 25 feet for the front yard (from edge of nearest travel lane) for clarification. A small, one (1) acre upland adjacent to I-95 labeled Parcel D-D is proposed to be designated as heavy commercial restricted for billboard highway signage use only. Also, development standards for signs and entrance features have been added along with detailed drawings of specific sign types. The original PUD master plan showed all the Harmony project area as a single family land use with an allowable development density of 4 units per acre. Excluding the 32 acre Health Care Campus (HCC) the remaining 261 acres for the Harmony project would have an allowable density of 1044 dwelling units. The proposed project will have approximately 871 units. The gross development density is 3.3 dwelling units per acre. Some comments were made regarding the status of the spine road, limited access thru Quacco Road, dominant signage on Pooler Parkway and time frame for completion of amenity package. With no other comments, Charles Archer made a motion to recommend approval of amendment # 4 to the Jabot PUD Master Plan subject to the deletion of the following conditional uses in C-P zoning: deletion of nightclubs in item 2 and deletion of item 4 (liquor, beer and wine package shops). Motion was seconded by Rebecca Benton and passed without opposition.
There being no further business to come before the PUD Review Board, a motion of adjournment was made by Bob Bukowski and seconded by Greg Long.
