Final PUD Zoning approval of Morgan Lakes, Parcel I (Phases 1-6) located on the north side of Jimmy DeLoach Parkway. Ryan Thompson of Thomas & Hutton Engineering Company presented the plans for parcel I of the Morgan Lakes PUD Master Plan. City Council approved preliminary PUD zoning for this property on April 18, 2004. The purpose of this submittal is to acquire Final PUD zoning for Parcel I (Phases 1-6). Parcel I consists of approximately 414 acres and will contain a mixture of single family detached and multi-family attached residential units (town homes). A total of 801 units are proposed in Parcel l. The development standards have not changed from what was approved during the preliminary PUD zoning. There were comments made regarding the number of lots with less than 7,000 square feet and the distance from the nearest turn-around on Jimmy DeLoach Parkway. Mr. Thompson stated that the potential build-out is 125 housing units a year over a 5-6 year period. A major concern expressed by the board was the proposed 15’ rear setback from the alley for a garage or accessory structure. The board felt this concern had been forwarded to council during the preliminary zoning review of this project but was unsure of what council approved. Mrs. Carver stated she would pull the file as to what was approved by council and report during the Planning and Zoning meeting. With no other comments, Dennis Jones made a motion to approve the Final PUD Zoning of Morgan Lakes, Parcel I (Phases 1-6). Motion was seconded by Larry Olliff and passed without opposition.
Discussion of Development Standards and Final PUD Zoning of SW Quadrant of Savannah Quarters, Phase 7(commercial area of approximately 160 acres). Steve Wohlfeil of HGB&D presented the development standards and an overview of proposed projects in Phase 7 of the Southwest Quadrant. This is a mixed-use commercial area of approximately 160 acres. He stated that Glen Hall and Renfro Development are excited about a 16-18 screen movie theater proposed within this phase. Other uses include retail, a grocery, restaurants, office and an amusement park. Mr. Wohlfeil also stated that in order for this phase of development to proceed, water/sewer plans need to be approved and a subdivision plat needs to be recorded. Furthermore, that he is working on a tight schedule to meet certain deadlines. This item will be considered for action during the August 9th PUD Review Board and Planning and Zoning meetings.
There being no further business to come before the PUD Review Board, a motion of adjournment was made by Rebecca Benton and seconded by Mike Royal.
