The PUD REVIEW BOARD COMMITTEE held a called meeting on August 23, 2004 at 5:30 p.m. at Pooler City Hall.  Members present were:  Wilson Roberts, Larry Olliff, Don Taylor, Tim Lovezzola, Mary Louise Lanier, Dennis Jones, Jim McQueeney, City Planner Robbie Byrd, Zoning Administrator Jackie Carver, Councilwoman Rebecca Benton and Councilman Michael Royal.  Visitors were Jerry Konter, Harvey Gilbert, Steve Wohlfeil, Hal Kraft, Jim Woods, Philip Morgan, Bill Dempsey, Henry Morgan and Harold Yellin. 

Review and recommendation of Amendment # 1 (including development standards) for the Morgan Family PUD Master Plan located on Pine Barren Road.  Commissioner Wilson Roberts recused himself for any discussion on this item.  Jim Woods of Jim Woods, Inc. presented this request to the PUD Review Board for their review and recommendation.  Mr. Woods explained the Morgan Family is requesting an amendment to their PUD Master Plan that would change the zoning of 36.41 acres from multi-family to single family.  This would reduce the allowable density from 684 to 162 units.  He reviewed the proposed development standards for proposed detached single family units and attached single family units.  The second part of the amendment was to relocate the Spine Road in the Light Industrial area and the two commercial tracts to the south need a right-in, right-out access to the Pooler Parkway.  Mr. Woods stated that the changes in the location of the Spine Road and the right-in, right-out access to the Pooler Parkway would need the approval of Chatham County.  Bill Dempsey of Dempsey Land Design presented an overview of the proposed development.  This is a community with four different housing projects.  The homeowners association will maintain the roads and openspace.  Two access points are proposed, one from Wild Cat Dam Road and one from Pine Barren Road. Buffers are proposed around the perimeter of the development and between the neighborhoods.  Jerry Konter discussed the different neighborhoods, the size lots proposed and average cost of the homes. The proposed town homes will be maintenance free and located around squares with lots of greenspace. With no further comments, a motion was made by Dennis Jones to recommend approval of amendment # 1 to the Morgan Family PUD Master Plan contingent upon Chatham County’s approval of the relocation of the Spine Road and the right-in,right-out access to Pooler Parkway.  Motion was seconded by Don Taylor and passed without opposition. 

Discussion of proposed changes in the PUD Ordinance.  The board was given some handouts that listed some changes to review and discuss at a later meeting.   

There being no further business to discuss, Wilson Roberts made a motion to adjourn at approximately 6 p.m.  Motion was seconded by Michael Royal and passed without opposition.
