Summary: This project consists of five applications:

2. A rezoning of 10.5 acres zoned A/AO (Agricultural with Airport Overlay) to PBC/AO (Planned Business Center with Airport Overlay);

4. A rezoning of 21 acres from A/AO (Agricultural with Airport Overlay) to PUD/AO (Planned Unit Development, single family detached, 35-foot maximum height, 4.78 du/ac with Airport Overlay) for a single family residential development; and
5. A development plan for a 101-lot single family (small lot PUD) development.

The commercial 10 acres also includes a five-lot concept plan. The residential component, consisting of 21 acres, includes 101 single family lots in general conformance with the City's small lot PUD design manual.
Financial Implications: None
Board/Commission Recommendation: The Planning Commission unanimously approved all five requests at their March 20, 2014 meeting.
Body
Stakeholder process: The public process involved the mailing of postcards to seven property owners within 500 feet of the applications and posting of the property. The same notification and posting occurred prior to the Planning Commission meeting. No comments were received. Plans were also sent to standard internal and external review agencies for comments, including Colorado Springs Airport, Colorado Springs Utilities, Engineering and Traffic/Transportation. No significant issues were identified and technical comments have been incorporated into the Planning Commission approval.
