Body
Summary:
Applicant: Classic Consulting Engineers and Surveyors
Owner: Gelles Family Trust
Location: Northeast of the Black Forest Road and Woodmen Road intersection

The project includes concurrent applications for a major master plan amendment to the Woodmen Heights Master Plan, a PBC (Planned Business Center) zone change and concept plan for a 3.8-acre commercial site (herein referred as "Woodmen Heights Commercial/Office"), and a PUD (Planned Unit Development) zone change and PUD development plan for a 13.3-acre site to contain a multi-family complex (herein referred as "Copper Range Apartments"). The proposed Copper Range Apartments project will provide 240 dwelling units within the development, completing a very visible segment of the Woodmen Heights Master Planned area.

Previous Council Action:
On June 28, 2016, City Council approved this item on first reading. Council wanted clarification on whether the development will be assessed taxes at the commercial or residential rate, and does the City evaluate the potential impact of development on adjacent property values.

It was determined the development will receive a commercial land use designation for taxation purposes, but will be assessed at the residential rate. At this time, the Planning & Community Development Department does not evaluate the potential impacts of development on adjacent property values.
