Site Development Standards There are no specific site development standards for the Planned Unit Development zoning district in the City's Zoning Ordinance. The purpose of the PUD zoning designation is to allow flexibility in determining site-specific development standards. The development proposal consists of 5 individual parcels. Each design has the units arranged in an "L" shape on the property to eliminate a cluster design by keeping the units tucked on the back of the property and in keeping with the other surrounding residential buildings. Due to the width of the driveway, proposed at 18-feet, it will be a private drive. The Fire Department has reviewed the width and is supportive of it. Although the proposed development standards do not meet the RM-25 development standards, staff believes that the proposed site layout fits in with the Downtown area. The applicant has strategically located the detached single-family homes along the south and rear sides of the property; emphasizing and enhancing asingle-family streetscape along First Street. Building Architecture Since the original project submittal, the applicants have revised the designs to provide more interest, various materials integration, and more articulation between the units. The buildings will each have a specific color palate adding interest and diversity to the project's streetscape. The roof material on all of the buildings is proposed as architectural grade composition with "Ravenswood" for the new units and a complementary color "Charcoal" for the existing home. The facade change to the existing residence will be similar in color and roofing material as to be complementary to the new units. The proposed buildings are approximately 33 to 35-feet tall when measured from finished grade to roof ridge. The units have a garage in the lower level and two floors of living space above. Each unit has a covered front porch with steps providing direct access to the living area. Staff believes that the proposed vinyl windows, if recessed, will be complementary to the building design. Staff has discussed this with the applicant and has added a condition of approval to reflect this. Each unit offers "historic" colors and varying architectural features and materials to allow for diversity. Parking Access is gained from the new paved driveway off of First Street; no new curb cuts are necessary. The four new residential units each contain afull-sized one car garage on the lower level that is accessed from the existing joint-access driveway. Tandem parking would be provided in each of the driveways with one additional guest parking space being provided between lots 3 and 4. The existing home will have two dedicated parking spaces to be located and striped off along the east side of the existing home. No parking will be allowed in any area of the joint access driveway.
