Commission backs annexation and zoning for Brentwood Village mixed‑use concept on Ustick Road
Summary
The commission recommended annexation and zoning of roughly 6 acres along Ustick Road for a mixed-use project called Brentwood Village, including RS‑4, BC and IL zones; the recommendation includes potential development-agreement authority and noted infrastructure obligations.
The Planning and Zoning Commission voted July 15 to recommend annexation and zoning for a roughly six‑acre property at 7799 Ustick Road, advancing a concept called Brentwood Village that would place roughly 1.10 acres into BC (community business), about 4.65 acres into RS‑4 (residential), and approximately 0.25 acres into IL (light industrial) to accommodate an existing cell tower.
Property owner Warren Radjal and engineer Brent Orton presented a conceptual layout for single‑family “quad” homes organized around shared courtyards that the applicants said would offer houses of roughly 2,000+ square feet and would act as a transition between new commercial pads along Ustick and established residential subdivisions to the south and east. “We think this will bring ... a product that is a good transition, as opposed to doing multifamily,” Orton said, noting the design clusters garages away from the street and focuses common space in central courtyards.
City staff said the parcel lies within the City’s area of impact and is designated Community Mixed Use on the future land use map; the requested zones are permitted under that designation. Staff noted utilities would need to be extended through adjacent properties (Jacksons convenience site), and engineering will require dedication of right of way, frontage improvements and a traffic impact study at preliminary plat. The Fire District and police provided standard comments: police recommended a commitment to fund additional officer/staff equivalents; fire had water-supply and access comments.
Commission discussion covered access and road ownership. Applicants proposed a north–south private road (maintained by an HOA) and an east–west public road to align with existing sewer and provide access connecting adjacent subdivisions. Commissioners asked whether Jacksons’ commercial parcel would share an access point; staff noted a condition requiring the two developments to coordinate shared access to locate commercial access further from the intersection.
Commissioner Daffer moved to recommend approval; Commissioner Kehoe seconded. The motion carried on a voice vote. Staff noted the commission could recommend a development agreement to hold the applicant to the concept plan if the commission desired; the commission recommended approval of annexation and zoning without adding a binding site‑plan condition. The recommendation advances to City Council for final action.
