Commission approves Silver Springs amenity center — pools, playground and parking included
Summary
The commission approved DPR 2507 for an amenity center within the Silver Springs subdivision: a half‑acre site with a pool house, two in‑ground pools, restrooms, playground, parking and landscaping; staff found the revised plans meet UDO requirements and no waivers were requested.
The Advisory Plan Commission approved DPR 2507, a development plan review for an amenity center in the Silver Springs subdivision. The approved plan places a pool house with restrooms and equipment, two in‑ground pools, an outdoor playground, landscaping and an off‑street parking area on approximately 0.6 acres of the subdivision’s common area.
Staff reported the amenity center plans were revised following Technical Advisory Committee comments and now meet the requirements of the Unified Development Ordinance. "Staff finds that the revised plans that were submitted after the technical advisory committee meeting do appear to meet all of the requirements of the UDO," a planning staff member said during the hearing.
The petitioner’s engineer said the parking lot provides 10 off‑street spaces and the design includes on‑street parking opportunities on the adjacent internal street; the plan also includes bike racks and a pedestrian crossing with a speed table. Austin Lewis of Banyan Engineering said the design incorporates a pedestrian speed-table crossing and rapid‑flashing signs across Faith Way to improve visibility.
No waivers were requested; approval was recommended as a ministerial action because the plans comply with the UDO. The commission approved DPR 2507 subject to the standard conditions listed in the staff report and applicable town code prior to construction.
