Avon planning commission approves Eastern Grama (Easton Grey) amenity center plan
Summary
Commission approved DPR 2418 to build The Haven at Easton Grey amenity center — a 9,000‑square‑foot clubhouse, pools and game courts — subject to an updated landscape plan to screen parking.
The Avon Advisory Planning Commission approved DPR 2418, granting development‑plan approval for an amenity center for The Haven at Easton Grey. The proposal calls for a roughly 9,000‑square‑foot clubhouse with indoor gathering and fitness space, in‑ground pools and outdoor courts (pickleball/tennis), parking and landscaping.
Why it matters: The amenity center is a central feature of the Easton Grey planned unit development and was required by the Easton Grey PUD ordinance. The commission’s approval allows permitting and construction to proceed, subject to standard conditions and required landscape adjustments.
Staff overview and conditions: Staff told the commission the site is in the Easton Grey PUD and that the submitted plans meet the PUD’s amenity‑center description. Town staff recommended approval with standard conditions and requested a revised landscape plan to provide required screening around the parking area, a condition added to the staff’s report. A lighting plan will be reviewed during permitting.
Petitioner presentation and timing: Banning Engineering, representing Lennar Homes, said site grading and public infrastructure are nearly complete and that construction of homes is expected to begin in spring. The petitioner said the amenity area will be built concurrent with home construction so the amenity can open as homes are completed. Building elevations show an all‑brick clubhouse with a steeply pitched roof; the petitioner said the design meets the town’s architectural expectations for the PUD.
Commission action: The commission found the plan consistent with the PUD and UdO standards (subject to minor landscape revisions) and approved DPR 2418 on a motion, recording that the plan satisfied the requirements for development plan review under state law.
Ending: The petitioner will submit a revised landscape plan and lighting plan as required by staff; approval clears the way for the amenity center to be built alongside home construction in The Haven at Easton Grey.
