Summary

Council approved zoning and design for the Castle Crossing final PUD (87 manufactured‑home units and a community/storm room) after staff reported a major change: water mains proposed to be public instead of private. Remaining construction documents and agreements will return to council for review.

City planning staff presented the Castle Crossing final planned unit development (PUD), describing 87 manufactured‑home lots, a community room with storm shelter and updated exhibit plans. The major change since preliminary approval is that water mains will be public rather than private, which triggers a change to the maintenance/utility agreements and separate metering for each unit.

Staff reported coordination with public works and the fire chief and recommended conditional approval of zoning and design with the requirement that remaining engineering and construction documents return to council for final review. Council discussed drainage tile discovered on the property and a willingness to share mitigation costs with the developer to reduce the overall purchase price.

A motion to approve the final PUD zoning and design passed by voice vote; council explicitly deferred purchase/agreement approvals until the outstanding engineering items and development agreements return for review.

Staff will bring the utility and development agreements back to the council and continue engineering review to finalize the project’s construction documents.
