Lennar tells Winfield commission it will add hardy siding and contribute $450,000 for roundabout
Summary
Lennar told the planning commission it will install hardy board siding on all four sides of the new homes, increase interior specifications, and commit $300,000 upfront plus $150,000 via permits (total $450,000) toward a future roundabout at Gibson Street and 117th Avenue.
At the public hearing, Todd Cleven of Lennar detailed design and infrastructure commitments tied to the proposed Perrin Landing community. Cleven said the company agreed to use hardy board (cementitious siding) on all four sides of the homes rather than vinyl and that interior upgrades would include "gourmet kitchens, deluxe bathrooms," crown molding and higher-quality finishes.
Cleven also described developer-funded infrastructure: an upfront contribution of $300,000 plus $150,000 through the building permit process for a total of $450,000 toward a future roundabout at Gibson Street and 117th Avenue, plus right-of-way dedication and a detention pond intended to provide 100% detention for the roundabout. "We agreed to contribute a lump sum upfront of $300,000 ... and an additional $150,000 through the building permit process for a total of $450,000 contribution to the future roundabout improvements," he said.
The commission expressed interest in seeing sample materials and renderings. Commissioners asked whether renderings could be tweaked post-rezoning; Cleven said the current packet is "version 6" and that earlier iterations took place at staff level, but he offered to circulate samples and replied that certain finish decisions are driven by corporate product line changes.
