Council reviews large PD amendment that cuts allowable units, alters mixed‑use ratio and phases employment space
Summary
First reading considered rezoning about 100.8 acres (Indigo Ridge South PD amendment) that reduces maximum units from 1,500 to 650, modifies a 60/40 mixed‑use split to a 70/30 residential/nonresidential split in parts of the PD, and commits 150,000 sq ft of employment space in Area A before certain certificates of occupancy.
Council heard a first reading and took public comment on a planned‑development amendment covering approximately 100.8 acres east of West Palmer Lane and south of East Whitestone. Development Services explained the amendment would amend the Indigo Ridge South PD to change permitted mixes and development thresholds, including reducing the maximum residential unit count from 1,500 to 650 and removing the option to request additional units through special permits.
Staff said the PD would adjust nonresidential height and parking allowances in the mixed‑use area, and would include a commitment that 150,000 square feet of employment uses in Area A and 50,000 square feet of nonresidential in Area B be developed prior to certain certificates of occupancy for residential phases. The applicant and council members discussed marketability, phasing, and whether committing employment square footage now limits future economic development options; no final vote was taken.
