Summary

Council rezoned roughly 42.86 acres from R1-10 to PDR to allow a development reduced to 410 units (144 townhomes and 266 apartments), and added a condition requiring snow-fencing to protect designated undisturbed open-space areas and planning-commission conditions for public-road standards.

Planning staff described a rezone application for approximately 42.86 acres in the Devario area; the project was reduced from an earlier 450-unit approval to a proposed 410 units composed of 144 townhomes and 266 apartments, with dedicated open-space, amenities and required parking. Staff noted the site’s topography influenced building layout and that proposed building heights conform to existing code limits.

Council discussed access and road work for Gap Canyon Parkway and added conditions to the approval requiring snow-fencing to protect areas marked as 'do not disturb' and incorporation of planning-commission comments requiring interior roads meet public-street standards. The ordinance passed unanimously by roll call.
