Workshop The following votes were cast on the Motion: Those voting Yes: Williams, Marriott, Fifer, Ford, Jones, McGoff, Miller The Motion was Approved A. Treeline Sketch Plan, Northeast Corner W. 86th Parkway & Indiana Street Jonathan Moore, Planner with Community Development, said the applicant is requesting review and feedback on two issues: a change in the Comprehensive Plan Land Use map designation for the property and the appropriate zoning for a proposed residential development located at the northeast comer of W 86th Pkwy and Indiana St. The proposed development includes 82 units on 8.76 acres of land for a density of 9.4 dwelling units per acre. The housing mix is 21 single-family units and 61 townhome units. The homes will be two and three-stories, not to exceed 35 feet, contain two or three bedrooms, and range from approximately 1,200 square feet to 1,700 square feet. Formal review of the proposed project would require multiple applications, including: a Comprehensive Plan Amendment, an Outline Development Plan (ODP) amendment to the Leander Parks ODP, a rezoning, and a Preliminary Development Plan (PDP), all of which require public hearings at Planning Commission and City Council. These would be followed by a final development plan (FOP) and a minor subdivision. The site was annexed in 1987 as part of the West Point Parcel B Annexation, which included 241 acres that is known today as Village of Five Parks. At the time of annexation, an outline development plan (ODP) was approved that designated the subject property as commercial. In 1999, the entire 241 acres was rezoned, and a new ODP and PDP were approved, which began the development of the Village of Five Parks. The subject property remained designated as a commercial, retail, and office center intended to be an easily accessible office employment and community retail center for the residents of Village of Five Parks and surrounding neighborhoods. Over the past 20 years, approximately 3 5 acres of land along the Indiana St. corridor between the Union Pacific Railroad and Candelas Parkway have been rezoned and re-designated from commercial or mixed-use to residential use due to market conditions. Despite these changes, there remains approximately 90 acres of land along this corridor already in the city designated for commercial or mixed-use and approximately 120 acres located in unincorporated Jefferson County designated in the comprehensive plan for mixed-use. The subject property and adjoining lot to the southeast of the property sat vacant until 2016 when the adjoining lot was subdivided and development of Prestige Preschool began. At the same time, ---PAGE BREAK--- City of Arvada February 11, 2019 Page4 Storyline Fellowship was exploring the potential of constructing a new church on the subject property, which did not come to fruition. Councilmembers asked several questions and some members expressed concerns regarding the Comprehensive Plan Amendment to increase the density and expressed several concerns including traffic impacts on adjacent streets, parking ratios, density and vehicle access. Next Steps: Staff will work with the applicant regarding their desire to submit a formal application. B. Update Regarding Implementation of Waste Hauler Options - Including an Opportunity for the Public to Share Their Questions About the Project Jessica Prosser, Assistant to the City Manager, said that on December 10, the City Council received a presentation from the Arvada Sustainability Advisory Committee (ASAC) regarding Waste Hauler Options. Council members expressed their appreciation for the research, preparation and presentation from the ASAC and expressed support for additional consideration of waste hauling options. During the City Council Retreat on January 18, the Council asked staff to present additional information, including a potential timeline for implementation of Waste Hauler Options during the Workshop portion of the combined Business Meeting/Workshop scheduled for February 11. Ms. Prosser reviewed the timeline for implementation and said that the information is provided as a very tentative timeline for implementation of Waste Hauler Options. This timeline is aggressive and assumes fairly broad community and Council support for this initiative, as well as a variety of public engagement opportunities prior to critical decision points in the process. In addition, the Council should note that implementation of this initiative will require the engagement ofconsulting resources to evaluate the process, develop the Request For Proposals (RFP) and craft the community engagement and education necessary to implement the final option(s) for Waste Hauler Service that would be delivered through a City-managed contract. Councilmembers asked several questions and offered comments regarding the information that was presented. Members of the public shared their questions regarding waste hauling options. Next Steps: Staff will compile the list of questions from council and the public, then provide additional information to support Council's consideration of this matter. 8. Public Comment - none 9.
