| | | | | | | | Discussion:
D.R. Horton Inc. - Minnesota, applicant and property owner, has applied for Final Plat approval of property located south of County State Aid Highway 78 and East & West of Zumbro Avenue as identified in the attached legal descriptions and concept plan.
The proposed second addition of Highview Park consists 81 units, including 39 single family homes and 42 twin homes.
This property is zoned R-2, Medium Density Zone in the northwestern portion (which consists of the twin homes) and R-1B, Urban Residential Zone. This property is guided Suburban Residential (3-6 dwelling units per acre) and Suburban Edge Residential (0.01 – 3 dwelling units per acre), which is consistent with their proposed plat. The developer would propose homes compliant with the design and performance standards for those zoning districts.
The applicant is close to completing the first phase of this development, so they are now proposing moving forward with their 2nd phase. The developer has provided a narrative describing their timeline and details of this development.
City, County, and SPU staff have spent considerable time discussing details of this project with the applicant. As part of this project, if approved, the developer will continue to provide park dedication fees that the city will utilize to create improvements to Jackson Commons (park located at the southwest corner of CSAH 78 & CSAH 15/Marystown Road). Design of the park improvements has been a joint effort between the city, developer and Jackson Township.
