~ ~ ~ EN HILLS . MEMORANDUM DATE: July 22, 2004 Agenda Item 7.A TO: Mayor and Council Michellc Wolfe, City Administrator Peter Hellegers, City Planner@ FROM: SUBJECT: Timelines for Master and Final Plan PUD's Overview . Thc City Council has requested a revicw of planning case time extensions for Master and Final Plan PUD's. Planncd Unit Developments (PUD's) consist of either a 3-phase (Concept-Master- Final) or 2-phase (Master-Final) process. The Concept Plan is an optional phase which allows the applicant to receive input from the Planning Commission and Council but does not include any binding action. The Mastcr Plan phase sets forth the general parameters of the development (including parking, massing, height, etc.) and is also the main phase of a PUD. The Final Plan phase is an opportunity for the City to review plans and determine that the plans are consistent with the Master Plan. In addition, the Final Plans would inclnde specific details on the amount of landscaping materials, building materials, building design and other site features. Often time the 2-phase process (Master-Final) is handled together as the developer is prepared to proceed to construction plans shortly after review of the PUD. Currently the Zoning Ordinance states that the maximum time between filing the Master Plan and Final Plan shall be within 6 months or whatever time the Council agrees to. After an applicant receives Final Plan approval, the applicant then has I year to apply for a building permit. Thereforc, the current timeline allows up to 18 months (Scenario A) between Master Plan approval and the issuance of a Building Permit (unless the Council grants thc applicant additional time). If the Council grants the applicant additional time there may be more than 6 months between the Master Plan and Final Plan without requiring the applicant to reapply \\Earth\Planning\Forms\07-22-04 Council Memo ~ Tirnelines for Master and Final PUDs.doc Page 1 of3 -
