MEMO <br /> DATE: November 14, 2000 <br /> TO : Planning and Zoning Committee <br /> FROM: Jim March <br /> RE : Staff report on proposed PUD - Pheasant Marsh <br /> BACKGROUND <br /> The proposed PUD to be known as Pheasant Marsh is being submitted by the <br /> development firm known as Ground Development Inc. The original date for this request <br /> is October 26 This company has operated for several years as a land developer and has <br /> proven that they can complete a variety of subdivision projects. The firm has a long list <br /> of references. <br /> The property that is being proposed for subdivision consists of approximately 54.73 <br /> acres. The proposed subdivision would create 88 single - family residential lots. The <br /> developer is proposing that the subdivision would be a phased development, probably <br /> consisting of about three separate phases. Approximately two - thirds of the property is in <br /> the MUSA stage of 2001- 2005. <br /> ANALYSIS <br /> The engineering firm James R. Hill, Inc. has submitted a set of plans for preliminary <br /> review. According to the PUD section of the newly adopted Ordinance #4, this <br /> information is much more detailed than necessary for preliminary review. <br /> I am expecting to have comments on the plat from the City Engineer for distribution at <br /> the meeting. Included in your packet is a letter from a resident that has concern for the <br /> timing of this development. I also received a letter from a local business owner this <br /> morning that wanted to be placed on the record that he is in favor of this development <br /> being approved. I had a conversation with school district superintendent Dr. John <br /> Christianson in regards to this development. Dr. Christianson indicated that he is sending <br /> a letter in regards to the school districts capacity issue. I have not seen a copy of the <br /> letter at this time. I am hoping that the letter arrives prior to the meeting. <br />
