The proposed use is not in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan: The use of the property for the development of an apartment complex is a permitted use, while increased density and/or building height requires a Conditional Use. The proposal to have 96 units satisfies the density limitation, however the increase in height from 45 to 55-1/2 feet requires an approved CU. The proposed project is supported within the General Land Use and Residential Area Goals and Policies section of the 2030 Comprehensive Plan. 2. The proposed use is not in conflict with any Regulating Maps or other adopted plan: The subject property in the northeast corner of County Road C and Lexington Avenue does not have a regulating plan, nor is there a small area plan or other that guides future development. 3. The proposed use is not in conflict with any City Code requirements: The CU for increased height is only one step in the project design process. That said, the City has received the first set of plans that it will review against the Design Standards of the Residential Regulations Chapter of the City Code. As for building height, the proposal achieves compliance with all other applicable Code standards. 4. The proposed use will not create an excessive burden on parks, streets, and other public facilities: Although the use will increase the number of residents, it will not create any adverse or excessive impacts to parks, streets, or other public facilities.
