BACKGROUND:

 

                     Petitioner:                                          Madison Oaks East, LLC

                     Agent:                                          Stacy Banach

 

The subject property is an undeveloped lot within the West Oaks Phase 1 subdivision. The applicant is proposing to develop a 102-unit affordable senior living housing apartment, a 47-parking space reduction from Sec. 122-1010 of the Land Development Regulations. The development has been submitted for site plan approval.

 

FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS:

The applicant provided a parking study prepared by Hamilton Engineering using the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Parking Generation Manual, 5th Edition. The summary analysis provided identifies the affordable housing project at the 85th percentile rate (0.80 spaces per unit), which has a peak parking demand of approximately 81.6 spaces. The applicant proposes 106 parking spaces, which exceeds the ITE parking demand for the proposed use by approximately 17 spaces.

 

Staff Recommends Approval with the following condition:

 

1.                     The parking analysis was based on Land Use Code 223 - Affordable Housing (Senior) for 102 units. Should the proposed use change, a new parking study will be required.
