RE: Oakgreen Village South, PUD Concept Plan application.
71
Valley Senior Service Alliance has submitted an application for Concept approval for
development on land south of 58 Street and west of Oakgreen Ave. The proposed site
plan includes 37 — two story townhom.es. Building placement and site grading will
maximize a vegetation buffer to the south of the new homes and adjacent to the homes on
56 Street. Existing trees will be evaluated to retain those of ualit , inferior vegetation
q y g
will be removed and new trees will be planted to provide appropriate screening between
buildings.
All site drainage will be directed to run between the new buildings in a northerly
direction to a small pond adjacent to 58 Street, and then under 58 Street to the exiting
wetland.
The homes will range in size from 1400 square feet to 1800 square feet. Homes will be
for sale with a market price ranging between $175,000 and $225,000. Alt units will have
two -car attached garages, parking space in the driveways plus 10 visitor parking spaces.
An aerial photo has been provided with our application material. Upon approval of the
Concept Plan we will conduct the required tree inventory.
The total area included in this application is 279,510 square feet. The 37 homes will
cover 70,310 square feet. This area includes the building footprint, decks and adjacent
sidewalks. Driveways and guest parking occupy 58,200 square feet. The remaining area
of common space, including sidewalks is 151,000 square feet.
Since these homes wilt be offered for sale, we anticipate that construction of one building
would begin shortly after all city approvals are in place. Additional buildings will be
constructed as units are sold. It is possible that the total project wilt extend over two
construction seasons.
Maintenance of common areas and building exteriors will be handled by an association.
Appropriate documents will be completed upon approval of the project.
