Title
Resolution to Approve The Annex (formerly Woodbury Club Apartments) Revised Elevations, Nixon Road
Memorandum
On September 6, 2016, City Council approved the Woodbury Club Apartments Planned Project Site Plan to construct a three-story, 276-unit residential community on this 54-acre site. The development agreement, also approved by Council on September 6, 2016, included a provision that the construction of the buildings be consistent with the elevation drawings approved as part of the site plan. If the petitioner were to propose material changes to the elevations, setbacks, aesthetics, or materials, City Council approval would be necessary.
Since Council approval, the petitioner submitted an administrative amendment to the approved site plan to eliminate the northern-most building, reduce the number of dwelling units from 276 to 264, reduce the number of parking spaces from 553 to 550 with 15 spaces being deferred, and increase the amount of open space from 74.1% to 76.4%. The petitioner is also asking to modify the façade of the building, which cannot be addressed with an administrative amendment.
The proposed façade will increase the amount of windows from 19.2% to 21.8% of the façade, reduce the height by approximately a half foot, maintain the amount of masonry and balcony space, and maintain the sloped roof.
Staff has reviewed and supports the proposed changes to the building elevations.
If City Council approves these proposed revisions, staff will finalize the administrative amendment that reflects these changes.
Approval of the attached resolution will allow the modifications to the elevations as the petitioner moves forward to obtain building permits.
