ADMINISTRATIVE COMMENTS:

 

The proposed development consists of 31 townhomes and will serve as a transition between the commercial development to the east and north and the single family detached residential uses to the west.  The following three variances are requested:  (a) to allow a reduced lot width and reduced control of access for a single-family lot, (b) to waive the requirement for an alley and allow front entry, and (c) to allow for a reduction in the number of required shade trees.  The project supports Big Move Number 5: New Neighborhood Choice from the Lewisville 2025 Plan.  The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended unanimous approval (7-0) on November 20, 2018.

 

RECOMMENDATION:

 

That the City Council approve the ordinance and the three associated variance requests as set forth in the caption above.
