PURPOSE: This request is for an amendment to the Palm Valley Phase V PAD to change the land use designation on a vacant 9.70-acre parcel at the northwest corner of Indian School Road and Falcon Drive from MUC - Mixed Use Commercial to UR/H - High Density Residential (12-18 du/ac), as amended by the Avilla Planned Area Development (PAD) Amendment to allow development of 125 attached or detached single-story residential dwellings for lease at a density of 12.9 units per acre. The proposed Avilla development is a “leased home neighborhood” that combines the elements of single-family and multi-family residential living environments. Since the City has received written protests against this rezoning request from owners of more than 20% of the land area within 150’ directly opposite of or adjacent to the side of the subject property, pursuant to Article 1, Section 1-3-1(D) of the City’s Zoning Ordinance, a favorable vote of three-fourths (3/4) of the governing body (6 out of 7 members) will be required to approve and adopt Ordinance No. 14-1291.
