16-3847 Shadywood Villas July 18, 2016 follows: Page 4 (16) Flexibility. The uniqueness of each RPUD requires that specifications and standards for streets, utilities, public facilities and subdivisions may be subject to modification from the city ordinances ordinarily governing them. The city council may therefore approve streets, utilities, public facilities and land subdivisions which are not in compliance with usual specifications or ordinance requirements, if it finds that strict adherence to such standards or requirements is not required to meet the intent of this section or to protect the health, safety or welfare of the residents of the RPUD, the surrounding area or the city as a whole. This proposed development concept will require a significant departure (flexibility) from the RPUD district lot standards for individual homesites. The table below identifies specific standards which would require flexibility: Relationship to Surrounding Development The subject parcel in many ways represents a transition between the commercial and institutional uses along Shadywood and the residential uses on Lydiard Circle/ Avenue to the south, and Kelly Avenue to the west. The proposed development will have little to no interaction with the adjacent residential neighborhoods as there are no vehicular connections or trails out of the property to the south, north, or west. The portion of the project adjacent to Kelly Avenue is currently a wetland, there are no plans to impact this wetland, other than mitigation of invasive plant material.
