BACKGROUND PAPER FOR PROPOSED
ORDINANCE
COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 9, 2022
TO: President Heather Graham and Members of City Council
CC: Nicholas A. Gradisar, Mayor
VIA: Marisa Stoller, City Clerk
FROM: Scott Hobson, Acting Director of Planning and Community Development
SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE APPROVING THE PUEBLO SPRINGS APARTMENTS
SUBDIVISION
SUMMARY:
The applicant is requesting to create an 18.55-acre, two lot subdivision for the purposes
of constructing an apartment complex.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
City Council approved Ordinance No. 10055 on November 22, 2021.
BACKGROUND:
Pueblo Springs Apartments development is located at the intersection of Pueblo
st
Boulevard and West 31 Street. The subject property was annexed and zoned to A-1 as
a holding zone until development plans were finalized (via rezoning case Z-21-12). The
applicant is proposing to create a two-lot subdivision for multifamily residential
development, which will be constructed in two phases. The initial phase will be
constructed on Lot 1. The property slopes from Pueblo Boulevard to the east. A
substantial small hill/bluff buffers the property from Pueblo Boulevard and will be retained
as open/natural area. The proposed development has no internal streets, so a 20-foot
public utility and sanitary sewer easement has been added to the plat to ensure access
to all proposed apartment buildings and utilities. Lot Two will have a relatively narrow
st
frontage along 31 Street and the plat shows this area will be obstructed by a stormwater
retention pond, so the applicant has added a 20-foot access easement to Lot 2 through
the easterly portion of Lot 1. The owner is requesting deferred filings for construction
plans and profiles, offsite easements, and the Subdivision Improvement Agreement. The
applicant is requesting a waiver for fees in lieu of park dedication based on the onsite
amenities (which include a clubhouse, pool, and grassed open space) and preservation
of open space on the western side of the parcel. The fee waiver Resolution will be
presented to City Council on December 13, 2021.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
There are no financial implications for the City.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their December 8, 2021 Regular Meeting, voted
7-0 to recommend approval.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
The Planning Department sent out Notice of the Planning and Zoning Commission Public
Hearing to all property owners located within 300 feet of the subject property.
ALTERNATIVES:
If City Council does not approve this Ordinance, the site will not be resubdivided which
will impede development of the site.
Upon request of City Council, the Ordinance could be returned to the Planning and Zoning
Commission for consideration of proposed modifications.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Ordinance.
Attachments:
Proposed Ordinance.
