EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Property Situation
The property is located at 930 E. Dove Road; east of the previous Carroll Middle School
which is currently being used as a Carroll school district administration and service
center.
Development Details
The applicant is proposing a residential planned unit development for twelve (12) lots on
ten (10) acres.
Hat Creek will be building all of the homes.
The proposed homes will range from 4,000 to 5,000 square feet with 3 to 4-car garages.
The price point stated $750-$900K.
HOA maintained green space.
Open entrance area with approximately 1.2 acres off of Dove in order to save a mature
existing tree.
Wrought iron fencing and natural buffers for privacy.
The plan presented at SPIN:
QUESTIONS / CONCERNS
Are you building fencing throughout?
There is some existing wood and wrought iron; we will work with homeowners to
Î
build or continue fencing. We plan on wrought iron as much as possible to keep
an open and modern feel to this neighborhood.
What about the open lot on the west side?
We would like to keep it open with a five (5) foot wrought iron fence. We are also
Î
planning a trail through our property so we could possible connect with a gate to
this property and construct a trail.
What about the flowage / run-off easement?
Most of the water flows to the center and then runs to the west to an existing
Î
culvert and then back south. Our development will have curb and gutter.
Do you plan to have wrought iron fencing along the front?
No, nothing along the frontage.
Î
Do you have a name yet?
Î
still researching at this time.
Will you have a big sign at the entrance?
No
Î
What then?
The entrance will look wide open with trees and landscaping.
Î
Did you say you did Estes Park?
Yes, I was involved in Estes Park; also, Carroll Meadows, Oak Pointe, Sandlin
Î
Manor, High Point, Shady Oaks, Stratfort Gardens, Lonesome Dove Estates,
Southview Estates and Cannon Homestead.
What are these houses going to sell for?
$750 - $900K
Î
And the lot sizes?
Î
will be 2.46 acres of open space.
So these are half acre?
Yes, similar to what you would see in an SF-20 only we are doing an R-PUD.
Î
How far offset from the street are the houses?
Minimum 30 foot front setbacks; rear setbacks at 40 feet.
Î
How wide is the street?
The street will be city standard at 31 feet back to back.
Î
Why this serpentine street configuration?
We listened to the meetings involving the previous development proposals for
Î
up to our houses. We also want to save as many trees as possible which is why
our frontage off Dove is over an acre.
Why do you feel your proposal will succeed where others have failed?
The economics of this piece and getting to where it is a quality development that
Î
has little impact on adjacent property is not possible. We are making it
economically possible by building the homes ourselves.
I have concern for one of the configurations of the home as it has potential to view my
backyard.
We will mitigate for privacy with trees and fencing.
Î
When will you go to P&Z?
Hoping for the end of September and begin construction by the beginning of next
Î
year. It will take us about 18 months to build.
