FROM:            W. Calvin Horton, Town Manager

SUBJECT:       Providence Glen Condominiums – Application for Special Use Permit

DATE:             April 24, 2000

                       

INTRODUCTION

Tonight the Council continues the Public Hearing from April 10, 2000 regarding the Special Use Permit application for a multi-family development on 23.7 acres of land on the south side of Sterling Drive, north of the Lowe’s site.  Adoption of Resolutions A, B, C, D or E would approve a Special Use Permit application.  Adoption of Resolution F would deny the request.

Please refer to the accompanying memorandum for a discussion of the accompanying Zoning Atlas Amendment application, to rezone this property from Residential-2 to Residential-5-Conditional.

This package of materials has been prepared for the Town Council’s consideration, and is organized as follows:

¨      Cover Memorandum:  Provides background on the development proposal and the Town’s review process, and offers recommendations for Council action.

¨      Attachments:  Includes resolutions of approval and denial  and a copy of the February 28 Public Hearing memorandum and its related attachments.

BACKGROUND

January 19, 2000          Public Hearing for consideration of a Special Use Permit application to authorize construction of a multi-family was held.  The Council determined that contiguous property would be defined as those properties within 1,000 feet of this site.

February 28, 2000       Public Hearing was continued.  Questions raised at the January 19 Public Hearing were answered.  A Council member asked the applicant to consider providing 20 units at a sales price between $130,000 and $140,000.  The Hearing was continued to April 10.

April 10, 2000              The applicant requested additional time to consider the Council request.  The Hearings were continued to tonight.

process

This is an application for a Special Use Permit.  The Development Ordinance requires the Town Manager to conduct an analysis of this Special Use Permit application, to present a report to the Planning Board, and to present a report and recommendation to the Town Council.  We have reviewed the application and evaluated it against Town standards; we have presented a report to the Planning Board; and on January 19 and February 28 we submitted reports and recommendation to the Council. 

The standard for review and approval of a Special Use Permit application involves consideration of four findings.  The Council must make all four of these findings in order to approve a Special Use Permit application: 

1)                  That the use or development is located, designed and proposed to be operated so as to maintain or promote the public health, safety, and general welfare;

2)                  That the use or development complies with all required regulations and standards of this chapter, including all applicable provisions of Articles 12, 13, and 14, and with all other applicable regulations;

3)                  That the use or development is located, designed, and proposed to be operated so as to maintain or enhance the value of contiguous property, or that the use or development is a public necessity; and

4)                  That the use or development conforms with the general plans for the physical development of the Town as embodied in this chapter and in the Comprehensive Plan.

The January 19 Public Hearing memorandum discussed the four findings as related to this application, including both supporting and opposing evidence for each finding.  We have provided the Public Hearing materials as an attachment to this memorandum.

If, after consideration of the evidence presented at the January 19 Public Hearing, the February 28 continuation of Public Hearing and additional evidence submitted this evening, the Council decides that it can make the required four findings, the Ordinance directs that the Special Use Permit shall then be approved.  If the Council decides that sufficient evidence has not been provided to make these findings, then the application must be accordingly denied. 

Although the primary purpose of tonight’s meeting is to receive the applicant response to the question raised during the February 28 Public Hearing, we note that further evidence may be submitted this evening.

KEY ISSUE

The key issue brought forth during the February 28 Public Hearing was related to affordable housing.  A Council member asked the applicant to consider providing 20 units at a sales price of between $130,000 and $140,000 (20 units representing approximately 20 percent of the increased density that would result from the requested rezoning).   A letter from the applicant, addressing issue raised, is attached on page 19.  The applicant’s response is summarized below:

1.      The applicant offers 20 percent of the units of increased density (over the current zoning classification) to be reserved for “affordable housing.”  The applicant offers to identify and reserve 18 two-bedroom homes for sale, subject to restrictions identified below.

2.      The applicant agrees to offer these 18 units initially at a price of $142,500, with a cap on further increases in the sales price(s), by a factor not to exceed any increase in the Consumer Price Index (Base Year 2000).

3.      The applicant offers to sell any number (or all) of the 18 units to the Town of Chapel Hill or the Orange Community Housing Corporation at the sales prices noted above less the marketing sales commission of five percent, or $136,325.  The applicant indicates that the Town or Orange Community Housing Corporation could then monitor and/or control the access and future affordability of these units. 

4.      The applicant offers to continue to negotiate for the most attractive financing package available for the 18 units.

Staff Comment:  These proposals by the applicant could be incorporated as conditions of approval in a resolution of approval:

That at least 18 of the two bedroom dwelling units shall be offered at an initial sales price not to exceed $142,500, with a cap on further increases in the sales price(s), by a factor not to exceed any increase in the Consumer Price Index (Base Year 2000). 

That these 18 dwelling units shall be offered for sale to the Town of Chapel Hill or the Orange Community Housing Corporation at the sales prices noted above less the marketing sales commission of five percent, or $136,325 up to the time of issuance of Certificates of Occupancy.

We have included these conditions in Resolution A, the Manager’s recommendation.

Recommendations

Advisory board recommendations are summarized below:

Planning Board Recommendation:  The Planning Board reviewed this application on December 7, 1999 and voted 8-0 to recommend that the Council approve the application with adoption of Resolution B. 

Transportation Board Recommendation:  The Transportation Board reviewed this application on December 7, 1999 and voted 5-1 to recommend that the Council approve the application with adoption of Resolution C. 

Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Board Recommendation:  The Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Board reviewed this application on December 14, 1999 and voted 6-1 to recommend that the Council approve the application with adoption of Resolution D. 

Community Design Commission Recommendation:  The Community Design Commission reviewed this application on December 15, 1999 and voted 10-0 to recommend that the Council approve the application with adoption of Resolution E. 

Parks and Recreation Commission Recommendation:  The Parks and Recreation Commission reviewed this application on December 8, 1999 and voted 8-0 to recommend that the Council approve the application with adoption of Resolution A.

Manager’s Revised Recommendation:  Based on the information in the record to date, we believe the Council could make the findings required to approve the permit if the site is rezoned to Residential-5-Conditional.  

We recommend that the Council adopt Resolution A, approving the application with conditions.  We note that we have added to Resolution A the conditions regarding the sales price of  18 of the dwelling units, as proposed by the applicant.

Resolution B would approve the application with the Planning Board’s recommended conditions.

Resolution C would approve the application with the Transportation Board’s recommended conditions.

Resolution D would approve the application with the Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Board’s recommended conditions.

Resolution E would approve the application with the Community Design Commission’s recommended conditions.
