THE CITY COUNCIL RECEIVED AND REVIEWED THE FOLLOWING STAFF ANALYSIS
PROVIDED WITHIN THE STAFF REPORT AND ADOPTS THE STAFF REPORT AS PART OF
THE CITY COUNCIL'S FINDINGS OF FACT:
A. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN PROVISIONS WHICH ARE OF SPECIAL CONCERN REGARDING
THIS PROPOSAL:
The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map (adopted November 15, 2017), designates this site as the
following:
Village/Community Center
Village and Community Centers are intended to serve as mixed use centers for goods, services and
employment for areas that are removed from downtown Eagle. Uses and residential densities vary
based on location. See the planning area text for a complete description of site specific uses.
Compact Residential
Suitable for single family residential, row houses, duplex and four-plexes. Densities range from 4
units per acre to 8 units per acre.
Large Lot Residential
Suitable for single family residential adjacent to Estate Residential uses. Densities range from 1 unit
per acre to 1 unit per 2 acres. Infrastructure such as sewer and water are required for densities higher
than 1 unit per 2 acres. Open space and parks in this area will be generally limited. Land uses in this
category will tend to appear as suburban large lot and generally less agrarian than the Estate Residential
and Agricultural/Rural designations.
Scenic Corridor
An Overlay designation that is intended to provide significant setbacks from major corridors and natural
features through the city. These areas may require berming, enhanced landscaping, detached
meandering pathways and appropriate signage controls.
B. DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT PROVISIONS WHICH ARE OF SPECIAL CONCERN
REGARDING THIS PROPOSAL:
3.1 The maximum density for the Property shall be 2.09 dwelling units per acre (392-single-family
lots, 192-multi-family or single-family attached dwellings).

mixed -uses of residential and commercial development. Non-residential use will be focused
within the Village Center. Residential and non-residential development shall emphasize
pedestrian -friendly development.
3.7.2.1 Residential development shall consist of single-family homes and up to a maximum of
12-acres located within the Multi Use Area may consist of multi -family and/or single-
family attached dwellings. Multi -family and/or single-family attached dwellings do not
count against the 240,000 SF limit in Section 3.7.3 below.
3.9 Any multi -family or single-family attached dwellings shall be architecturally designed to comply
with Eagle City Code Section 8-2A and shall receive approval from the Eagle Design Review

Design (EASD) Book. Eagle Design Review Board and Eagle City Council approval of the

procedures of the ACC shall be included in the CC&Rs and shall be reviewed and reasonably
approved by the Eagle city attorney prior to the approval of the first final plat.
The submittal of the building permit application to Eagle for each building within the
development shall be accompanied by an approval letter from the ACC, building permit
applications that do not have an approval letter attached will not be accepted.
