Approval of a Preliminary Plat for Remington Pointe Phase 2
Melissa DeBoer, Planning Coordinator, introduced the request for approval of a preliminary plat for a
subdivision that includes single-family residential, townhome residential, and commercial
development, as requested by Landmark Development Services, represented by Erin Ollendike of
Civil Design Advantage.
The property is generally located south of University Avenue and west of 17th Street, containing
approximately 38.70-acres.
The property was annexed into the City of Waukee in early 2022. The property was originally rezoned
in the fall of 2022. The property recently went through another rezoning to revise the R-2 and R-2/PD-
1 boundaries. The recent rezoning allows for an additional 6 single-family lots for the overall
Remington Pointe Development.
The preliminary plat identifies a total of 88 lots for single-family residential development. A total of
42 lots are shown within the area proposed to be zoned R-2. All proposed lots within the R-2 district
comply with the standard R-2 district requirements. The remaining 46 lots are proposed to be smaller
single-family lots that are subject to requirements of the Planned Development. The preliminary plat
identifies an outlot (Outlot ‘S’) for future townhome development and six outlots for future
commercial development, along University Avenue (Outlots ‘T’, U’, V’, W’, ‘X’, and ‘Y’).
The preliminary plat identifies one outlot (Outlot ‘Z’) for stormwater detention. This outlot will be
owned and maintained by a homeowner’s association. Several landscape buffers will be provided
between the different zoning districts and along University Avenue.
All proposed lots within the Planned Development Overlay area meet or exceed the minimums for lot
width, area, and depth. In addition to the relaxed bulk regulations, the Planned Development
Agreement requires the following provisions for these lots when developed: minimum two car garage,
minimum of 1,100 square feet for a single story home and 1,400 square feet for a two story home;
adjacent lots cannot share the same building elevation, minimum of 25% stone, brick or stucco on the
front of the home facing the public street, specific requirements for the use of vinyl siding (Royal
Crest Double 4-inch or acceptable equivalent) and two (2) trees and two (2) shrubs planted on each lot
at the time of individual development.
Several public streets will be provided as part of this development. Extensions of Werthman Drive and
Bloomfield Drive will be included as part of plat improvements. In addition, a new public street,
Countryside Way, will be included as part of plat improvements. A portion of the private street that
will eventually provide access to the future townhome lots and the back of the future commercial lots
will be extended as part of plat improvements. A ten-foot-wide trail will be installed along the south
side of Werthman Drive with individual lot development. Five-foot wide sidewalks will be provided
along all other sides of all streets with individual lot development.
Public utilities will be provided for this development. Private utilities will serve the townhome
development. Stormwater detention will be provided within Outlot ‘Z’ and detention basins located
within the previous phases of the Remington Pointe Development. These will all be owned and
maintained by a homeowner’s association. All proposed easements have been indicated on the
preliminary plat. Landscape buffer easements have been indicated between the different zoning
districts and along University Avenue.
Parkland dedication requirements will apply to the project because of its residential nature. The
required amount of parkland for the overall Remington Pointe Development is 6.75-acres. The
applicant plans to provide this with a fee in lieu of land dedication.
The subject property is classified as Single Family Residential and Medium Density Residential in the
Imagine Waukee 2040: Comprehensive Plan. Single Family Residential is defined as traditional forms
of single-family housing with lot sizes ranging from 8,000 square feet to 0.50-acres in area with an
average density of 2 to 4 units per acre. Medium Density Residential is defined as attached side-by-
side townhome and row home products with densities ranging from 4 to 12 units per acre. The
proposed density of the single-family portion of the overall Remington Pointe development would be
approximately 3.3 units per acre. The proposed density is consistent with the ranges identified in the
Comprehensive Plan.
All proposed lots meet the minimum requirements of the Zoning Ordinance and Planned
Development, the preliminary plat is in general conformance with the Subdivision Ordinance, and the
proposed land use of the property is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Staff recommends
approval of the preliminary plat for Remington Pointe Phase 2 subject to remaining staff comments.
Discussion as follows:
• General discussion of townhomes and their location within the development
• Confirmation of retention pond location
• General discussion of future plans for the private drive that will be extended for future
townhome development as well as providing access to future commercial areas
