Approval of a Final Plat for Painted Woods Spectrum Plat I
Andy Kass, Community Development Director, introduced the request for approval of a final plat for a
commercial development, as requested by Armadura Legal, Inc., represented by Erin Ollendike of
Civil Design Advantage.
The property is generally located north of Interstate 80 and west of 6th Street, containing approximately
4.80 acres. It was originally rezoned in 2006 under the name of Fox Glenn. The property was then
rezoned again in 2014 with the Painted Woods west development to its current zoning classification of
C-IA (Neighborhood Commercial District). The property is currently vacant, undeveloped land.
The final plat identifies one lot and one outlot for future commercial development. Lot 1 is 2.51-acres
in area and Outlot Z is 2.29-acres in area. The proposed lot meets or exceeds the minimum
I6
requirements of the C-1A zoning district. Stormwater detention is shown within a pond located to the
west of the proposed plat.
The public improvements associated with this plat include adding a northbound left-turn lane and
median on 6th Street as well as a southbound deceleration right-turn lane. These public improvements
are currently under construction.
Public utilities will be provided to the property. The stormwater management areas will be owned and
maintained by the developer/property owner. All proposed easements have been indicated on the final
plat. A landscape buffer easement is provided on the east side of Lot 1 to provide a buffer for the
residential development located to the east.
The subject property is classified as Community Commercial in the Imagine Waukee 2040:
Comprehensive Plan. Community Commercial is defined as having two or more anchor tenants which
could include a discount store or supermarket. Community Commercial uses are typically located
along minor and major arterials and would serve a large portion of the community.
The zoning of the property is classified as Neighborhood Commercial District. The Comprehensive
Plan defines Neighborhood Commercial as areas that are intended to serve the surrounding
neighborhoods. These centers may or may not have an anchor tenant, such as a grocery store or
hardware store. Neighborhood Commercial uses are typically located along collectors, or at
intersections of collectors and minor arterials. Neighborhood Commercial should provide day-to-day
goods and services for residents and should be walkable from nearby residential neighborhoods.
The proposed plat is in general conformance with the Subdivision Ordinance and the proposed lot
meets the minimum requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. Staff recommends approval of the final
plat for Painted Woods Spectrum Plat 1 subject to remaining staff comments and review of the legal
documents.
