CITY OF WAUKEE, IOWA
CITY COUNCIL MEETING COMMUNICATION
MEETING DATE: March 15, 2021
AGENDA ITEM: Public hearing on an ordinance to amend Chapter 169, Zoning
Ordinance, City of Waukee, Iowa, by rezoning certain property from A-1
Agricultural District and COS Conservation & Open Space District to R-
2 One & Two Family Residential District, R-2 One & Two Family
Residential District / PD-1 Planned Development Overlay District, and
R-2 Multi-Family Residential District [Prairie Rose Phase II]
FORMAT: Public Hearing
SYNOPSIS INCLUDING PRO & CON: Staff has received a request for rezoning of
approximately 101.46 acres of property from A-1 and COS to R-2, R-
2/PD-1, and R-3. The property is located approximately one-half mile
north of Hickman Road and west of N. Warrior Lane.
The applicant received greater than 50% consent from property owners
within 250-feet of each area proposed to be rezoned. A rezoning sign
was placed on the property and notices were mailed to adjoining property
owners. Staff has not received any formal correspondence regarding the
request, however, a number of neighboring property owners expressed
concerns regarding the proposed rezoning at the Planning & Zoning
Commission hearing on March 9, 2021. The minutes from the Planning
& Zoning Commission meeting are provided below.
The concept plan provided shows 211 single-family lots to be developed.
A total of 143 lots are shown within the area proposed to be zoned R-2.
The remaining 68 lots are proposed to be smaller lots that are subject to
requirements of the Planned Development. For the lots within the
Planned Development area, the applicant has proposed lots with a
minimum lot size of 6,000 square feet, 55-feet lot widths, and 10-foot
side yard setbacks. As part of the Planned Development, the applicant
has agreed to a number of provisions for these lots including;
architectural, landscaping, and square footage requirements. Area C
shown on the concept plan is 9.92 acres in area and is proposed to be
zoned R-3. No specific layout for Area C is shown at this time.
Landscape buffers will be required along the north and south sides of
NW Douglas Parkway and along all sides of Area C.
A number of public street extensions would occur as part of this
development. NW Douglas Parkway is shown to be extended across the
drainageway to the west plat boundary to connect with the portion of
NW Douglas Parkway that the City is constructing. A 10-foot trail will
be required on the north side of NW Douglas Parkway. A connection to
G1
the existing street, NW Walnut Lane, in Sahu Acres is shown. This
connection will provide another means of access into the Sahu Acres
neighborhood. The connection is desired to provide better emergency
response access and traffic circulation. All other streets shown would be
considered local streets.
Parkland dedication requirements will apply to the project because of its
residential nature. The required amount of parkland is 9.20-acres. The
concept plan identifies the dedication of 20.02-acres to the City for
greenway preservation and parkland dedication.
The subject property is classified as Single Family 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. The proposed density of the single-family
portion of project would be approximately 2.4 units per acre.
The area proposed to be zoned R-3 allows for a maximum density of 18
units per acres, which exceeds the guideline of the Comprehensive Plan
for the single-family classification. However, the location of the area
proposed to be zoned R-3 is suitable for the proposed land use as it is
located at the intersection of two major streets (NW 2nd Street and NW
Douglas Parkway) and will provide additional housing options within the
overall Prairie Rose neighborhood.
The area within the project identified as Open Space in the
Comprehensive Plan is the area generally surrounding the creek and the
floodplain. These areas are proposed to be dedicated to the City for
parkland dedication requirements.
FISCAL IMPACT INCLUDING COST/BENEFIT ANALYSIS:
COMMISSION/BOARD/COMMITTEE COMMENT: The Planning and Zoning
Commission reviewed the rezoning request on March 9, 2021 and
recommended approval:
Approval of a Rezoning related to a change from A-1 (Agricultural District) and COS
(Conservation and Open Space District) to R-2 (One & Two Family Residential District)
and R-2 (One & Two Family Residential District)/ PD-1 (Planned Development Overlay),
and R-3 (Multi-Family Residential District) [Prairie Rose Phase II]
Senior City Planner, Andy Kass, introduced the request for approval of a rezoning for a
residential and multifamily subdivision as presented by the applicant, Landmark Development,
LLC. The subject property is generally located north of Hickman Road and west of N. Warrior
Lane, containing approximately 101.46 acres. Notice of the rezoning was sent out February 26,
2021. Consent for the R-2 zoning change was received by 60.39% of surrounding property
owners within 250 feet. Consent for the R-2/PD-1 zoning change was received by 57.61% of
surrounding property owners within 250 feet. Consent for the R-3 zoning change was received by
72.71% of surrounding property owners within 250 feet. At the time of the staff report, no
correspondence had been submitted to staff for or against the rezoning.
Mr. Kass advised that the concept plan provided by the applicant identified a total of 211 single
family lots. 143 of those lots fall under the general R-2 bulk regulations, and the remaining 68
lots are effected by the proposed planned development document that would allow for lots at a
minimum to be 55 feet in width, 6,000 square feet in lot area, and with 10 foot total side yard
setbacks. At this time there is no area lay out for the R-3 area and additional site plan approval
will be required in the future prior to development. Landscape buffer easements are proposed
around the R-3 property, and along NW Douglas Parkway.
Mr. Kass explained that there is a connection into the northern Sahu Acres which was preferred
out of the connection options available at the time that the northern Ashley Acres property was
under rezoning. The density is approximately 2.4 units per acre which is in line with the
Comprehensive Plan of the City, and provides further connectivity and varying housing options in
the area. Staff would recommend approval of the rezoning.
Commission Comments
Commissioner Hoifeldt questioned if the current connection point in to Sahu Acres was a
City designed road or if it would require future construction needs. Mr. Kass advised that
Staff does not anticipate a lot of thru-traffic to the north given that the project includes
the extension of NE Douglas Parkway all the way to the current ending point on the
School Site.
Audience Comments
Janet Blazinin of 600 NW Little Walnut Creek Drive questioned if the lots along the
north which are indicated as 10,000 square feet in size or larger would run the risk of
becoming small lots as this is a concept plan. Mr. Kass advised that Staff does not
typically see a lot of deviation between what comes to be platted from what was seen on
the concept plan. Staff would have concerns with noticeable deviations.
Ms. Blazinin also questioned if there is an option for a landscape buffer easement along
the north boundary between the R-2 lots and the existing acreages. Mr. Kass advised that
the developer could choose to place a buffer there, however staff does not have the ability
to require it due to the lack of buffering between similar residential land uses within the
City Ordinance.
Ms. Blazinin also questioned why the connection into Sahu acres was required. Mr. Kass
advised that secondary access is required for developments for emergency access and
safety. While Sahu Acres has existed for some time without the second connection, Fire
and emergency services has expressed a need for the secondary access at this time.
Teresa Shaw of 620 NW Little Walnut Creek Drive advised she was concerned about the
landscape buffer as well. Her drive way runs parallel to the north property line of the
development which presents a safety concern of children running into the way of
vehicles. There is currently a fence but it may not be on her property and is subject to
removal. Ms. Shaw also posed a concern that the current road is not suitable for large
trucks or higher traffic. Mr. Kass advised that the fence removal depends on the property
it is on. That the need for landscape buffering due to proximity to the drive is something
to be aware of for preliminary platting purposes, and that public connections are a
possibility in the future. Erin Ollendike, a representative for the applicant, advised that
the fence is on the Prairie Rose property and is anticipated to be removed.
Mitch Pinkerton of 640 NW Little Walnut Creek Drive seconded comments made by Ms.
Blazinin. Mr. Pinkerton advised that he has a private pond in the back on his property and
is concerned that the new development would wonder on to his property if some sort of
buffer was not present. Mr. Pinkerton also questioned what the driving force was for the
secondary access as other developments such as Indian Ridge and Spyglass areas do not
have one. He stated that he understands development, but does not want to be punished
for living in the area first. Mr. Kass advised that the landscape buffer issue is once again
something that staff cannot require it will be up to the developer. Mr. Kass also
responded that secondary access often do not happen right off the bat for developments.
It does require time just like with Sahu acres, the areas in question do have anticipated
secondary accesses dependent on future development.
Tom O’Brien of 680 NW Little Walnut Creek Drive expressed concern for the current
entrance into the development off of N. Warrior Lane. Currently it poses risks with a
large hill, blind corner at the intersection, and still no curb and gutter. Mr. O’Brien
advised that he was for development, but that Staff should anticipate more traffic in the
area. Mr. Kass responded, stating that the cities of Waukee and Clive are working on a
project concerning N. Warrior Lane from NW Meredith Street to NE Badger Lane slated
for later this year.
Kari Ramsey of 626 NW Little Walnut Creek Drive advised that she was excited for the
new connection to the south but expressed concerns about the existing road. A project
that would Asphalt N. Warrior Lane is not going to solve the dangers of the intersection.
She suggested that the City do a traffic study in the area prior to the road work.
Ms. Ramsey also questioned if there were future plans for a trail system. Mr. Kass
advised that there is the intent to provide a trail system through the parkland dedication
provided in the Prairie Rose Plat 2 development that would one day create a connection
with the Clive Greenbelt Trail future extension. Preliminary design work for the trail
extension is underway.
Ms. Ramsey also questioned why the zoning designation was R-2 against the acreages
instead of a lower density such as R-1. Erin Ollendike advised that the largest lots do
buffer the higher density from the lower density acreages. Mr. Kass advised that he had
run an analysis and of the 143 R-2 zoned lots, 105 meet the standard of the R-1 zoning
district for standard lot area, including the lots that border Sahu Acres.
Ms. Ramsey clarified if the lots have an intention to be used for townhome or duplex
development. Mr. Kass advised that only detached single family product is expressed for
this development, except the R-3 zoning portion to the southwest.
Tom O’Brien questioned if the work on N Warrior lane would be an overlay and if
further work would be anticipated at a later date that is bonded with developers coming
in. Mr. O’Brien also questioned where the exit for current residents would be during the
road project. Mr. Kass advised that the bonding for future road improvements was
currently being required of developments along N. Warrior Lane. In regards to the
specifics of the project, Mr. Kass advised that the City of Clive was designing the project,
and had not released the plans to Waukee City Staff at this time. However, he would
distribute further information when available to Mr. O’Brien and residents.
Commissioner Koshy made a final comment to residents that the concerns regarding
traffic and the need for a landscape buffer would be good items to bring forward to the
City Council review of the Rezoning as well.
Commissioner Broderick asked a final clarifying question regarding the anticipated
grading for the lots that border Sahu Acres. Erin Ollendike addressed the question
indicating that the grades anticipate drainage swales and would sit lower than the existing
driveway.
Commissioner Hoifeldt moved to approve the rezoning related to a change from A-1
(Agricultural District) and COS (Conservation and Open Space District) to R-2 (One & Two
Family Residential District) and R-2 (One & Two Family Residential District)/ PD-1 (Planned
Development Overlay), and R-3 (Multi-Family Residential District) [Prairie Rose Phase II]. The
motion was seconded by commissioner Inman. Ayes: Streit, Koshy, Inman, Broderick, and
Hoifeldt. Nays: None. Motion Carries.
STAFF REVIEW AND COMMENT: Several concerns were raised by the neighboring
property owners at the Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting related to the connection of
NW Walnut Lane into Sahu Acres as well as concerns related to the existing intersection of Little
Walnut Creek Drive and Warrior Lane. Staff believes the connection of NW Walnut Lane is an
important connection for the Sahu Acres development as defined below:
The connection provides an alternative access for residents of Sahu Acres who have
expressed concerns with safety while trying to exit Sahu Acres onto Warrior Lane.
There are several improvements that will be necessary to Warrior Lane in the next ten
years, which will have an impact on the accessibility of Sahu Acres to/from Warrior Lane
including a culvert/bridge replacement for the creek crossing and the eventual paving and
widening of Warrior Lane to Meredith Drive.
There is a possibility that the connection of NW Walnut Lane will increase traffic along
Walnut Creek Drive, however, staff believes the additional traffic will be minimal. With
the new high school opening in the fall, there are multiple routes for coming to and from
the school including Meredith Drive, Douglas Parkway and Hickman Road.
Additionally, the City of Waukee will be making the remaining Douglas Parkway
connection east of Warrior Lane in 2022.
Staff believes that there are other measures that can be taken along Little Walnut Creek
Drive in the future if additional traffic were to become a safety issue up to and including
the permanent closure of Little Walnut Creek Drive to Warrior Lane.
Staff would recommend approval of the proposed rezoning request.
RECOMMENDATION: Hold the Public Hearing.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
The subject property is classified as Single Family 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. The proposed density of the single family portion of project would
be approximately 2.4 units per acre.
The area proposed to be zoned R-3 allows for a maximum density of 18 units per acres, which exceeds the guideline of the
Comprehensive Plan for the single family classification, however, the location of the property area to be zoned R-3 is suitable
for the proposed land use as it is located at the intersection of two major streets (NW 2nd Street and NW Douglas
Parkway) and will provide additional housing options within the overall Prairie Rose neighborhood.
The area identified as Open Space is the area generally surrounding the creek and the floodplain. These are the areas that
will be dedicated to the City for parkland dedication requirements.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The proposed zoning district is generally consistent with the land uses identified in the Comprehensive Plan. Based on
the conformance with the Comprehensive Plan staff recommends approval of the rezoning for Prairie Rose Phase II.
