Exhibit B | WAUKEE CENTRAL MULTI-FAMILY DEVELOPMENT – PLANNED DEVELOPMENT
Waukee, Iowa
Planned Development Overlay District (PD)
Item 1 Purpose and Scope of District
The subject property is located within the Waukee Central Final Plat which
consists of five lots. The four lots fronting Hickman Road are zoned for and are
currently being developed for commercial uses. The fifth lot which is separated
by a private street (SE Laurel Street) is proposed to be developed as a multi-
family residential use.
The proposed multi-family residential use would be required to be designed and
constructed to higher standards than would be required within the standard R-3
Multi-Family Residential District as described within this document. In exchange,
the Planned Development would include language that will relax building
setback requirements and increase the maximum number of units per acre.
The existing zoning of the Property is C-1 Community and Highway Service
Commercial District. The proposed underlying zoning is R-3 Rental Multi-Family
Residential District with the Planned Development Overlay (PD-1) defining the
additional uses, regulations and restrictions.
