(F) Monthly Mayor’s Report – Mayor Clarke noted that Aug. 3 is Public Safety Day, then reviewed
other August events such as Movies in the Park and the Rotary Club of Waukee “Waukee
Palooza” event. She added that Des Moines Water Works has lifted their Stage 1 watering
restrictions, but asked residents and businesses to continue following the Wise Water Use plan.
(G) Presentations: None
(H) Public Hearings:
1) On an ordinance to amend Chapter 169, Zoning Ordinance, City of Waukee, Iowa, by
rezoning certain property from A-1 to R-2, a property to be known as Fox Valley Phase
2 – Mayor Clarke opened the public hearing and asked if any written correspondence had
been received; City Clerk Schuett replied that none had been received in the clerk’s office.
Planning Coordinator Kass briefly reviewed the application, stating that the applicant
received 68%consent from neighboring property owners. The subject property was left out
of the initial Fox Valley rezoning request as a possible elementary school location; however,
the site was not ultimately selected for that use. Mr. Kass reviewed the public street
extensions and parkland dedication area. No comments were made by the public in
attendance.
2) On an ordinance to amend Chapter 169, Zoning Ordinance, City of Waukee, Iowa, by
rezoning certain property from K-OF to R-4/PD-1, a property to be known as Vintage
Estates of Waukee – Mayor Clarke opened the public hearing and asked if any written
correspondence had been received; City Clerk Schuett replied that none had been received
in the clerk’s office. Planning Coordinator Kass briefly reviewed the application for detached,
owner-occupied units marketed for ages 55 or older. The applicant received 56% consent
from neighboring property owners. A clubhouse is identified within the development, as well
as private interior streets. Landscape buffers are required along all sides of the
development. The proposed PD-1 zoning would allow for reduced setbacks between units in
exchange for specific architectural elements, additional landscaping and certain minimum
square footages. Mr. Kass noted that while the proposal was consistent with the Kettlestone
master development plan, it is considered “down-zoning” from the originally-planned office
use. The commercial development directly to the east of the subject property includes a
residential component, with the proposed rezoning offering additional housing diversity in the
area. Mr. Kass then reviewed exterior building elevation concepts. Council Member Crone
asked if there were many villa-style developments in Waukee; Mr. Kass replied that there
I1B
2
were not many, but cited Brookridge and the future Courtyards at Parkside as similar
developments. Mayor Clarke asked if there were any safety concerns associated with
reduced building setbacks; Assistant City Administrator Deets replied in the negative, noting
that the 12-foot setback was an industry standard for this type of development but that
several developments in the city have been approved with smaller 10-foot setbacks. Council
Member Sinclair asked why a fee in lieu of parkland dedication was proposed for this
development; Mr. Kass replied that the applicant had proposed the fee and that the size of
the property would create a very small area of parkland. He noted that the development was
proposed to include private recreational amenities. No comments were made by the public
in attendance.
3) On an ordinance to amend Chapter 169, Zoning Ordinance, City of Waukee, Iowa, by
rezoning certain property from K-RC to K-RR/PD-1, a property known as KeeTown
Loop – Mayor Clarke opened the public hearing and asked if any written correspondence
had been received; City Clerk Schuett replied that none had been received in the clerk’s
office. Assistant City Administrator Deets briefly reviewed the application, which is
necessary due to the unique nature of the project. The PD-1 rezoning is proposed to
address building height as well as bulk regulations and uses that are tailored specifically to
this development. Some special provisions within the PD-1 zoning relate to the proposed
entertainment venue and related signage. Mr. Deets noted that there have been questions
about potential noise generated on the property, but clarified that an entirely indoor
entertainment venue is proposed. He then discussed various street improvements being
made by the City in the general vicinity of the subject property, and shared entertainment
venue exterior elevation concepts. No comments were made by the public in attendance.
