Some questions asked by the Commission included why the whole 4003 acres did not come to them as a PD; the amount of open space within the development; and the length of some of the streets. Some concerns expressed by the Commission included the imbalance of R-5 homes in relation to R-2 or R-3 homes; the number of garden homes and townhouses; and the shopping center being located across the street from the elementary school. Mr. Bass told the Commission that if the development started that it would begin with several different types of housing products and that the proposed development would take approximately 5 to 7 years to complete.

ALLEN PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MAY 12, 1983 PAGE 7 Workshop Session on a Proposed Development of 400± Acre Tract by Don Bass (Cont.) The Commission discussed whether the patio homes should be included in the total percentage of single family dwellings when comparing this development to the Comprehensive Plan. They also discussed the housing mix in relation to what they would consider a good ratio for development; possibly making the 2-F zoning districts into TH to encourage single ownership; whether more than 200 homes of a given type is too much in a zoning district; providing some open space in the higher density areas, i.e., in the multi -family and 2-F districts; and what should be included in the Planned Development.

There was no action taken on this item.
