Parking Requirements: Recently-appointed District 9 Commissioner Wes Hoblit asked about the parking needs for this type of development. Ray Oujesky of Kelly Hart clarified that it’s not going to be a true senior living “to be very frank...this is really going to be a standard multifamily" So the proposed parking ratio would be necessary.

Open Space Waiver: The applicant requested an open space waiver since the site currently only has 17.5% open space. They noted the proximity to the Trinity Trails, stating "there's a lot of open space going just outside the boundaries of the property here." Commissioner Hoblit observed that even with the additional acreage from the trails, "it is still short" of the 25% requirement. The applicant acknowledged that was a "proper observation."

Building Height/Waiver: The applicant showed a rendering of a potential 4-story building, noting they requested a waiver to allow 4 stories within 250 feet of the closest residential neighborhood. They said they weren't confident the building would exceed 250 feet, "but if the waiver is needed to go to 4 stories within that 250 feet, this is an elevation of how that would look."
