The City of Lafayette has received applications from Boulder County Housing Authority, for a PUD Amendment and corresponding Sketch Plan to propose revisions to their currently approved plans. The project site is located at the southwest intersection of E. Emma Street and N 120th Street.
Project Overview
Project Details
Applicant: Boulder County Housing Authority (BCHA)
Location: Southwest corner of E. Emma and N. 120th St.
Applications: PUD Amendment and Sketch Plan
The project timeline on the right side of this page provides an overview of the steps in the development process.
PUD Amendment
The PUD amendment proposes to change the current PUD in the following ways:
1. In Planning Area A (PA-A), 30 previously approved duplexes are proposed to be replaced with 33 detached single-family homes.
2. In Planning Area B (PA-B), 128 approved townhomes are proposed to be replaced with 40 detached single-family homes and two apartment buildings containing a total of 104 units combined.
3. In Planning Area C (PA-C), no changes are being proposed.
4. In Planning Area D (PA-D), 54 multi-family (apartment) units are currently approved. The Applicant is proposing to reduce that unit count to 50. Existing development in PA-D already includes 18 apartments, so there will be 32 more apartment units to develop based on this proposal.
Comparatively, the total number of units across the project site is proposed to increase by one (1) unit, from 400 to 401, between all planning areas.
Sketch Plan
A Sketch Plan application was submitted in conjunction with the PUD Amendment. The Sketch Plan reflects the amendments being proposed in the PUD in a site plan format, including the general layout of the single and multi-family buildings. The purpose of the Sketch Plan is to illustrate how the project will be oriented on the site, how the circulation network will function, how utilities and drainage will be accommodated, intended development phasing, common area landscaping concepts, and typical designs for streets and lot single-family lots.
