DRC# 8-2023 – Horizons at Sand Point Development Site Plan
Mr. Ford read the staff report.
The applicant is requesting the Development Review Committee (DRC) to grant the following revisions:
Proposed revisions to the approved development plans that were determined to conform to the
Urban Design Manual, Comprehensive Plan, and Land Development Code include the following:
1. Hotel site at the former Sand Point Office Center property – The proposed hotel will be
developed in Phase 2 of the development. The hotel development will be required to
received CRA architectural design review approval at the time of development. Access to
the hotel site appears to be improved from the original layout when the property was in
different ownership.
2. Parking garage – The proposed parking garage has increased in height to six (6) levels from
the original two (2) level structure and has reduced in length so that the building will be
shielded entirely behind the eight (8) story apartment building. The original two (2) level
garage extended north and south of the apartment building. The six (6) level garage
building will still be lower in height than the apartment building. The six (6) level garage
takes up less floor area than the two (2) level garage.
3. Stormwater retention area – The revised plans show additional stormwater retention areas
as part of the Phase 1 development whereas the original layout indicated that stormwater
retention would be constructed with the development phases. Installing the additional
stormwater retention areas in Phase 1 provides common stormwater facilities upfront for
future development.
4. Driveway access to the south – The revised plan eliminates access to Lemon Avenue which
helps to protect existing single family homes on Lemon Avenue from direct traffic access
to and from the development. The access to Palm Avenue is proposed to have direct access
to the Phase 4 commercial site and not to the Phase 1 site. The other access drives to US-
1 remain unchanged.
