BOOTH MAYOR EXHIBIT A Comprehensive Plan Amendment Lakeland Hills South Special Planning Area: The Lakeland Hills South Plan will cover the approximately 685 acres owned by The Lakeland Company within Pierce County and contained within the City of Auburn potential annexation area (urban growth area). The Plan must be consistent with the conditions of approval of the Lakeland Hills South PDD (Pierce County Hearings Examiner Case No. Z15-90FtJP9-70) as amended. Residential development will be primarily d~tae, lq~t-single family and moderate density dwellings with a wide range of lot sizes, including lots smaller than those currently allowed (1995) by the zoning ordinance. The maximum allowable number of residential units is 3408 based upon an overall gross density of 5 units per acre. Mmk4~High density multifamily units will be limited to approximately 259 $69 units. Twenty acres will be used for light commercial development and significant area will be set aside ~atiot~-mmt-a._~s open space. The development will include a developed 15-acre park, a~ _undeveloped 15-acre park, two 5-acre parks and a linear park along Lakeland Jlills ~'ay. The locations of the oarks are shown on the comprehensive plan map. Changin~ location of any or all of the parks does not constitute a comprehensive plan amendment provided that the total park acreage does not change and the location is*agreed upon by the City. Within the Lakeland Hills South Special Plan area only, the permitted density ranges for the comorehensive plan designations are as follows: Single Family _Residential: 1-6 units per acre; Moderate Density Residential: 2-14 units per acre; and High Density Residential: 12-19 units per acre. The development will occur in phases in coordination with the provision of required urban services. Some of the unique aspects of this development are inconsistent with the City's conventional zoning districts. In order to implement and efficiently process development within the Lakeland Special Plan Area, it may be necessary to adopt a planned unit development ordinance.
