Body
Summary and Background Information:
The Buckley Crossing PUD was approved in 2003, allowing mixed use commercial, public, and residential uses including single-family detached, single-family attached, town homes, and multi-family. The original PUD zone document took the alignment of High Plains Pkwy. into consideration, and sited 24.90 acres for a public school/park southwest of this future extension of Buckley Rd. During a sketch plat application process in 2020, the applicant, Scott Carlson of Carlson Associates, and staff determined that an amendment to the PUD was necessary. The applicant wished to amend the exaggerated curvature for High Plains Pkwy. shown in the original PUD, as well as the planning areas contained within. The 27J school district also requested additional land to be dedicated for a future school.
Additional record materials may be found in the Planning file for Case #Z-761-03-21.
