Body
Issue/Request:
This preliminary development plan is for Kessler View, a mixed use development generally located at the intersection of SW Kessler Drive and SW Fascination Drive. The plan is composed of a total of ten (10) lots and two (2) tracts. Seven (7) of the lots and one (1) tract are presently platted and are part of the New Longview Commercial District and Fascination at New Longview Plats. The remaining three (3) lots and one (1) tract will be platted at a future date. The total acreage of this development is approximately 12.88 acres.
The project covers three (3) general areas. One area consists of unplatted land proposed as three (3) lots and one (1) tract located on the east side of SW Kessler Dr., south of the existing Autumn Leaves Memory Care Facility and west of the Bridlewood single family subdivision. This area is approximately 5.79 acres and proposes a 10,000 sq. ft. daycare center. Also proposed in this area is the westerly extension of SW Curry Dr., providing a planned connection to the Bridlewood subdivision.
The second area is encompassed by SW Longview Blvd. to the west, SW Fascination Dr. to the north and SW Kessler Dr. to the south and east, and is located on platted lots within the New Longview Commercial District surrounding the existing B&B Theater. Proposed uses for this area include office, retail and restaurant ranging between 1-3 story buildings. Also proposed just west of the B&B theater is a flexible-use space that features an outdoor entertainment venue.
The third area is located on the north side of SW Fascination Drive on platted lots within the Fascination at New Longview plat, located south of the existing CVS store, gas station, and McDonalds. Retail and office uses within 1-2 story buildings are proposed in this area.
In summary, the overall uses for the project include office, retail, a restaurant, a flexible event space, and a daycare. The commercial buildings range from one (1) to three (3) stories and total approximately 165,163 square feet. The daycare is a 1-story building and is approximately 10,000 sq. ft.
The applicant proposes a material palette for the building exteriors that includes: brick, stucco, limestone, limestone panels, glass store fronts, aluminum window systems, metal panels, E.I.F.S, masonry, and painted concrete.
The parking needs for the office, retail, and restaurant portions are supported by the “shared parking model” that has been accepted for the “New Urbanism” concept in the New Longview area. However, as each lot develops, the parking needs will be evaluated at the final development plan stage for each site, and will be required to be in compliance with the shared parking model and/or the required need for parking for the use.
The area consisting of the daycare is not included within the shared parking model. These sites are designed to meet the onsite parking requirements of the UDO.
• 165,163 sq. ft. sq. ft. of commercial space
• 11.5 dwelling units/acre
• 1352 spaces required; 1094 parking spaces provided through the shared parking model
