PROJECT INFORMATION:

Application:  AME2024 0003

History:

The proposed rezone is for 1925 Davis Avenue, to the east of Riveredge Park Condominiums.

In 2003, 1925 Davis and the Riveredge Park Condominiums were on one lot.  The lot was approved for transitional zoning to D15.  “Transitional” means the rezone could happen once certain improvements were made.  In this case, the improvements included pedestrian accommodation construction along Davis Avenue, and a traffic study that showed the Davis Avenue/Glacier Highway intersection would operate effectively after full-build out.

MAP2003 0002

The Developer was unable to meet requirements for the Davis Avenue/Glacier Highway intersection performance.  In 2005, the Developer revised the rezone request from D15 to D10. Less density means less traffic, and reduces impacts on the intersection.  The Planning Commission approved the revision, requiring a pedestrian easement along Lemon Creek, and $25,000 to be applied to neighborhood park construction.

MAP2005 0003

In 2005, the developer got a conditional use permit to develop a driveway in the unused portion of the Davis Avenue right-of-way.  The conditional use permit recognized the driveway would be used for up to 50 units.

USE2005 0017

Development of 21 Riveredge Park Condominiums began in 2005.

In 2013, the lot was subdivided, creating Lot 1A (Riveredge Park Condominiums), and Lot 1B (1925 Davis Avenue). A variance was required to subdivide a lot on a right-of-way that was not publicly maintained.

VAR2012 0031

The plat shows the formally-recorded easements.

Recorded documents include joint maintenance and hold-harmless agreements.

Maintenance and Hold Harmless Agreement for Driveway Within Davis Avenue Right-of-Way

Shared Use and Maintenance Agreement

Mendota Park Subdivision, Parcel 1A and Parcel 1B Sanitary Sewer Line and Private Water System, Joint Maintenance and Hold Harmless Agreement

The Commission also approved 23 apartments on the newly created Lot 1B (1925 Davis Avenue).

USE2013 0015

1925 Davis currently has two apartment buildings, with a total of 23 units.
