Berkley Crossings PD
Description
A planned development for 170 single-family and townhome units with narrower lots and reduced setbacks. After July's critiques, the applicant widened buffers to 20 feet, bumped side setbacks to five feet, and added 30 extra parking spaces.
Impact summary
First-of-its-kind density for the Auburndale area; expect a revised site plan — possibly with 5-foot setbacks or zero-lot-line design — in August.
