Proposed Major Amendment, Final Development Plan, and Major Subdivision to PD #101 - Santa Maria Community Services at 1048 Considine Ave in East Price Hill
Background
Local non-profit Santa Maria Community Services is constructing a new facility at 1048 Considine Avenue to consolidate their existing scattered-site programs, services, and administrative functions into one location. The project will include a second building, constructed at a later phase, that will become a Community Action Agency (CAA) Head Start serving approximately 200 students. Both buildings will be two stories, and the site plan includes surface parking spaces, landscaping, walking trails, and the possibility of a raised garden bed and playground.
The site was rezoned to a Planned Development District (PD-101) on February 28, 2024, including a Concept Plan and Development Program Statement approved by City Council. The site is currently vacant.
Request
The applicant is requesting three items for approval by the City Planning Commission: a Major Amendment to the Concept Plan and Development Program Statement, a Final Development Plan, and a Major Subdivision.
The request for a Major Amendment is due to the fact that the building locations as shown in the latest iteration of the site plan have shifted closer to the property lines compared to the approved Concept Plan. The Major Amendment will require City Council approval.
The Final Development Plan is the second step in all Planned Development projects, and finalizes the ideas included in the Concept Plan in more detail. The is required before building permits can be issued, and does not require City Council approval.
The request for a Major Subdivision comes as a way to facilitate the construction of the CAA Head Start building on the site. CAA will need to own the land their facility is located upon, so part of the parcel will be split off and sold to CAA. This request is considered a Major Subdivision because a portion of the property is located within the Hillside Overlay District. This does not require City Council approval.
