February 12, 1979 receiv-t "At its regular monthly meeting on February 6, 1979, the City Planning Commission "S~ctio ed and publicly acted upon a preliminary subdivision application for the area kn6Wn as 7F of the Peachtree Planned Unit Development. After consultation with City Attorney Gordon Tayloe, it was decided that one condition of preliminary subdivision approval would be sub- mission of the drastically ruevised proposal to City Council for its endorsement and certifi- cation as being in compliance with PUD conceptual approval of 1972. Attached is a chart titled "ANALYSIS OF PEACHTREE PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT" which provide essential data on the entire Peachtree Planned Unit Development. Broken out are figures for the amount of land, by section, allocated on recorded plats to arterial streets, local street~ residential lots, the Peachtree Homeowner's Association, a sewage pump station, a cemetery and 3.8 acres reserved for restricted commercial. The purpose of this letter is to consider Section 7 as priginally and finally proposed. In 1972, the Peachtree PUD applicant proposed and City Council approved 256 garden apartment housing units on this site now known to contain 14.1 acres. It is bounded by two 90' wide arterials, Twin Pines Road and Hofflers Creek Parkway, and two 60 foot wide collecto~ streets, Gatewood Drive and Peachtree Lane. The applicant abandoned the idea of constructing garden apartments and submitted a preliminary subdivision for 98 single family lots. This would represent an extension of cluster and zero lot line development. Ail owners/residents would be members of the Peachtree Association to which Section 7 would contribute 2.4 acres of permanent open space, bringing the Association's total holdings to approximately 26 acres. The Commission noted with interest that this 62% housing unit reduction drops Section 7 densit from an original eighteen (18) units per acre to the current,~proposal for seven (7) units per acre. Overall, the Peachtree Planned Unit Development on roughly 101 acres has dropped in gtc density from 6.5 to 3.8 units per acre as the number of housing units decline from 634 to 384 Interestingly, this represents compliance with guidelines established in the adopted Compre- hensive Plan documents of 1968 and 1970."
