3205 Stevens Street (District 5): Consideration of a conditional use in the Suburban Residential-Varied 2 (SR-V2) District for outdoor recreation, and consideration of an alteration to an approved conditional use for a residential building complex in the Suburban Residential-Varied 2 (SR-V2) District to allow construction of two (2) four-story, 26-unit multi-family dwellings, a two-story, three-unit multi-family dwelling, and two (2) two-story, four-unit multi-family dwellings in an existing residential building complex.

Summary

This item seeks approval for a conditional use and an alteration to an approved conditional use for the existing Woodland Reserve Apartment Complex at 3205 Stevens Street in the SR-V2 district. The project involves adding 62 new dwelling units across four new buildings to the existing 129 units, bringing the total to 191 units on the 8.41-acre site. The new construction includes:

• Two (2) four-story, 26-unit multi-family buildings (Buildings 1 & 2), each 48'-2" tall, with underground parking.
• Two (2) two-story, 5-unit multi-family buildings (Buildings 4 & 5), each 35'-10" tall, with individual garages.

The development will increase the site density to 22.7 units per acre and lot coverage to 49%. New amenities include a central outdoor pool and a dog run. The project also features new pedestrian and vehicular pathways, improved site lighting, and new landscaping. Parking will consist of 233 vehicle stalls (62 garage, 171 surface), with 27 EV-ready stalls, and 255 bicycle stalls. Construction is anticipated to begin in Spring 2026 and conclude in Summer 2027. Community input has led to updates in pedestrian connections and refuse management procedures.

Citizen Impact

This development will increase housing options in the Rocky Bluff Neighborhood by adding 62 new units, potentially accommodating more residents. It will also introduce new recreational amenities like a pool and dog run, and improve pedestrian connections throughout the complex and to nearby streets. Residents may experience temporary construction impacts from Spring 2026 to Summer 2027, and a slight increase in neighborhood density and traffic.
