Body
BACKGROUND: The Celebration Pointe parcel was previously approved for 580 dwelling units via Ordinance 2009-13 on August 19, 2009. The most recent Planned Unit Development (PUD) approved for this property was for 412 garden apartments overall with 290 garden apartments in Phase I, approved by Ordinance RZ-3-2008.

This PUD amendment reflects 580 garden apartments overall with 282 garden apartments in Phase I, renaming the project from Broadstone Montebello to Celebration Pointe, a change in the bedroom mix of the units of Phase I, the approved buffer reduction, as well as modifications to the parking lot and building foot prints of the development.
