The applicant is amending the Oakmont Planned Development (PD 02-22) to convert the plan
from a resort style golf course community to solely a residential community. In addition to
removing the conditions relating to the golf course and its accessory uses, the applicant is
requesting an elimination of the buffering that was placed on the development to mitigate the
adverse impacts of a resort community on its two neighboring residential subdivisions. Both staff
and the applicant believe such condition is no longer necessary since the developments have
become similar and compatible uses. Other conditions are being either removed or modified to
recognize requirements that have been met. A new site plan is proposed as well to further the
development’s commitment to a residential project. With that site plan is a request for a setback
variance for the two development signs affixed to the entrance wall features.
