WHERE THE CREEK MEETS THE PRAIRIE...

COMMUNITY CHARACTER

Parklands community is fortunate to be in a unique place where there is an opportunity to be influenced by three environments. Situated on the Colorado Front Range, the community is primarily a natural mixed grass Prairie. Over the years the predominantly flat site has been cultivated to create a rich agricultural history. Centrally located on the property is the historic homestead of the Smith Farm. Today the main barn, windmill, and auxiliary structures stand as a reminder of the past. Adjacent to the farm, Coal Creek meanders through an established cottonwood gallery. These important natural features provide the foundation for Parklands

The theme of Parklands focuses on how these three environments blend to create a successful community. A theme that equally reflects the prairie and Coal Creek corridor with accents from the historical farm, “Where the creek meets the prairie”. The main characteristic of the community will focus on the transitional zone between Coal Creek and the Colorado Prairie. An ‘ecotone’ is the transition boundary zone between two environments. In Parklands, this occurs within the Cottonwood gallery. It is the boundary between Coal Creek and the Colorado Prairie. In this zone the environments meet and integrate, forming new communities that are rich in landscape, material, and diversity. Our vision is to BLEND, BALANCE, and INTEGRATE these natural environments into the built community.

The primary landscape theme will consist of large sweeping native areas that use landforms, native grasses, and water-wise plantings indicative to the Colorado Prairie. As the large native landscape areas move through the site and open space corridors, they will gently blend into developed spaces creating soft transition zones. These developed spaces of parks, accent nodes, or community entries will create the landscape patches in Parklands.

These patches and their edges will become the critical points of interaction between open space and development. The landscape character within the patches will use a wider variety of plant material, dense shade areas, and programmed uses, creating an oasis. The patches are an area of habitat differing from the surrounding landscape area. They are the balanced steppingstones that link the open space corridors. As an interconnected system of parks, open space, trails, and the Coal Creek corridor, these patches when linked become the landscape mosaic of Parklands.

The community theme focuses on blending the existing environment into the built community, creating balance through development with programmed patches, and then integrating the network of landscape mosaics. These themes will be reflected through the landscapes, built features, and architecture.

Notes:

1 -Roads, trails, Planning Area access and locations of schools sites, neighborhood commercial, park dedications are conceptual in nature and subject to modification and refinement.

2 -Canyons Parkway R.O.W. will vary in width depending on landscaping and median design. Land use areas are calculated using a set R.O.W. width of 120'.

3 -Existing contour interval - 10 feet.

4 -The boundaries of each planning area are conceptual and are subject to minor adjustments, provided such adjustments in boundaries do not alter maximum densities, minimum open space or other development requirements set forth in this plan.

5 -The total number of Dwelling Units and/or non-residential square feet (within any individual Planning Area) permitted shall be limited only by the overall cap of 2,500 D.U., the maximum square footage in sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.6, the Development Standards, and the standards contained in section 4 of this Development Plan. Ancillary units shall be limited to 250 units.

6 - Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, until such time as construction has commenced within an area of the Property subject to a Final Plat, those uses specified in sections 302.01, 302.02, 302.04, 302.05, 302.06, 302.08 and 302.09 of the Zoning Ordinance shall be permitted principal uses on all portions of the Property.

7 - To accommodate at least 650,000 square feet of non-residential uses of which at least 280,000 will be retail sales tax generating uses on the Property, not less than 75 acres of land located collectively in Planning Areas 1, 2 and 3 will be reserved for predominately retail sales tax generating uses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, every square foot of retail sales tax generating uses constructed on the Property will count towards such 280,000 square feet, regardless of which Planning Area the retail sales tax generating uses are located and for each retail sales tax generating square foot constructed outside of such 75 acre reserved area, the 75 acre area shall be reduced by 5 square feet . Once a minimum of 280,000 square feet of retail sales tax generating uses are built anywhere on the Property, this restriction on Planning Areas 1,2 and 3 will be completely eliminated.
