Skyline Village Planned Area Development Amendment – Case# PZ-PD-009-20

Request

The scope of this project is to amend the existing PAD-CR3 (Planned Area Development) from PAD C-3 to PAD R-7 to allow the development of a single family housing development. This project seeks approval of Skyline Village (“Skyline”) which is being proposed as a premier single-family community that incorporates 72 acres of expansive open space (25% – 18% is required), an enhanced trail system, and exquisite community amenities.  The Project will consist of 1,150 single-family lots on 288 acres within APN 210-11-001C.   The development is located on the southwest corner of Skyline Dr. and Quail Run, in Pinal County, Arizona.

Overview

Skyline Village Planned Area Development (“PAD”) was approved by Pinal County Board of Supervisors back in 2005 as a 1,017 lot residential community.  Since that time, there have been changes in the housing market that warrant residential developments, like Skyline Village, to provide a variety of lot sizes and offer diverse housing options for future homeowners. The revised PAD for Skyline Village lays out the land use characteristics for the property and proposes a master plan development consisting of single-family residential at a density of 4.0 units per acre.  A key characteristic of Skyline Village is its abundance of open space, with approximately 25% (72 acres) of the site being reserved for open space and landscape tracts, including a centrally located Community Park, five neighborhood parks, an extensive trail system, and other premier community amenities. 

The site is currently zoned CR-3 PAD.  The San Tan Valley Special Area Use Plan designation for the property is Suburban Neighborhood (1-4 DU/Acre).  Thus, this request complies with both Pinal County’s Comprehensive Plan and the San Tan Valley Special Area Use Plan.

Circulation

Four points of access will be provided into Skyline Village.  The first built access will be off Quail Run Lane consisting of an 80’ collector street with a raised median, unique entry signage, detached sidewalks and prominent landscaping lining the road.

The following point of access will be off Skyline Drive via an 80’ collector road with a raised median and detached sidewalks with enhanced landscaping and signage.  Additional points of access include an 80’ collector road off Sierra Vista Drive, and access from Skyline Drive on the Carriage Drive alignment.  Local streets within the community will connect to collectors to serve the site.

Amenities

Skyline Village provides an abundant amount of recreational amenities for the residents of all ages that range from minor gathering areas, to exercise trails, to splashing in the pools.  Extensive amounts of usable open space areas include but are not limited to a large centralized community park and neighborhood pocket parks that are linked with a network of multi-use trails, connecting the amenities with the residential neighborhoods.

Landscaping

Skyline Village has been delicately designed to provide creative uses of open space areas, parks, trails, theming, and landscape. The landscape plan includes a diverse plant palette that features lush looking, low water use, desert tolerant plant materials. Shade trees, screening shrubs and colorful accent groundcover materials are used throughout the project to enhance the community aesthetics and pedestrian experiences.  The design intent of the landscaping is to utilize a variety of water efficient trees, shrubs, and groundcovers that will provide shade, visual interest, buffering, and aesthetic value to the project.  Careful selection and massing of plant materials and turf will provide colorful and appropriate transitions from the surrounding areas.  Turf will be used strategically to enhance the design aesthetics while not unnecessarily lowering the sustainability of the project.  The landscape design will adhere to the landscape recommendations for open space and recreational areas as outlined in the OSRM and will meet the requirements for PAD’s outlined in the Pinal County Development Services Code.
