Mr. Morey presented the planning report for, Morgan Square Third Addition, which. is the third and final phase of the Morgan Square development approved in 2002. The property is currently zoned Planned Unit Development, with an underlying zoning of RM-1, Medium Density Residential District. Mr. Morey explained that when this development was originally proposed, it was anticipated that Keystone Avenue would be a collector street, thus requiring additional right of way. The developer asked for reduced guest. parking setbacks to accommodate the additional collector street right of way, and the City zoned the property PUD to accommodate the reduced setback. Since that time, the RM-1 guest parking setback requirements have been revised, and the new RM-1 standards match those that were permitted under the Morgan Square PUD.

Keystone Avenue will connect to 207t" Street, thus the minor collector status for Keystone Avenue has been reduced.
