Final PUD North Building
The Reserve at Hudson Crossing
Applicant: Shodeen Group, LLC
Project #1097.21
Project Manager: Rod Zenner
Director Zenner stated the applicant is requesting approval of the Final PUD for the north building of The Reserve at Hudson Crossing to allow for the development of a six-story 104- unit residential building with 119 garage parking spaces.
Director Zenner stated in 2018, the Village Board approved Ordinance #18-56 approving a major change to the Preliminary PUD resulting in the south building now containing 176 residential units, 10,100 square feet of commercial space, and 329 garaged parking spaces and the north building containing 104 residential units and 199 garage parking spaces.
Director Zenner stated in December of 2018, the Village Board approved Ordinance #18-99 approving the Final PUD for The Reserve at Hudson Crossing, which approved the Final PUD Plat for both the south and north buildings and also approved the elevations for the south building.
Director Zenner stated the petitioner is now requesting Final PUD approval for the north building, which is substantially in compliance with the approved Preliminary Plat. Director Zenner stated the building will be L-Shaped as the northwest portion of the lot is subject to storm water storage. Director Zenner stated the building will be six stories in height with the tallest portion adjacent to the southern building. Director Zenner stated the building reduces to 4-½ stories above ground towards the north adjacent to the creek.
Director Zenner stated the elevations will have similar materials as the nearly completed southern building with a limestone look base and siding for the upper levels. Director Zenner stated there will be brick accents at the main corner of the building that will cover the side of the building and accents at the main entrance to the building.
Director Zenner stated this Final PUD approval would include the elevation plans as part of the Final PUD, and as the proposed elevation plans are consistent with the approved Preliminary Plan, staff recommends approval of the Final PUD for the north building of The Reserve at Hudson Crossing.
David Patzelt, representing Shodeen Group, gave an overview of the project and the current occupancy rates. Don McCoy, representing Sheehan, Nagle, Hartray Architects, gave an overview of the details of the north building, elevations and landscape plan.
