SD26- Site Development
Element Hotel - Hotel Site Development

SUMMARY: A site development application (SD26-3) was submitted to review the hotel site in full. The proposed work in SD26-3 includes building a four-story hotel with a restaurant, landscaping, utilities, and parking on 2.2 acres south of Broulims. The hotel is planned to include 107 rooms, 67 including kitchenettes, a bar/lounge, pool and patio area, with 106 off-street parking spaces.  A separate application was submitted for the proposal of public improvements of the 300 Main property s – water/sewer/utilities within Harrop Avenue, a newly proposed street (see SD26-1).
PROJECT HISTORY: In 2021 the entire hotel project went through a design review process. With no changes to the exterior of the building, it was determined that the project could resubmit to confirm site development conformance. The applicant requested to submit the project in two pieces to start construction of the public improvements as quickly as possible. This application is for the Hotel Site portion.
APPLICABLE CODES & ORDINANCES: Site Development Permits are governed by Art. 14.6 of the Land Development Code (LDC) and Appendix A of the LDC.
REVIEW PROCESS: For Site Plan Review the Administrator is the review authority except when, at the Administrator’s discretion, Site Plans for projects over 5,000 square feet or that disturb more than 5,000 square feet of ground are forwarded to the Planning and Zoning Commission for review during a public meeting in accordance with Article 14.3. This application is for Site Development of more than 5,000 square feet.
