Liberty Creek Preliminary Plat Denied by Planning Commission

The Planning Commission considered a preliminary plat for Liberty Creek, located at the northwest and southwest corners of Coffee Creek and Sooner. Staff recommended denial due to non-conformance with the Liberty Park East PUD (Z23-00015). Specific concerns included a lack of varied housing types, street and alley layout not prioritizing users, exceeding the maximum number of residential lots, and a lack of functional open spaces. The applicant argued for flexibility within the PUD, stating their proposal met density allowances and incorporated necessary infrastructure. After extensive discussion and public comment regarding the PUD's intent, lot density, infrastructure costs, and comparison to other developments, the commission voted 0-5 to deny the preliminary plat.
