According to city documents, the revised plan would add about 5 acres recently purchased on the site\u2019s northwest corner and dedicate right of way for the future extensions of Commerce Parkway and Toro Grande Boulevard.<\/p>\n<p>The plan includes an 8-foot masonry wall and 25-foot landscape buffer to protect surrounding neighborhoods. City staff recommended approval, citing that the project aligns with the city\u2019s vision for \u201cwalkable and urban\u201d development.<\/p>\n<p>The update also significantly reduces the maximum number of apartments included in the development, decreasing the total from 1,500 units to 650, \u200b\u200bas well as removing the option to request additional units through a special use permit.<\/p>\n<p>To support the business park concept, a minimum of 165,000 square feet of nonresidential uses must be constructed. City requirements ensure a significant amount of commercial and employment space is built before any housing can be occupied, part of a plan aimed at creating a mixed-use business and residential district.<\/p>\n<p>Other changes include:<\/p>\n<p>Removing \u201cplace of public assembly\u201d as a permitted useAllowing a development mix of up to 70% residential and 30% nonresidential space in the mixed-use area, which modifies the city&#8217;s standard mixed-use requirement of 60% residential and 40% nonresidentialLowering the minimum building height requirement for nonresidential buildings to 25 feetWhat\u2019s next<\/p>\n<p>The recommendation will now go to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cedarparktexas.gov\/338\/Mayor-City-Council\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Cedar Park City Council<\/a> for final consideration, with public hearings scheduled for April 9 and April 23.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Cedar Park Planning and Zoning Commission approved a rezoning request March 11 for the roughly 100-acre Indigo&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":207797,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[132,134,133,45207,81511,81510,81512,81513],"class_list":["post-207796","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-austin","tag-austin","tag-austin-headlines","tag-austin-news","tag-cedar-park-development","tag-indigo-ridge-development","tag-indigo-ridge-south","tag-parmer-and-whitestone","tag-parmer-and-whitestone-construction"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207796","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=207796"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207796\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/207797"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=207796"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=207796"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=207796"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
