2015.03.23 Council Agenda Item 04

Summary

Presentation and discussion regarding a proposed amendment to the OceanView Master Plan.

A public comment period will not be included with this item.

ACTION: Council action is not anticipated.

Description

The Town Council and OceanView developed a Master Plan in 2012 that allowed an expansion of OceanView onto formerly town-owned property which included the former Lunt and Plummer-Motz schools. The Town retained the Mason-Motz building for an activity center. The Master Plan permitted, among other things, an expansion of cottage units, additional multiplex style housing, memory care related services and residential units, commercial uses in Lunt School, an auditorium for public and private use in the former Lunt gymnasium, and an enhanced green and open area between Plummer and Lunt, with other uses to be determined. 

OceanView would like to amend the Master Plan to allow senior housing in the former Plummer school building and expand that building onto a portion of the Town-owned Village Green. It is also proposing to enhance the Village Green in a manner that will include more improvements than originally planned. Finally, it is requesting that the Master Plan also allow additional cottage units on three newly acquired parcels along Middle Road. 

The following attachments offered by OceanView will be used in the presentation at the April 13 Town Council meeting:

  • Original approved Master Plan
  • Proposed Master Plan related to the Plummer building and green space
  • Proposed Master Plan related to additional cottages
  • Location map related to the additional cottages
  • Proposed schedule to accommodate the development of an amended Master Plan
