On Monday, Aug. 14, the Pleasant Prairie Plan Commission considered and
approved the Final Condominium Plat for the first phase of The Cottages
at Village Green Heights located on vacant property north of Main Street
at 47th Avenue. The first phase will include 31 condominium units (9
single unit buildings and 11 two-unit buildings).
Future
expansion area will include 41 condominium units. When all phases are
complete the development will include 72 condominium units, comprised of
38 single-family buildings and 17 two-family buildings, which is
consistent with the approved Preliminary Condominium Plat which was
approved on Monday, March 27 of this year.
The development is
consistent with the Village’s Comprehensive Land Use Plan, including the
Village Green Neighborhood Plan, the Conceptual Plan, and the
Preliminary Condominium Plat.
In the Cottages at Village Green
Heights development there will be a net density of six units per net
acre. It is anticipated that the units will range from $270,000 to
$370,000.
There will be four different ranch condominium models
ranging in size from 1,460 to 1,830 square feet and two-story Cape Cod
units in two different styles, ranging from 1,900 to 2,200 square feet.
The housing units will provide for two or three bedrooms (with first
floor master bedrooms), two or two and a half bathrooms with full
basements, two-car garages, and covered porches. The site will be fully
landscaped with lawn irrigation.
Jean Werbie-Harris, Community
Development Director commented that, “This is the first residential
development project that has started from the conceptual plan phase in
ten years. After the housing market went through a slump back in 2009,
we have been focused on completing existing developments. With a
stronger housing market and lower unemployment rates, this is an ideal
time begin this new development project”.
The developer
anticipates starting construction on the required public improvements
this summer and anticipates that the development will be completed
within two to three and a half years. In addition, the Developer has
submitted a revised draft Declaration of Condominium, Articles of
Incorporation and By-laws.
