I. Section 905.1.E Neighborhood Parks, Amount of Land Required, to reduce the total park

Villages of Pasadena Hills Planning and Policy Committee · 2026-04-15 · agenda_item

The Villages of Pasadena Hills Planning and Policy Committee is reviewing a request to adjust park land requirements for apartment developments. The applicant seeks a variation to reduce the required park acreage for apartments, which currently must be at least 10% of the multi-family parcel's upland area. This proposed change would allow for less land dedicated to parks within apartment complexes, provided the applicant uses the LUEM to convert entitlements to vertically integrated apartments. The Parks, Recreation, and Natural Resources Department and PDE have reviewed the request and believe it meets the code's intent. This item is currently under review, representing an early stage in the planning process. If approved, the variation could influence future apartment development projects, potentially impacting site planning, design, and the types of recreational amenities incorporated. Businesses involved in land development, civil engineering, landscape architecture, and construction trades could find opportunities as projects move forward.
