Title
Consider a request to reduce the fee in lieu of parkland dedication for Avanti Hills, located at 2235 East Glen Boulevard.
Body
On November 17, 2025, City Council approved a fee in lieu of parkland dedication for the Avanti Hills senior affordable housing project. The original fee of $934,531.00 was reduced by 25 percent to $700,898.25. The applicant is now requesting a 75 percent reduction, which would lower the total fee to $233,632.75.
The 260-unit multifamily development is required to dedicate 4.73 acres of parkland under the Parkland Dedication Ordinance. The proposal includes 5.67 acres of open space and private amenities, such as a pickleball court, dog park, pool, community garden, walking trails, and picnic areas. City Council may approve the requested reduction, approve a different amount, or leave the fee unchanged.
The nearest public parks to the site are Alcott Park, Copeland Park, and Rutherford Park.
Recommended/Desired Action
City Council may approve the requested reduction, approve a different amount, or leave the fee unchanged.
