South Undeveloped PUD
East Undeveloped (across Hwy 82) B-2 & FAR
West Single Family Residential (Pecan Ridge & the HomePlace) R-3 & PUD
EVALUATION/COMMENTS:
Street Connectivity: The site has frontage on Hwy 82 (restricted access), and to Constitution Ave and Coffee Exchange
Water/Sewer: Public water and sewer is in the area
Zoning District Lot Standards: see comment section for PUD standards
Staff Analysis/Comments:
The subject site is zoned PUD (Planned Unit Development), with approximately seven acres zoned B-2 (General Business) on the northeast corner. The southern portion of the subject site was zoned PUD in 2004 and specified that permitted uses “shall be limited
to residential land uses” and “may be single-family units and multi-family units including apartments.” The northern portion of the site was zoned PUD in 2006 and specified that permitted uses “shall…be multi-family residential at no greater than 13 units per acre.”
When the new Zoning Ordinance was adopted in March 2022, it stated that for previously approved PUDs, the
“approved Master Plan may continue in accordance with the Zoning Ordinance in effect at the time of such prior approval. Should the Master Plan approval expire or be voided, any newly submitted Master Plan must conform to the regulations in effect at the time of the new submittal” (§ 6.04.01 (3) (c)).
See letter to Forge Residential Partners, LLC, dated February 27, 2024 (attached), for more in-depth details on the
existing zoning and regulations. The Commission heard a request for a preliminary plan and rezoning at this same site by the same applicant at its November 2023 meeting. That request included the same proposed housing types (duplexes, townhomes, garages,
and amenities on a single parcel), with 234 proposed dwelling units. The Commission voted to approve the
preliminary plan and also voted to recommend the rezoning of the site (existing PUD and B-2) to PUD. The City Council voted to not approve the rezoning at their February 6, 2024 meeting.

Page 3 of 4
The current proposal has 192 dwelling units in the existing PUD-zoned area. The current proposal also includes a
new public street bisecting the site from Constitution Ave to Coffee Exchange (would be an extension of Coffee
Exchange). The B-2-zoned area includes community amenities such as a clubhouse and park/open space, ground floor includes for-rent garages with upper floor dwellings (upper floor dwellings are a permitted use in B-2 zoning), with remaining B-2 area unspecified but reserved for commercial use.
This proposal includes a north-south street connection between Coffee Exchange and Constitution Ave with the
intent to dedicate as a public street. The applicant has submitted this as a Sketch Plan in order to receive feedback from the Planning Commission and staff.
When considering PUD rezoning requests, the Zoning Ordinance directs the Planning Commission to consider the following (§ 6.04.02 (1) (d)): 1) The proposal conforms to the comprehensive plan.
2) The proposal meets the intent, objectives and general requirements of the Planned Unit Development District. 3) The proposal is conceptually sound in that it meets a community need and conforms to accepted design principles in the proposed street system, land use configuration, open space system, and drainage and utility systems.
4) There are adequate services and utilities available in the construction of the development. Further, when reviewing a PUD Master Plan, the Commission shall use these criteria (§ 6.04.02 (2) (d)): 1) Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan, including appropriateness of land uses and densities in the
particular location and incorporation of recommended development patterns and design characteristics 2) Conformance with the use, density and development standards in this Section 3) Suitability of the particular site for development as proposed, without hazards to persons or property, on or off the tract, from probability of flooding, erosion, slipping of the soil, or other dangers or nuisances. The uses, intensity and layout of the proposed development must be suitable to soil, ground water level,
drainage, and topographic conditions. 4) Preservation and/or conservation of historic, scenic and natural features 5) Establishment and method of enforcement of development standards not specified in this Section, including but not limited to lot size, setbacks and building separation 6) Specification of development standards proposed to substitute for any other normally applicable zoning
regulations, including but not limited to parking, signage and landscaping 7) Adequacy and arrangement of vehicular, pedestrian and bicycle access and circulation, including the design of the street network, intersections and streets; access management and traffic controls; and provision of sidewalks, paths and other bicycle and pedestrian facilities 8) Phasing of the development as necessary to assure that public or private facilities will be available at the
time the development reaches the stage where such facilities will be needed. 9) Location, arrangement and sufficiency of parking 10) Location, arrangement, size and design of buildings and lighting 11) Relationship of the proposed uses and densities to one another and to adjoining development 12) Adequacy, type and arrangement of buffers, screening and other normally required landscaping
13) The adequacy and arrangement of usable open space 14) Adequacy of storm water and sanitary waste disposal facilities 15) Design and adequacy of structures, roadways, and landscaping in areas susceptible to flooding, ponding and/or erosion
DR
A
F
T
Page 4 of 4
16) Compliance with all other regulations and the intent of this Ordinance.
For the purposes of this sketch plan review, the Planning Commission may use the above criteria for guidance in
providing feedback. Moving forward, a full plan must be submitted to the Planning Commission and approval must be granted prior to any permits for development are approved. Based on this sketch plan, a preliminary plat will also be required to
reconfigure the parcels and dedicate the proposed street right-of-way.
Reviewed by: Scott Stephens, City Planner
Recommendation: Approve. Sketch plan meets standards of underlying PUD and B-2 zoning*
*A sketch plan is a non-binding, optional precursor to a preliminary plat. The purpose of a sketch plan is to give the subdivider an opportunity to confer with the City staff and Planning Commission prior to submitting a master plan or preliminary plat.

Forge Residen�al Partners Plan B Overview
Background – Plan A.
By way of background, Forge Residen�al Partners (“Forge”) received preliminary Master Plan
and PUD rezoning approvals from the Planning Commission for a 234-unit cotage and
townhome plan (“Plan A”) on November 16th, 2023. Subsequently, the rezoning request was
denied at City Council. Despite 4 of the 6 seated councilors (1 vacant seat) suppor�ng the
project, one supporter decided to abstain from vo�ng, and another was absent on the day of
the vote so the rezoning request ul�mately failed to pass.
General Descrip�on of Plan B.
Similar in concept to Plan A, Plan B is a Class A+ cotage and townhome development but, at
192 units, is comprised of 42 fewer units than Plan A. Plan B represents a by-right development
proposal that has been designed to be fully compliant with the exis�ng PUD zoning and
ordinance, which is limited to single-family and mul�family housing by-right. Moreover, the
development will have a maximum building height of 2 stories (over 60% of the buildings will be
1 story) and our parking counts comply with the mul�family sec�ons of both the previous and
current zoning ordinances.
The clubhouse building, amenity areas and 6 mixed-use units/buildings (residen�al over
storage/garages for rent) have been placed on part of the B2-zoned sec�on of the site, which
per the B2 sec�ons of the zoning ordinance, their uses are permited by-right. The last piece of
the B2 parcel (NE sec�on of site plan) is not a part of this project, but it is contemplated as a
future phase of neighborhood retail.
New Public Road.
Our Plan B also contemplates a public road connec�ng Cons�tu�on Avenue and Coffee
Exchange/ Legends Drive. This public road will consist of a 56’ ROW and provide two means of
public access to the future retail parcel. The road will also help alleviate traffic on Hwy 82 by
providing the Homeplace neighborhood and other Pratville residents with another means of
egress off Cons�tu�on Avenue and access to a signalized intersec�on via Legends Drive.
Moreover, it will increase the Homeplace neighborhood’s connec�vity and accessibility by
providing a direct connec�on to the Exchange shopping center and Cobbs Ford Rd.
DRAFT
Density Analysis
Excluding the future retail parcel, the approximate total land area for the Cotages site is 40
acres, which would represent a total density of 4.8 units per acre. The calculated density on just
the two PUD parcels would equal 5.8 units per acre. This would adhere to our site’s future land
use designa�on in the Pratville 2040 Comprehensive Plan of medium-density residen�al, which
allows 4-5 units per acre.
Moreover, according to the Gresham Place PUD agreement, the Gresham Place PUD land
area/parcels shall be limited to mul�family housing at a density of no greater than 13 units per
acre. There are 52.64 acres of land (19 - Cotages and 33.64 – Park Apartments) governed by
the Gresham Place PUD Agreement, which would represent a total allowable density of 684
units on just the land associated with the Gresham Place PUD.
Our plan (192 units) combined with the Park Apartments (259 units) would only equate to 451
units, which is 233 units less than what is allowed. In fact, all three proper�es across the en�re
HomePlace development (Meadows, Park, and Cotages) combined would equal the allowable
density in just the Gresham Place por�on of the PUD.
Adherence to the Pratville 2040 Comprehensive Plan
Forge has designed and tailored The Cottages at Prattville to specifically meet the goals
and objectives outlined in the Prattville 2040 comprehensive Plan including:
• Find housing options in between conventional multifamily and single-family homes
such as detached single-family homes on small lots, townhouses (attached
housing) and cottage housing, and
• Focus on creating authentic, family-friendly neighborhoods featuring varied housing
stock with different sizes and styles…including slow traffic streets, sidewalks, and
open common space,
• Avoid residential developments that are inward-focused and lacking visual or
physical connections to adjacent residential areas, and
• Provide housing choice for people in all stages of life – married couples with children
and without, young singles and older ones, empty nesters and so on.
Moreover, the Comprehensive Plan stated that “the key to integrating mid- and higher density
housing successfully in Prattville – while respecting existing neighborhoods and the community’s
desired character – is directing it to transitions between activity centers and lower density, single
-family neighborhoods.” Our development’s loca�on directly between the lower density
Homeplace neighborhood and the higher density Park Apartments, combined with the new
public road crea�ng connec�vity to the ac�vity center along Cobbs Ford will represent this
desired integra�on and transi�on perfectly. See Transi�on Map included with submital.

Addressing Market Demand & Community Objec�ves
The City of Pratville popula�on has grown by more than 10% over the last 10 years yet only one
mul�family community (The Mill) has been built during that span. Moreover, the current
average occupancy of all exis�ng mul�family proper�es in Pratville is 98% meaning there is
virtually no available rental housing in the City.
Moreover, with the na�onal average cost of home ownership nearly 50% higher than the
na�onal average cost to rent, coupled with the recent genera�onal shi� towards ren�ng and
“maintenance free living”, demand for rental housing is at an all-�me high. As a result, Forge
wants to help Pratville address this demand but do it in a way that has not been in the market.
Cotages at Pratville will provide renters with the look and feel of homeownership and
neighborhood living without the financial burden or commitment.
Exis�ng trees, slopes and geological features will be preserved wherever possible, and erosion
control and stormwater management will be top priori�es during/post construc�on. Robust
landscaping will be installed to enhance the natural beaty of the community and surrounding
neighborhood.
Homeplace Neighborhood Concerns & Forge Concessions.
Forge understands and appreciates the concerns from the Homeplace neighborhood regarding
the views along Cons�tu�on Avenue and the increased traffic a new development could cause.
Skipper Consul�ng, one of the most experienced and top-rated traffic engineering and
consul�ng firms in the Southeast, completed a traffic study that concluded the following:
• Constitution Ave intersection will continue to operate with acceptable levels of service
during peak traffic periods, and
• Development related traffic would have little impact to the intersection’s capacity /
delay, and
• No roadway improvements are recommended at the study intersections.
These findings were made before decreasing the size of the development and the crea�on of
the new public road. To address the concerns about the views on Cons�tu�on, Forge designed
10 new, unique premium cotages varying in style, color, and height that will line and face
Cons�tu�on Avenue. Moreover, the units will have a significant setback of approximately 60�
off Cons�tu�on and feature a robust landscaping buffer with a brick and wood fence. See
Cons�tu�on Ave Design Package for an illustra�on and more informa�on.

Constitution Avenue Design Study
Purpose of Study:Forge Residential Partners understood the concerns from the HomePlace neighborhood regarding views of
the cottages along Constitution Avenue. Residents were specifically concerned about seeing repetitive,“cookie cutter”
product going to/from their homes. As a result,we tasked our architect to study the existing homes within HomePlace in an
effort to design completely new, premium cottages along Constitution Avenue that match the architectural vernacular of the
neighborhood as closely as possible.
The six homes pictured above represent the similar standard for architectural styles that we applied to the new design
scheme.Our objective was to supplement and compliment rather than detract from the existing design principals and,
ultimately,for our community to feel like an extension of the HomePlace neighborhood.

Precedent for Cottage Design along Constitution Ave.
Findings: We found that HomePlace features a diverse mix of architectural styles, representing mostly modernized versions of
Colonial/Greek Revival, Federal/Georgian, Craftsman, Italianate, traditional Ranch, French Eclectic, or a blend of these.
The mixture of styles is an intentional feature of our new cottages and provides a custom and diverse experience when
arriving to the property. Moreover, we also wanted to directly address the Prattville 2040 Master Plan housing goals to “createauthentic, family-friendly neighborhoods featuring varied housing stock with different sizes and styles…and to create physical
connections to adjacent residential areas.”

Similarities between HomePlace & Cottages along Constitution Avenue
Forge’s revised design scheme resulted in several similarities between HomePlace and our new cottages including:•Eclectic mix of architectural styles and a mixture of 1-and 2-story houses,•Each home/cottage has a large front porch and similar landscaping & lighting, •Mixture of fiber cement and brick siding, and brick details, •Mostly shingle main roofs with metal accent roofs,•Ornamental wood accents, columns, railings, and shutters,•Variety of door and window styles and colors, and•Setback from Const Ave curb for Cottages is ~60’ vs ~30’ for HomePlace homes.

E. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
On April 15, 2021, the Planning Commission adopted an updated Prattville Comprehensive Plan. The Future Land Use Plan and Map in Land Use + Transportation section (pg. 40) of the document shows the subject parcel in a Medium Density Residential area.
The boundaries of land use categories shown on the Future Land Use map should not be interpreted rigidly, but the general pattern should be observed to support comfortable transitions between uses.
PLANNING STAFF EVALUATION
This property has been owned by AT&T (f/k/a South Central Bell Telephone Company) since 1973. It is on a corner lot directly across from an elementary school. Washington Street and Wetumpka Street both have higher traffic volumes than an average residential street. Wetumpka Street at this location had a 7,412 daily cars in 2022.
The current use, an office and telecommunications center, is a legal nonconforming use for the current
underlying zoning of R-2 (Single Family Residential). O-1 zoning would be reasonable for the location, surrounding uses, and current use. Reviewed by: Scott Stephens, City Planner
Recommendation: Approve
