Approval of Planned Unit Development (PUD) 285, Indian Springs Elementary School site, 10.66 acres, R-2 to ON, one-half mile south of Jasper Street (131st Street), one-quarter mile east of Aspen Avenue (145th East Avenue)

Background:
PUD-285 is a request for a PUD (Planned Unit Development) to be placed on a 10.66-acre parcel located one-half mile south of Jasper Street (131st Street), one-quarter mile east of Aspen Avenue (145th E.
