Mountain Star PUD Amendment
PROJECT TYPE: PUD Amendment --Lot Line Elimination
ZONING: PUD
This is a Public Hearing for a PUD Amendment of Mountain Star Subdivision for
the elimination of a common lot line, thereby, creating one lot.
PROPOSED PUD REVISIONS
Willis J. Wright, Jr., on behalf of Mountain Star Limited Liability Co., has submitted an
application for a PUD amendment for the elimination of a common lot line between lots
91 and 92, Filing 2. The elimination will create one lot and reduce the number of lots for
Mountain Star PUD.
HISTORY:
Mountain Star PUD received approval from the Planning and Zoning Commission on
November 2, 1992, for 88 single family lots with one care taker unit for each lot. In
March of 1994, Mountain Star PUD was amended to add an additional six single family
lots with a care taker unit on each lot. The existing Mountain Star PUD allows for a total
of 94 single family lots.
In November of 1994, a PUD amendment was approved for the elimination of a common
lot line between lots 87 and 88, thereby, reducing the number of allowed single family lots
to 93. This amendment would further reduce the number of allowed single family lots to
92.

elimination of a common lot line between 91 and 92, Filing 2.
