UC DAVIS / CITY OF VACAVILLE URBAN DESIGN & PLANNING STUDIO COLLABORATION STUDYING INFILL DEVELOPMENT CONCEPTS FOR THE ALLISON PRIORITY DEVELOPMENT AREA (PDA) The City had the opportunity to participate on a project with a group of urban design students from UC Davis studying land use concepts for infill development areas. The course instructor, Professor Emily Schlickman, designed a course examining infill development issues, especially where urban and wild landscapes meet, and how to design communities where these features intersect. This is the fourth year that the City has had the opportunity to meet and work with a class from UC Davis on urban design and planning projects. The collaboration has provided the City with the opportunity to learn about innovative planning concepts, and has provided students with the opportunity to interact with professionals from various City departments and gain experience in working with community members and public agencies.

SOUTHTOWN DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT AMENDMENT -- Tom Phillippi, Phillippi Engineering, Inc., Applicant APN: 0137-030-040 and 0137-030-160 File No. 21-023 Staff Contact: Albert Enault, Associate Planner The project proposal is to amend the Southtown Development Agreement (DA) for the purpose of extending the term limit by three years. The original DA was adopted by City Council on May 11, 2004 with a 10-year term, and later amended on June 24, 2014 to allow another 7-year extension, ending on June 30, 2021. The amendment would extend the term until June 30, 2024. Although the extension would apply to the apartment site, the primary purpose for the DA amendment is to provide more time to allow the continued development of Southtown Phase 3. Phase 3 is a 63.53-acre portion of the larger Southtown project area, and consists of 242 lots for single family detached homes in low medium (RLM-3.6) and low density (RL-5) neighborhood configurations. Phase 3 also includes the eastern half of Magnolia Park (5.07 acres) with two smaller 1-acre parcels designated for community type uses (such as day care and church), and a 2 acre parcel designated for future neighborhood-oriented commercial development.
