Liza Hart, property owner representative, is requesting Planned Development approval to construct a 6-story addition to the existing permanent supportive multifamily residential development, Sunrise Metro, at approximately 580 S 500 W. The existing development and proposed addition will consist of a total of 218 deeply affordable dwelling units with rents between 25-30% of the area median income (AMI). The subject site is approximately 2.7 acres and is in the CG General Commercial Zone.
The proposal includes the renovation of the existing 4 story building which currently contains 100 residential units: 6 studios, 94 one-bedrooms, as well as case management and support service spaces. An additional 18 one-bedroom units are proposed to be constructed within the existing building. A 6-story addition is proposed to be constructed on the west (rear) façade of the existing building and will consist of 100 one bedroom dwelling units. The addition will contain ground floor amenities including case management offices, supportive services, a gym, food pantry, and pharmacy.
The proposed development is located within the boundaries of the Downtown Master Plan and is required to provide midblock walkways along the north and west property boundaries as identified in the plan (City code 21A.26.070.H).
