Subject: Request to amend the name of Crestwood Commons to Crestwood Heights.
Background Summary:
The Crestwood Commons town home development is proposed to be located on Lot "C" of the
Ocoee Commons PUD. The owner of the property has requested the name change in order to
distinguish the townhome portion from the overall subdivision. Crestwood Heights will allow this
distinction because it does not contain the word 'commons' in the title. The project is now ready to
begin construction and the owner has met with city staff for a pre-construction meeting on February
24, 2005.
Please find the letter requesting the name change attached.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The Crestwood Commons townhome development is proposed to be located on Lot "c" of the Ocoee Commons
PUD. The subject site will encompass approximately 14.4 acres and is located east of Blackwood Avenue and
north of W. Colonial Drive (SR 50). The owner intends to develop the property as a private, gated townhome
with fee simple ownership of the units. The City Commission approved the Ocoee Commons Final Subdivision
Plan on April 6, 2004 and the City Commission approved the Crestwood Commons Final Subdivision Plan on
January 4,2005.
The owner of the property has requested the name change in order to distinguish the townhome portion from the
overall subdivision. Crestwood Heights will allow this distinction because it does not contain the word
'commons' in the title. The project is now ready to begin construction and the owner has met with city staff for
a pre-construction meeting on February 24, 2005.
Please find the letter requesting the name change attached.
DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMMITTEE (DRC) RECOMMENDATION
The DRC met on AprilS, 2005 to consider the name change. Staff considered how the proposed name change
would affect record keeping issues and fire/police and it was determined that the name change would not have a
negative effect. The DRC voted unanimously to recommend approval of the name change request.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Based on the recommendation of the DRC, staff respectfully recommends that the Mayor and the City
Commissioners approve the requested name change from Crestwood Commons to Crestwood Heights.
