The Land Use Planning Committee voted to forward an amended Planned Unit Development for Legacy Village — a 14‑townhome off‑campus student housing community near Notre Dame — to the full council with a favorable recommendation.

Sean Klein, area plan commission director, explained the petition is a procedural amendment to make the recorded site plan match how the units were actually constructed: "The only changes to the final site plan that are being proposed is to go from, 2 stories to 3 stories," Klein said, noting the buildings were constructed at three stories though the approved site plan on file indicated two. Klein also said the proposal would increase the per‑unit limit on unrelated occupants from six to eight for some units but would cap total occupancy at 98 residents for the entire development. "They're not proposing any additional construction whatsoever," he said.

Petitioner representative Matt Schram of Creek DeVault described the development as student housing built with security and fire suppression systems and said the change is largely to "clean up" the record to match existing construction. "We're not looking to do any material changes, either interior or exterior, just trying to kinda clean up the originally approved site plan, to match how it was originally drawn up and and constructed," Schram said. He added owners are responsive on security matters and cited letters of support from nearby neighbors, including Little Flower Catholic Church and McGowan Insurance Group.

Committee members questioned bedroom counts, occupancy mechanics and fire protection. Klein and the petitioner said each townhome has six bedrooms, that the third floor contains two larger bedrooms that can be double‑occupied to reach the eight‑person limit, and that the buildings have sprinkler systems and monitored security; committee members confirmed the fire marshal had reviewed the infrastructure and that three fire hydrants served the area. One member asked about parking; the petitioner said the site has 110 spaces and historically most residents obtain parking decals, leaving open spaces even at higher occupancy levels.

A motion to send bill 76‑25 favorably to the full council carried with the committee; the committee did not record amendments beyond the applicant's written commitments discussed during the hearing.
