ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION – January 10, 2018 7 <br /> <br />Mr. Kotoski stated he was uncertain but noted a culvert was in place. <br /> <br />Commissioner Lambeth inquired if this property was currently for sale and asked if there were <br />any contingencies. <br /> <br />Mr. Kotoski commented this was the case and noted he was the broker for this transaction. He <br />reported the sale of the property was contingent upon the lot splits. He noted he had offers <br />already for both lots. <br /> <br />Ashley Farmer, resident of New Brighton, stated she was hoping to purchase Lot 2. She <br />explained she and her husband worked for the New Brighton Fire Department and her husband <br />was a police officer. She indicated they both enjoy giving back to their community. She <br />addressed some of the concerns raised by the public. She stated she wanted the same things as <br />these neighbors, which was the privacy, woods and nature. She understood this was a quaint and <br />desirable neighborhood and she hoped to be able to live in this area too. <br /> <br />Eric Sandard, 3731 New Brighton Road, stated this was a difficult issue for him as there were <br />many moving parts. He explained he was opposed to this proposed project as it was a money- <br />making scheme. He encouraged the City to not let this sway their decision on the matter. He <br />expressed concern with the great loss of trees as well. He discussed the character of the <br />neighborhood and stated the three proposed houses would be out of character as they would be <br />crammed tightly together. For this reason, he recommended the Commission not support the <br />request as it was not in keeping with the character of the neighborhood. <br /> <br />Brian Jorgensen, 1978 Thom Drive, expressed concern with who would be maintaining the <br />basins and stormwater ponds. <br /> <br />Dan Aberg, 3766 Brighton Way North, stated he was concerned with safety along New Brighton <br />Road given the number of homes that have been added to this area of the City. He stated there <br />has been an influx of homes and families, which was making traffic hazardous. He feared how <br />the neighborhood would be impacted by three additional homes. <br /> <br />There being no additional comment Chair Thompson closed the public hearing at 8:47 p.m. <br /> <br />Commissioner Bartel asked if Thom Drive would ever be expanded or widened. <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Polka stated the City did not have plans to widen this <br />roadway as it serves a small number of homes. She reported the City had 50 feet of right-of-way <br />along this street if the roadway needed to be widened in the future. <br /> <br />Chair Thompson questioned if the City had any plans to add trails in this area. <br /> <br />City Planner Bachler indicated the City’s Comprehensive Plan includes a future pathway on <br />New Brighton Road, but that this trail had not yet been budgeted for. <br /> <br />Commissioner Jones expressed concern with the number of wholes in this project, noting the <br />plans were incomplete. He stated he would like to have more information regarding the drainage <br />and stormwater runoff plans. He indicated he also did not approve of the removal of the
