I ~~\ ~T ~"., .. I. f_ .', ,'- -, "n . . . '. ,"~"'~~ J ) Plannin2C Commission 1y.!inutes Pa2Ce 5 2/01/95 I Piotrowski noted a few concerns, first, she did not feel the detached garage indicated continuity I in the development. Second, she indicated she was glad to see townhomes being proposed instead of single family homes to help preserve additional trees on the site. Third, Piotrowski indicated I concern that if the pond should rise, units one, two and three would have flooded basements. Mr. Ogren indicated the pond has an outlet to Valentine Lake, under Highway 10. I Carlson directed the applicant to review the issue of the trail maintenance and check on drainage issues and levels. I Rye also indicated concern for flooding. I Chair Erickson encouraged Mr. Ogren to continue communications with Staff. Rye inquired if a wetland delineation had been done. Mr. Ogren indicated a delineation of the I wetland had been done this past fall and a soil composition was taken and there is not a wetland present in the northeast corner of the lot. I- Nelson indicated overall approval of the development, but felt too many homes were still proposed. I Sand indicated that he liked the overall look of the development. He indicated concern also for the detached garage and felt it to be inconsistent with the overall development. Sand encouraged I the developer to resolve the trail issue. He commented that he would like to see a landscape plan regarding a buffer to County road E2, Sand also stated he would like to see a letter from the city engineer regarding the revised plans. Sand noted he did like the look of the island in the cuI-de- I sac. Chair Erickson inquired if there should be a need for rezoning. Mr. Fritsinger indicated after I review of the definitions included in the ordinance, staff believes the R-1 designation to be the most appropriate due to the density and type of development. I Nelson inquired if there are three units per acre, could any townhome development go into an R-1 district. Mr. Fritsinger indicated no, there are variables regarding the density and type of development. Mr. Fritsinger indicated definitions found in Section II, page four, regarding I density zoning were applied in this case. I Sand inquired as to lot lines. Mr" F ritsinger indicated there are no lot lines, although each building will have 24 feet separating each building. I. I
