to review the preliminary plan and issue permits that would govern set backs and <br />protection for wetlands. <br /> <br />A resident raised several questions regarding the amount of re-zone requests for the same <br />parcels, amounts of special assessments that would be incurred by near-by residents, the <br />nearest lift stations capacity and the potential need for archeological sample of the <br />proposed area. <br /> <br />Commission Member DeVine stated that a property owner could request re-zoning of a <br />property as many times as they desired; however, it would not be financially practical <br />unless there was an intent to develop or a specific use desired due to the fact that a re- <br />zone request fee is charged. Chairperson Hanson stated that, at a later date, there may be <br />special assessments assessed to properties benefited by the extension of the municipal <br />watermain that would service this new development. However, the Buckbee re-zone <br />request had nothing to do with special assessments and that request would need to be <br />approved by Council prior to preliminary plat consideration. <br /> <br />Public Works Director, Paul Palzer, addressed the resident’s concern regarding the <br />capability of the nearest lift station and its ability to handle the proposed increased <br />development. <br /> <br />Mr. Roger Shimon, 1751 Peltier Lake Drive, questioned whether there would be a <br />holding pond for water run-off and stated concerns regarding possible water problems <br />that the development could cause to neighboring residents and the proposed development <br />if they are not properly addressed. Mr. Shimon also had concerns regarding the proposed <br />developments increased traffic loads and Mill Road’s sharp left turn. <br /> <br />Chairperson Hanson stated that the City’s Engineer would be reviewing the preliminary <br />plat for elevations, watermain extension, etc. and that the Buckbees would need the <br />proper permits from the RCWD which would address water run-off, pond, etc. <br /> <br />Another resident had concerns regarding setbacks from the creek and channel, water run- <br />off and lake conditions and whether or not the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) <br />would have input about this proposed development. <br /> <br />Chairperson Hanson stated that RCWD would need to review the preliminary plat and <br />make recommendations and issue permits for set backs from the wetlands, channel, lake, <br />ponding and run-off issues. <br /> <br />Ms. Susan Seeley, 1784 Peltier Lake Drive, had concerns regarding the special <br />assessments that may be levied against her property and questioned whether there was an <br />estimate of what they might be. <br /> <br />Chairperson Hanson again stated that the special assessments would be addressed at a <br />later date and estimates were not available. <br /> <br />Page 2 of 5 <br />
