CITY OF CENTERVILLE CITY COUNCIL MEETING NOVEMBER 26, 1996 Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, the City Council of the City of Centerville held a regular council meeting and workshop on November 26, 1996, at the City Hall. Mayor Tom Wilharber called the meeting to order at 5:00 PM. PRESENT: Tom Wilharber MaryJo Helmbrecht Sanna Buckbee Laura Powers- Rasmussen Theresa Brenner STAFF /CONSULTANTS: Jim March Greg Hellings Ry -Chef Gaustad David Nyberg Paul Palzer WORKSHOP 5 :00 PM Mike Black of Royal Oaks Realty was present to discuss a new sketch plan for the Hensel/Leroux property. Black explained Marcel Eibensteiner was the owner of Royal Oaks Realty, Inc, and they have been developing elite homes since 1977 in the metropolitan area. Black gave his background as a graduate of Mankato State University then working for several municipalities and now works with Royal Oaks as a planner. Black explained Marcel has entered into a purchase agreement with Mr. Goertz, but Mr. Goertz would be building in the development. Black presented three sketch plans, two with a looping road, which would not connect Centerville Road. One sketch plan would connect Centerville Road. Black felt the looping roads would provide a warmer atmosphere whereas, Centerville Road would be a dead end, close to the development. Black projected the homes would range from $160,000.- $175,000 to over $200,000. The proposed project would be called Lakeland Hills. Royal excavating more than likely would be doing the ground movement, although Glen Rehbein has done the grading plans. The average lot size would be around 15,000 sq. ft. Wilharber had spoke to John McClellan from the Centerville Elementary School and they were not in favor of a through road. Wilharber was not in favor of condemning property. March questioned the standard restrictive covenant.
