IN a inirafi,live <br /> IIS„,leltheir, ll!!:.Stll ates <br /> After all the iterations that this project has gone through, including public <br /> hearings, planning commission, city council and meetings with Rice Creek <br /> Watershed staff and the Army Corp we have heard some concerns. These include <br /> through streets, wetland impact, trail connection and backyard sizes on some of <br /> the homes. To address those concerns we have come up with a plan that will <br /> minimize the wetland impact and eliminate any concerns with backyards and <br /> creeping into the wetlands in the future. There is a very popular community that <br /> is being built all over the metro and gaining a lot of popularity for what they are <br /> calling the "Active Living Style Homes". These homes are for people who want <br /> the privacy of a home with no attached walls but do not want the maintenance of <br /> lawn care and snow removal or any other maintenance that goes with standard <br /> single family lots. Sharper homes has committed to building detached <br /> t on 60X40 foot pads. These will be high end t that will <br /> range in value from $400-475,000. The private street allows us to move the <br /> homes closer to the street and soften the impact on the wetlands, it also creates <br /> a small private setting for people who want to live in Centerville. This plan will <br /> I eave Bryan Drive as a cul-de-sac street with a timber trail across the wetland to <br /> provide access fort s rs to the public park system. There will be an <br /> association created with specific language protecting the wetland boundaries and <br /> maintenance of the grounds which will all be common space. The watershed <br /> district is in favor of this plan as it ensures protection of the wetlands and creates <br /> more of a buffer between the wetlands and the homes. We hope you will agree <br /> that this product better fits the land and addresses the issues and concerns of <br /> everyone. The density is well below any normal single family development at <br /> 1.33 homes per acre. The city will also benefit from the taxes and not have to <br /> maintain or plow the private drive. <br /> 30 <br />
