City of CentervilIe November 13, 2002 Council Meeting Minutes Mr. Leon Moran, 1743 Peltier Lake Drive, indicated he is concerned with traffic from the additional homes as well as the big construction trucks carrying heavy loads beating up the roads. Mr. Peterson indicated that there would be road restrictions in effect during the spring and indicated that constmction would begin in the summer. Mr. Moran asked if anybody had an estimate of what the assessments might be. Mayor Swedberg explained that the assessment information would not be available until further along in tbe process. He then gave a base figure of $4,300 as an estimate. Council Member Broussard Vickers indicated that the assessment is completely dependent upon the overall costs of the project. She then commented that residents have paid 50% of the costs not including the new development costs but noted that residents would also be required to pay to get the line to their home as well as a hook up fee of $1,500 when the well fails and the water is connected. Council Member Broussard Vickers further commented that the base dollar amount of the assessment is completely dependent on the cost of the project and could be higher or lower than the $4,300 estimated. Council Member Broussard Vickers asked for clarification on what type of rezoning was requested and noted that PUD was different with different requirements than the rezone to R-2. Ms. Moore-Sykes clarified that the applicant has applied for a PUD and that will be heard in December. Mr. Gonyea indicated they had gotten on the calendar for a PUD in case that is needed to comply with the setbacks in the ordinance. Mayor Swedberg asked for clarification of the PUD. City Attorney Hoeft explained that a PUD overlay on the ordinance means that the requirements of R-2 zoning could be restructured to allow for different setbacks without requiring a variance. Council Member Broussard Vickers commented that PUD was supposed to be used 011 unique properties to accommodate specific, unique situations. She then indicated Eagle Pass was a PUD and was designed to go around creeks and wetlands and said that by its nature, a PUD is supposed to be able to help to preserve unique characteristics of the property. Mr. Gonyea indicated his intent would be to plat the property as three (3) single-family lots with 97 foot building pads as well as the townhomes. He then indicated that Rice Creek Watershed has had the information but the delineation was recently approved and the information given to the consulting engineers for consideration at the November 27, 2002 meeting. He also commented that the piece of land proposed as a park at the end of the road was a suggestion by the Buckbees, but if it does not work for the neighbors he is not committed to doing it.
