<br />City of Centerville <br />November 13,2002 <br />Council Meeting Minutes <br /> <br />Mr. Gonyea indicated that his development would be required to capture runoff whereas <br />it is currently running directly into the creek and lake. <br /> <br />Mr. Gonyea explained that his townhomes would be slab on grade and geared toward <br />seniors. He then said that the blended density of the parcel would be two (2) units per <br />acre. He further commented that traffic study counts indicate that a single family home <br />generates 9.5 to 10.5 trips per household, condos drop to 5.5 trips per day and senior <br />housing drops to 2.2 to 3.4 trips per day. <br /> <br />Mr. Gonyea commented that the density of the project is reduced by gearing it toward <br />seniors as seniors make fewer trips per day. <br /> <br />Mr. Gonyea commented that he would bear the brunt of bringing the water main in but <br />the City would like to loop the system and assess residents for the benefit. He then said <br />that there is already a sleeve under the creek so the road would not have to be torn up. <br /> <br />Council Member Travis indicated that residents had expressed concern about existing <br />drainage. Mr. Gonyea indicated that Rice Creek Watershed would control all drainage <br />issues and he would have to comply with any requirements to capture runoff and provide <br />ponding. <br /> <br />Council Member Travis indicated residents were concerned that trees would be removed. <br />Mr. Gonyea indicated that the grading on all the single-family lots would be custom <br />graded for the driveway and house to avoid any unnecessary tree removal. <br /> <br />Council Member Travis indicated that the developer could not legally push water onto <br />someone else's property. He then asked Mr. Peterson if he had reviewed the existing <br />drainage. Mr. Peterson indicated he had not yet reviewed the drainage in the area. <br /> <br />Council Member Capra commented that the developer is required to go out 100 feet from <br />the property line. Mr. Peterson referred to the information provided and indicated that <br />tb:ey are out two feet. Mr. Gonyea indicated that he would be required to provide a catch <br />basin or the water would flow up onto the street. Mr. Peterson indicated Ulat a culvert <br />could be added to allow for drainage. <br /> <br />Council Member Travis asked what the home values of the development would be. Mr. <br />Gonyea indicated that the townhome units would range in price from $250,000 to <br />$300,000 and the single-family homes would start at $400,000. <br /> <br />Council Member Broussard Vickers indicated the City would not be taking possession of <br />the outlots and asked whether there would be a homeowners association. <br /> <br />Council Member Nelson indicated she would be okay with the rezoning but is not <br />prepared to vote on the preliminary plat as she feels more information as to the potential <br />environmental impact is needed. <br /> <br />Page 70f29 <br />
