Joel Cooper, Ground Development Engineer, stated it would be relatively easy to connect the driveways to the cul-de-sac. Mr. Mike Carter, 6913 Sumac Court, expressed his concern for increased traffic on � Center Street. He suggested stubbing in a road to the south of the development to help alleviate traffic when the property to the south develops. � Mr. Wes Schoeberlein, 6906 Centerville Road, expressed concern for traffic on Center Street and for access to his driveway. Mr. Schoeberlein expressed displeasure for the comments of the developer at the last meeting concerning the threat to leave town without putting the development in should the developer not obtain approval by mid- December. Council Liaison Broussard Vickers questioned the elevation difference between Du re p Road and the property to the south. Mr. Cooper stated he believed it to be approximately � two (2) feet. Council Liaison Broussard Vickers stated that there may need to be some type of retaining wall to prevent erosion due to the elevation differences. Mr. Cooper clarified that the elevation of Dupre Road was in front of the tree line which abuts the property to the south. There should not be a problem as the grade will not change along the property line. Mr. Lundblad questioned the quantity of traffic Centerville Road is able to handle. Mr. March indicated Centerville Road currently has approximately 6,000 trips per day and is designed to handle 10,000 trips per day.

Mr. March indicated he had discussed this with Mr. Cooper who agreed turn lanes may be needed and indicated that if the County determines the turn lanes are required the developer will add them at the developer's expense. Chairperson Hanson expressed concern for the size of Lots 15, 16 and 17 in Block 1. Mr. March indicated a minimum width requirement of 80 feet is needed for home construction.

March indicated that there is no minimum width requirement for lots within a PUD development. ; Mr. Carter expressed concern that the trail way ends at Dupre Road and residents would have to walk along the road to connect with the other side of the trail way.
