- . lond area in the preliminary plat as approved was 409/620 square feet. In the process of surveying the lend in the field for the preparation of the final plat, this land a'ea may hove chC71ged. The applicant should be questiooed as to whether or not the new la"d area is sufficient to meet the lQ'ld oreo as calculated. If not I the nllmber of IInits could simply ~ adjusted to confOfm (or 0 vuriance would be requl'ed). 4. In general, we suggest that the lo'ger structure adiusted to the site as the larger $Cole drawings wi II show I constitute a desirable development proposal. The structure is designed by the Hodne/Stogeberg Partners; is well done, Q'ld will constit.ste 0 desirable auet to the area OI"ld the Villoge as a whole. Directly south of the center of this slle there is a Village park, which was inte- grated into the enhre site deSign in the I!'itiol proposal in 1967. A substantial pelftion of the property in question. conSIsting of opproximotely the weshtrly ene- quarter of tne area, is proposed to be integrated with the existing village park property. It is highly deSIrable that this be d~e inasmuch as this weUtrly q.,;crter of the R-3A property COl1tainS 0 !'ice pond Q'ld tree area wh!d should logIcally I:e a part of the overall open space," the a'ta. This open space is being used as a part of the density calculations in or'lv;rg at the 207 units proposed. Discussing the handling of this open space with the apphCa1t, ".e indicotes his desire to be able to develop this ICI'Id so that it would constitute a real aestheti.: asset. AFt.r this has been done the applicant sllsgests that the lCl'ld might be given to the Village either by easement Of fee title for ~he purpose of making it a permanent part of the overall park. Though the Vi II age then becomes re1pOr'lsible for the maintenCl'lce d this area, we suggest that it would represent 0 real public asset to the area as much or more so thm other publiC parks in the Village To make this work the best, it is important that bath parks be rOloghgraded at the same time during th development stage. At the time the overall plQl"s ....e/O accepted, the applicant agreed verbally ta accomplish this jOint gfodirg so os to achieve the maximum desirable effect.
