• May 18, 1984 -3- 10�) Benkler - 484-7885. Don and Rina Benkler live on Sandy Hook Drive, and have a 21,100 sq. ft. lot a'�: the southerly corner of Sandy I-iook Drive and Heinel Drive. This lot is large enough to be divided (an action tlley are considering), Uut the resultant lots would be considerably 5maller than those in the area. Tllus, it is a case where it may be legally permissible t�i do so, but not acceptable in terms of relative scale of lots in the �iicinity. We suggested they discuss tliis with their ne.igllbor.s to ascer�ain relative acceptability, in view of the possible opposition because of the dissimilar size and the result of the lots. 11) Commers, Danny Commers, l�aul Klodt, and Roger Roehr were in to discuss the development and platting of the land south of the Vertimag building. Tliis has been discussed at previous proposals, but is now ready fox sub- mission to the Planning Commission and revie►v of a� preliminary plat, and variances for a propased structure that they cantemplate building to the east of t:�e proposed cul-de-sac to be constructed on the Marabella property. Based on previous conversations with the staff, they are pxoposin� to request the City purchase the lancl for the cul-de-s�c and build the cul-de-sac with the assessments applying to their propertie_�, Vertimag, an�l Reims property to the �ast. Based on staff advice, they p��oceeded to purchase the MaraUella property at $202,000, plus assessments of $5,236. They 1i�ve an arrangement to sell the northerly half (approximate) to Vertimag for $63,000, wliich would � be $56,000 if occurring in the second year. Currently, filie right-of-wa� value will Ue $135,000. David Dro�,m adviseci t}�em to secure a St�tement oi No Objection so as to sp��d up tlte ac�ministrative �rocessin� o£ the public improvement. 12) Goff. Pat Goff was in to di$cuss tlle proposed dev�lopment oi the R-2 zoned land west of the mob�.l� home court. 1+1e had previously discussed this proposal with the applicants, w}lo have now �repared more precise prelimxnary clrawings. The units are contemplata.ng to sell at $80,000, tJlt}1 $85,000 �n the cor�ietr sites, with up to $12,000 each ior optional improvements. The �ite could theoretically acc�mmoclate 24 units (3.4 acre site) w}iic}i would provide 6,243 sn. ft. per unit. We suggested that they mi.gltt �vant to clo less tli�n that so as to make sure there is adequate spac� to produce a�ood internal circul�.Cion and site condita.on. Thc units would be 11,042 sc�o ft. and 12,040 sc�. ft. We suggest�d tliey make the roads 30' in widtl� so as to provicle for additiional parki.ng, rather than building parking bays in parts o£ the si�te. The property is indicated as liigh density multi-family on tlle Compreiiensive Plan, but we recanmerided that the development be clone based on the existi.ng zoning. The curren� proposal p�ovid�s for a 12t" diameter cul-d�-sac ut tlie end of Fernwood, as discussed at previous meetin�s. T}Zey propose the vacation of Rose Place on the soutli �ide of tlie site. It appears that building this section of Rose Place tivatild be difiicuYt to access, inasmuch as neither of the existing cingle-family homes to the south nced �his roadway. � In affsct, �his produces a solution for tlle resiciential ar�a �vliicli involves cul-de--sacing botli Fernwood and Dunlap Street ta the cast. Tliis pattern would appear to work best in terms of establishing a compatible relationstiz,p bet�veen the mobile home court (possibly future commercial), and tlle existing single-
