He did not know what it was talking 137 about but when it rains heavy the water comes coursing next to his and his neighborsÓ 138 homes. This is not an insignificant problem and aside from the fact that there is 139 something to be said about a legacy neighborhood and he understood something in 140 the Comprehensive Plan about a missing middle but he wondered if this development 141 and five hundred-thousand-dollar twinhomes going to make a response of what is 142 needed. They have been under assault and he understood Edison is seeking a third 143 building off County Road D as well. He thought if the City took all factors under 144 consideration this project is not really in character with this neighborhood. He 145 thought there was something to be said for the character that is low density housing. 146 He wondered if this is the place for this type of development. He indicated he likes 147 the character of the neighborhood and is concerned about the character of the 148 neighborhood could be changing over time. He also wanted to understand better what 149 a bio-filtration BMP plan is because he did not have any confidence that the City has 150 adequately addressed the drainage problems that directly impact their home. 151 152 Chair Kimble closed the public hearing at 7:11 p.m. with no one else wanting to 153 address the Commission. 154 155 Commission Deliberation 156 157 Chair Kimble asked if staff had anyone that could explain what the bio-filtration 158 BMP plan was. 159 160 Mr. Paschke indicated he cannot speak to this directly but indicated he could answer 161 questions related to the stormwater management plan. He indicated this proposal, site 162 development that is required to create stormwater management is not something that 163 is supposed to assist in resolving the issues that are ongoing in this neighborhood. 164 That is a bigger, broader issue that needs to be addressed by this general area. 165 166 Chair Kimble explained this is a preliminary plat and the Commission is looking at 167 the plat against a relatively limited number of requirements. 168 169 Mr. Paschke indicated that was correct and there are somethings that are out of the 170 control of the Planning Commission to address or add conditions to. 171 172 Member McGehee thought there are rights of the citizens and should be represented 173 and she did not think there was much point to the CommissionÓs activity if all the 174 Commission does is look at what the planning staff has combed through very 175 carefully and manicured so that it matches City Code and then give a rubber stamp to 176 that and send it the City Council. She indicated she was not sure that is the best way 177 the Commission can advise the Council or bring things forward because she feels 178 strongly and is very familiar with this neighborhood and she agreed with the people, 179 they are bounded by what she would call a multi-family effort or both New Brighton 180 and St. Anthony Village, which have put all of their stuff right up against the edge. 181 She noted she was on the City Council at the time the Edison project went through 182 and there was a lot of density and a lot of trees were removed and lost along with Page 4 of 35
