RCA Attachment D Developer Open House Summary for 2986/2994 Old Highway 8 April 28, 2022 I held a zoom meeting open house on the proposed plat for the above-mentioned properties. I have summarized below, pertinent comments directly relating to the project. Paul Talarico: 2954 Old Highway 8. Paul had questions regarding maintenance of the proposed private road. I advised him that an association of some type would be created to maintain the road split amongst the new property owners. He asked about removal/replacement of trees. I advised him about Roseville’s tree preservation plan. His biggest concern was potential water impact on his property, as he has had issues standing water at his property to the south. I advised him that Rice Creek Watershed district actually requires diminished stormwater output (80%). He would prefer to keep the development single-family, not twin homes. Al & Jane Bates: 2980 Old Highway 8. Al & Jane like the “pastoral” setting of the properties and is against development of the rear portions of the two properties. He felt development will destroy the ambiance of the neighborhood. He doesn’t like the idea of potentially having five extra families on the site. He asked about selling some of the land to the City for water control area. Jane felt that the tree preservation plan is “never enforced”. I advised her to the contrary. Brandon Kowal: 2960 Old Highway 8. Brandon is concerned about water issues that he currently has in his own back yard. City solution is to install sump pump into his own electrical system. He wonders if existing City infrastructure can handle the stormwater from proposed plat. I advised him that I am in contact with Jesse Freihammer, Ryan Johnson and the Rice Creek Watershed District regarding the engineering of the stormwater. Kyle & Katie Dille: 2951 Troseth Road Kyle advised others in the group that a developer’s job is to promote development. Concern had been voiced as to what types of homes may be built on the land, not in favor of development. He mentioned that his sump pump is “always running”. Lack of future plan for dwellings puts people on the defensive. Judy Kolby: 3015 Troseth Road Judy was hopeful of development of only one additional lot, facing Old Highway 8. She doesn’t like the idea of houses behind houses and wonders about light pollution. She was hoping for less density, especially in light of the Edison project to the north. She has concerns that Old Highway 8 cannot handle more traffic. She also had question about the removal of trees and the preservation plan. She wondered if the City would require lighting of the private road and if there would be a turn-around. I advised her that City staff would drive those requirements. I advised her that for the development to be economically feasible more than one lot would need to be created. Laurie Starr & Roger Pastwa: 2999 Troseth Road Laurie also indicated a preference for just one additional lot, facing Old Highway 8. I advised her that the two combined parcels would not be wide enough to make three. I explained to her that Roseville has changed zoning rules to allow for developments such as I have proposed. She had concerns about the Page 30 of 35
