Planning File 1172 - Janes House request for rezoning from B- 2 to R- 2 and pre- liminary plat at 190 Transit. Presentation Mr. Dahlgren indicated that Mr. House has purchased the Kath property on Rice Street and that he is proposing to rezone a portion of the property on the north side of the pond from B-2 to R-2. The proposal is to plat four R-2 lots. Mr. Dahlgren indicated that Mr. House will be preparing a developrrent plan for the remainder of the property in the future. Discussion Mr. Rukavina cormented that there seems to be rrore duplexes being constructed in the City. He stated he would like to see rrore experinentation in the design of the duplexes so that perhaps they could look rrore like a single family hare. Mr. Eastman, the contractor who is purchasing the property from Mr. House, indi- cated that each unit would have two bedrooms and there would be approximately 1,000 square feet for each unit. Mr. Pat Ryan, 220 Transit, stated that the City did not need rrore duplexes and that he would prefer single family hares on the property. It was pointed out that the property is presently zoned B-2 and could be developed for corrrrercial purposes. Mr. Dahlgren also nentioned that because the property is zoned B-2, the adjacent lot to the west which is zoned R-l and contiguous to Mr. Ryan I s property could have a duplex constructed on it. Janes Stevens, pastor of Roseville Baptist Church, indicated they were concerned about the erosion of the bank area on the pond. Mr. r.t::Guire made the following recorrrcendations: 1. That the City Ponding Easerrent be shown to elevation 952 feet. 2. 'Ihat the Drainage Utl.li ty Easerrent be shown and that the relocated culvert be rerroved from the plat. 3. That a ten foot Drainage Easerrent be provJ.ded between each lot and along the east property line of lDt 4. He also suggested that the erosion prcblem could be handled with temporary stak- ing of straw bales during construction and that rrore permanent bank stabilization could be accorrplished after the construction.
