Presentation Dahlgren summarized the past actions relating to this amendment and the goals of the plan. Dahlgren presented slides outlining the location of the redevelopment area, surrounding land uses, major features and constraints. Dahlgren discussed the reaction from the surrounding residential neighborhood at the previous neighborhood meeting, and highlighted the Langton Lake Park plans, proposed traffic changes, the proposed land use plans and the various alternative plans which have been explored in the past. Dahlgren outlined an alternative land use plan which provided more office warehouse type uses and considerable less multi-family apartment uses in the area and which left the existing single family dwellings on the south side of County Road C-2. This alternative was developed in response to concerns expressed by the residential neighborhood north of the redevelopment area. Maschka inquired what the feasibility of providing townhouses where office warehouse is shown on the plan north of Terrace Drive. Dahlgren responded that the high cost of acquiring the land may preclude that option. Waldron added that intense development would be needed to offset costs that his studies indicated that if property could be acquired for six to seven dollars per sq. ft. it might work, but if the office warehouse buildings had a good cash flow, land costs might be in the $20.00 - $30.00 sq. ft. range which would make redevelopment difficult.
