Request by CPDC for Preliminary Plat Approval{Trott Brook Farms), Case No.' <br /> ...: P 97-8 <br /> Terry Maurer, City Engineer, indicated that city staff and the developers have <br /> come to an agreement on all issues except one regarding density of the <br /> townhomes in the southwest corner of the plat. The issues that have been <br /> resolved are as follows: <br /> -The number of lots less than 80' wide have been reduced from 47 to 14 <br /> -The right-of-way issue has been resolved <br /> -The 32' wide public street issue <br /> - Number and size monument signs have been reduced <br /> Terry indicated the developer has proposed to reduce the number of townhomes <br /> located in the southwest corner by 4 units (2 eight plexes reduced to six plexes). <br /> Staff proposes the total number of these units be reduced from 156 to 144 in order <br /> to create more open space. <br /> Ed Hasek of Westwood Professional Services, presented a graphic which he felt <br /> illustrated the desired increased open space and reduction in density. <br /> Commissioner Cote indicated he felt the density was still to high. A discussion <br /> followed regarding the density of the townhomes. <br /> Chair Mesich opened the public hearing. <br /> John Kuester, Park & Recreation Commission representative, expressed his <br /> concern that the proposed park should be larger, and was concerned the <br /> wetlands in the park and adjacent to it will increase in size over time. He <br /> suggested filling of some of the wetlands be considered. <br /> There being no other comments from the public, Chair Mesich closed the public <br /> hearing. <br /> Terry Maurer, City Engineer, indicated he did not feel the Wetlands Tech Panel <br /> would look favorably on filling of wetlands to create more park land. <br /> Commissioner Morris questioned why the developers have not reduced the <br /> number of townhome units to meet the Planning Commission's request. <br /> Ed Hasek indicated the developers will be working with staff between now and <br /> the City Council meeting on August 3rd to further address this issue. <br /> COMMISSIONER COTE MOVED THE PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMEND <br /> APPROVAL OF THE REQUEST BY CONTRACTOR PROPERTY DEVELOPER'S COMPANY <br /> FOR REZONING, PUBLIC HEARING CASE NO.
