<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />City Council Minutes <br />October 1, 1984 <br />Page Four <br /> <br />Councilmember Schuldt indicated that the rezoning of the property to a planned unit <br />development would not automatically accept the site plan as originally proposed. <br /> <br />Councilmember Duitsman indicated that in the City Council's work session, the <br />Council determined that a commercial site at the corner of Elk Hills Drive and <br />Highway #169 would not be acceptable and further indicated that the City Council <br />also determined that it would require thru streets to Highway #169 on the northern <br />edge of the planned unit development. <br /> <br />Councilmember Gunkel indicated that she could appreciate the apprehension of the <br />Elk Hills residents regarding planned unit developments. Councilmember Gunkel <br />further indicated that she felt the only way to retain the beauty of the property <br />was to allow the development through a planned unit development process. Council- <br />member Gunkel indicated that with the present zoning, the City Council can only <br />stipulate the maximum density and further indicated that through a planned unit <br />development zone, the City Council can place other controls. <br /> <br />Councilmember Engstrom indicated that in the City Council's committee session the <br />City Council expressed their concerns of traffic flow in the area. Councilmember <br />Engstrom further indicated that the City Council would require roads to go through <br />Highway #169 on the northern edge of the development. Discussion was carried on <br />regarding the proposed concept of the development with regard to the cul-de-sacs, <br />roads and entrances into the area. <br /> <br />Mayor Hinkle opened the public hearing. <br /> <br />The City Administrator indicated that the concerns of the Elk Hills Residents would <br />be considered and the developers would develop a concept that would be consistent <br />with those concerns. Mr. Larry Toth indicated that the City Council could still <br />maintain the controls necessary through the preliminary plat process. <br /> <br />Mr. Cliff Lundberg requested that the City Council consider the maximum density <br />to be compatible to the Elk Hills development. Mr. Lundberg further indicated <br />that in the Elk Hills development, there are two units per acre. The City Admin- <br />istrator indicated that the Elk Hills development is zoned R-lc and therefore, could <br />be developed at a higher density than what is currently in place. <br /> <br />Mr. Larry Toth indicated that the density in an R-lc zone for unsewered property is <br />3 units per acre. Councilmember Schuldt indicated that the area has been assessed <br />for interceptor sewer, and therefore, will be developed with sewer. <br /> <br />General discussion was carried on regarding the requirement of sewer in the develop- <br />ment. <br /> <br />Councilmember Duitsman indicated that at the time of the sewer interceptor assess- <br />ment, it was the consensus of the City Council that the City develop from the core <br />area outward and therefore, specific areas were assessed for the sewer interceptor <br />as it was planned that these areas would be sewered when developed. Mr. Larry Toth <br />indicated that he was also on the City Council at the time of the sewer interceptor <br />assessment and further indicated that he felt it was not the intent of the City <br />Council at that time to cram houses on a particular area to pay for the interceptor. <br />Mr. Toth indicated that the concept proposed by the Pollacks showed an average of <br />
