. . . Planning Commission Minutes May 27, 2003 Page 2 Planner Chris Leeseberg stated that he spoke with a resident with concerns regarding the possibility of the detention pond overflowing. He noted that City Engineer T eny Maurer has stated that a culvert will be installed to prevent the pond from overflowing. Chair Pederson opened the public hearing. Ed Crawford, 10401 209th Avenue, property owner to the east of the proposed plat, asked if a turn lane would be required, and if so, how long it would be and when it would be constructed. Mr. Crawford stated that he was concerned that cars would end up near his home if a driver went off the road. Chair Pederson stated that the turn lane would be constructed when the plat was developed. Mr. Harlicker stated that turn lanes are typically constructed within the County right-of-way and should not impact Mr. Crawford's property. Jim Brown, representing the applicant, explained that the County may not require a turn lane with the revised design. Chair Pederson reviewed the County's recommendations in the letter dated March 4, 2003, regarding relocation of the neighbors' driveways to the east. Mr. Brown stated that based on recent conversations with the County, this condition may not be required until Phase 2. Mr. Harlicker noted that the City typically accepts the County's requirements. There being no further public comment, Chair Pederson closed the public hearing. Chair Pederson asked what would happen if Mr. Crawford did not agree to having his driveway relocated. Mr. Harlicker stated that the City Council will not give their approval until all conditions are met. Commissioner Offerman asked for clarification on Item #4 in the City Engineer's memo regarding the the .02-acre parcel near the intersection with County Road 33. Mr. Brown stated that this item will be clarified before final plat review. Commissioner Lemke stated that since Mr. Crawford's house was approximately 300 feet from the proposed Olson Street, the turn lane would be tapered away by the time it reached the Crawfords' house and they should not be impacted.
