Ms. Manske also indicated that this PUD is in fact smaller than the one Mr. Johnson had proposed. Marlin Hutchinson, Barthel, indicated that Zack Johnson's report indicated initially a gross leasible area of approximately 101,000 square feet. Barthel is at 95,000 gross leasible area. This is slightly smaller. Chairman Tracy asked what the acreage of the shopping center would be. Mr. Hutchinson indicated that the shopping center itself, including Sections H and J, which are reserved for expansion of the grocery store, is 12.5 acres. With- out the expansion space, it is almost 10 acres. Parcel A is about 10 acres. He further indicated that Barthel has proceeded along the lines that the City has planned for. The City's study determined where the site for the shopping center should be, they (the City) proposed the connecting road and the size.

Mr. Hutchinson indicated that they plan to plant 1/2" to 2~" diameter decidous trees. Carniverous trees would probably be 5". He also indicated that the trees presently there are serving as a barrier and would be left there. Julie Hipp asked who would take care of the trees, expecially if they died. Mr. Hutchinson stated that he thought the land otvuer would take care of them. Rick Breezee indicated that this point would be taken care of at the time after the final plat is approved and a developer's agreement is entered into. Gary Santwire asked if this project will be totally self-supporting. Will the development pay for its O\VTI improvements, site work, how will it all be assessed against the property or are they suggesting some type of bonds to do that. Rick Breezee felt that at the concept phase, Barthel Construction has asked for one type of financing and that a while back, they asked for IRE's. However, at this time, this is a preliminary procedure, and we are looking only at the land use and that the question of financing cannot be asked or answered. Neither the staff nor the Commission knows about financing yet. He indicated that everyone will be notified how this will be accomplished at the proper time. Commissioner Pearce indicated that all this would be included in the final PUD.
