Mr. Steffan, applicant, Mike Gair, Planning Consultant, Joe Knoblauch, property owner, and Bob Fein, Engineer were present to answer questions. City Planner Graser commented on this item per memorandum dated August 12, 1982. Mike Gair, Consulting Planner for the applicant, commented on the P.U.D. regarding density, drainage, land use, design, wetlands, trail system, and landscaping. He also presented the Commissioners with exhibits of the P.U.D. in addition to what had been submitted earlier to Staff. The Planning Commission had concern over density and the amount and type of land used in the calculation of density. Additional concerns were drainage, road alignment and sensitivity to adjacent uses. The Commission agreed that the wetland consisting of 2.4 Acres should not be used in the density calculations. The remaining acreage is 15.05 acres taken times 5.5 units for a density of 83 units. Density bonuses will be discussed in detail once revised plans are submitted. The maximum density including bonuses is 105 units. The Commission thought the site plan must reflect more detail especially a landscaping plan but felt the uses were appropriate. Mike Gair made the presentation for the developer explaining site components and the development concept. Motion by Fitzgerald to continue the hearing to September 2, 1982 due to: 1.) provide additional engineering data 2.) provide revised site plan 3.) show drainage easements where provided 4.) meet with the School District to discuss the improvement of Five Hawks Ave. 5.) provide better architectual drawings of the uses 6.) show a stub street to the east, seconded by Felix.

Principal (612) 447 -2178 August 18, 1982 Mr. Horst Graser, City Planner City of Prior Lake Dear Horst: The Prior Lake Public Schools received notice of a public hearing to be held regarding a Planned Unit Development proposed for property adjacent to Five Hawks Elementary School. Such notice was received on August 17, 1982 for a hearing scheduled for August 19, 1982. Because of law and regulation regarding the scheduling of School Board meetings, it would be impossible to obtain the needed input from our Board on the matter prior to the public hearing as scheduled. It is apparent that the project will impact the Five Hawks School site considerably, and therefore we believe that it is of the utmost importance that the School Board review the matter prior to any public herring which would be conducted on the proposal. Therefore, may I formally request that the public hearing be cancelled and rescheduled for some time following September 13, 1982, which is the date when the Prior Lake School Board will hold its next regular meeting. Thank you for your consideration of this important request. Sincerely, Dr. Cy F.
