Present at the meeting ware Commissioners Warmka, Johnson, Arnold, Fitzgerald, Wilker, Councilman Bissonett and City Planner Graser. Motion was made by Arnold to approve the minutes of the January 17,1980 Prior Lake Planning Commission meeting, seconded by Johnson. Upon a vote taken, the motion was duly passed and the minutes were approved as published. Item I - Thelon 1st Addition - Concept. Mr. Thelen was not present at the meeting. Mr. Dave Ryan of Valley Engineering was present to answer questions. City Planner Graser gave a presentation to the Commission noting that the subject plat consists of 2.04 acres and is zoned R -1. Sewer and water is available to the site via a line on Oakland Beach Avenue. The subject parcel is fronted by Kneafsey's Street, Oakland Beach Avenue and Trunk Highway 13. Major concern of the Commission members was the driveway access to Lot 5 from Oakland Beach Avenue, it was there feeling that this access should be relocated possibly from Kneafsey's Street if feasible. Motion was made by Warmka to give concept approval of this plat but would prefer to see the pan handle driveway of Lot 5 moved to go across the top of Lot 4 to connect with Kneafsey's Street if this is feasible, seconded by Arnold. Upon a vote taken, the motion was duly passed. Item TT, Fd Ri",Ic'nna c=ccpt discussion was called to order. Mr. Birdsong was present to ans.aer questions. Planner Graser made a presentation to the Commission noting that Mr. Birdsong is proposing to develop Lots 30 through 36 of Candy Cove Park. The subject property is zoned R -1. Mr. Birdsong would like to put single family homes, townhouses or condominiums or a combination of all of these on this property. Mr. Birdsong stated that he would like to know what the Planning Commission members felt would be best for this piece of property from a planning standpoint. After discussion among the Planning Commission members, it was their feelings that this piece of property would best be developed with common wall townhouses with a zero lot line. This would require a Conditional Use Permit under the present zoning_. Also because the Commission Members would like this to remain under the present zoning the amount of density would be 3.5 units per acre. (612) 447 -4230 4629 DAKOTA STREET S.E.
