Members present were Chairman Bissonett, Jobst, Houts, Tercero, Thorkelson and Councilman Watkins. Also present were Mayor Stock, Councilman Williams, and Administrative Assistant Sullivan. Members absent were Stack & Walker. Chairman Bissonett called the meeting to order, then temporarily adjourned the Planning Commission meeting to hold a public hearing on the Planned Unit Development, ^The Trees", presented by Robert Kramaruzuk, representative of Alpha Plus. After a brief presentation by Mr. Robert Kramarezuk, the Hearing was opened to the public for their opinions. Mrs. Marlis Bluedorn introduced herself as the owner of the property on which this Planned Unit Development would be built. There being no other citizens to give their opinions, the he aring was opened to the Planning Commissioners and City Officals. 0 Councilman Williams asked Mr. Kramarezuk how many access roads there were to Hwy. 13 and about the number of anticipated automobiles. Mr. Kramarczuk stated that there was one access road to Hwy. 13, which was Killebrew Dr., and the tu=ber of anticipated automobiles would be approximately 52. Mr. Sullivan corrected Mr. Kramarczuk on the size of the Planned Unit Development as being an area of 5 acres instead of 7 acres, as orginally stated, because the P.U.D. excludes Killebrew Dr. but includes the interior street. Mr. Watkins commented that the five acre site barely qualifies as a Planned Unit Develop— ment, but the number of units proposed is slightly less than the maximum permitted. The density of this P.U.D., if zoned Rrl, would qualify for a Conditional Use Permit. Mr. Tooker's memorandum was read aloud by Assistant Administrator Sulli van. Several comments followed. Mr. Jobst had a question concerning open space in the proposed P.U.D. (The Trees), would this land be dedicated to the City or protected by covenants. Mr. Kramarczuk answered, the open space or recreation area would be owned and maintained by the Trees Association, except for the street which would be built according to Prior Lake specifications and de— dicated to the City of Prior Lake. Mr. Bissonett had a question about the utility layout and the tentative development schedule. M (1) THE CENTER OF LAKE COUNTRY Planning Commission Minute. August 15, 1976. "rage #2 Mr. Kramarczuk answered, that 6 units would be built right away and that the street would be put in right away, also that the utility layout was in the process of being worked out although they would Like some kind of approval before they got too involved in this. One other comment made by Mr. Ki- amarczuk was that City water and sewer could be available relatively quick because it is already along the access road. Mr. Kramarczuk r.eie it clear that some of these units would be rentals and some would be sold. Mayor Stock askew if the Trees Association would have a set of restrictions or covenants? Mr. Kramarezuk stated that they had a set of restrictions which Emmett Knox would deliver to the Planning Commission. Mr. Thorkelson questioned the parallel parking. Is there sufficient parking space. Mr. Kramarezuk pointed out that each unit had a double garage, so along with these three extra parallel parking spaces for quest, there should be adequate parking space. Mr. Jobst and Mr. Tercero questioned the row housing in this proposed P.U.D. and the sett--'.g of precedence for future P.U.D.`s Mayor Stock and Councilman Watkins stated that they didn't think this would set precedence because each future P.U.D. would have to come before the Planning Commission and work with the City of Prior Iake to see what density, what type of housing, etc. would be best for th Lr P.U.D. Also, if all they were worried about was setting precedence, then Mitchel Pond woul have already set this precedence.
