Staff vindicated that infermwtion supplied by the petitioner indicates two different figures for the ar!lount of ponding and wetlands; and this is significant since in recent RPUD concept plan approvals, the City Council has directed that the density calculation be exclusive of ponding and wetland areas.Staff';' stated that the Commission should recommend a specific density or a basis for calculating density.. S J Planning Comm im fission meeting - - August 8 1979 Commissioner Barron arrived. Chairman Schneider stated concerns that the concept plan should review street access from the east since the Council had given direction that area circulation should be a concern with any new development. Commissioner Aire stated that in formulating the density calculation, the Commission could review the bonus point assignments found in Section 9 of the Zoning Ordinance. He stated that he felt only one point rather than four, as suggested by staff, wtas assignable for project size if the wetland area were excluded. Chairman Sctmneider opened the public informational hearing and recognized Mr. John Uban, representing the petitioner, t`t' e and Mr. Harlan Peterson and Mr. Dave Peterson. e n r Mr. Uban stated the;oetitioner would prefer to have the density calculated on a grass basis; he stated that if the specific wetland areas were to be excluded, that area would be something less than indicated since the concept pian showed proposed wetland's rather than specifically that area at or under the established high mater mark. He requested the Commission to look at the project as a whole, and to consider granting th> owner "compensation" for wetland areas which were effectively put to the public good; he stated it was essential. ;:o RPUD development that "proper incentives" be presented to the developer. Mr. Uban presented graphics and e).plained the development concept, he stated that it was the peti'ioner"s intent to i,elocate trees from the east side to the west mire of the project. he indicated that the project would be staged and that Phase l would consist of 90 units, which was less than the established utility capacity for the property at the preser.. time. Staff presented slides of the area and discussion ensued about existing and proposed vegetation; existing and proposed grading; and the type of units proposed. Comrmraissioaer Threinen recalled that the northwest corner of the site had been filled with poor material at the time of the County Road 18 excavation; this was confirmed by Chairman Schneider. Commissioner Threinen also discussed traffic and stated that the property could not be developed as an island and that cir- culation must be taken into account. Mr. Uban noted that an easement for roadway purposes had been provided at the southeast: corner of the property in consideration of the location of existing trees and the existing topography. He stated the plan could be adjusted further to provide access to the east. Commissioner Threinen inquired as to the statements in the concept proposal about sewer eapacity* staff indicated that a City engineering repo% had been prepared as to capacity of the sewer and water for this area, andthis 'information uetermined the number of units which could be served pending -further installation of utilitie,. Commissioner Barron stated' concern with the variety of housing types, and Mr. Uban explained that the bulk of the units were quadraminums, and the rest were town- houses and duplexes. Mr. Uban stated that the approximate price range would start in the mid -x,50,000 and the size of the basic unit would be approximately 1,100 4o 1,200 square feet. Commissioner Wire stated concern with the "fourth phase" in the northeast corner of time pvoject which appeared to overlap into other land. He stated the project should show full development within its own boundaries although the type of land uses adjacent, as well as access, were important considerations. Planing Commission Meeting August S, 1979 Commissioner Eagleton inquired whether the site would: be cortside)ed developable if only 50 percent of it were free of severe physical constraiots as, indicated by the ponding areas and the northwest corner which" was filled with peat. Mr. Uban stated that the petitioner would need more precise data, especially soils information, and that it might he nec.assary to relocate units, Mr. David Peterson explained that they, had purchased the land approximately fifteen years ago; and in response to a question by Commissioner Threinen acknowledged that they had been aware of the peat in k."e northwest corner. Concerns were voicedregarding the proposed building set)acks especially at the south end, from the railroad right-of-way. Chairmao Schneider requested the petitioner to further explain and justify the Planned Unit Development request based on the oruinance 61teria including the provision for open space. Mr. Uban comented as to the intended preservation of trees, the use of the natural terrain, and the use of the wetland and ponding areas for drainag< as well as for aesthetic purposes. Commissioner Wire stated that, in his judgment, the fourth attribute regarding recreation facilities was not apparent with this development. Mr. George Meister, 5415 Zachary Lane, commented as to the terrain and stated concern with preserving terrain, features near the proposed entrance at 53rd Avenue. Fr; Uban 'responded that petitic::::r was aware of the terrain features and had designed the entrance to be compatible with 7t.. Mr. Meister also stated concerns regarding water 4rainage of the area and suggested that it could be very problematical for area residents if it were not engineered properly. Mr. John Hopkins, 5509 Woodal e Avenue South, stated be owned the adu acen : 'land and concurred with the need for future access to the east. Shirley Zachman 5235 Arrowood.t.ane, stated concerns retarding area traffic congestion eTpecially at the intersection of County Roads 9 and 10 with Zachary Lanae.

Staff explained that the site was .92 acre in area and that there were a number of deficiencies on the subritt-d plan with respect to yard setbacks and lack of paving in the outside storage area. Discussion ensued relative to the provisions of the Engineer's memorandum and staff noted that extending utilities to the site would be an extensive undertaking physically and financially. Chairman; Schneider recognized Mr. Jeff taster who stated his partner, Mr. Gerberding was unable to attend the meeting but had handled the matter up to that point. Referen4e was made to petitioner's July 18, 1979 letter acid Mr. Master acknowledged that there were a number of ordinance deficiencies on the plan.

Master stated a variance would be preferred on the rear (east) lot line to allow ten feet setback; the petitioner would prefer not to pave the rear outside storage area because of the nature of the turning movements the heavy trucks would make thereby damaging the asphalt surface. Chairman Schneider asked Mr. Master whether he was seeking to defer consideration of the item and the response was affirmative. Chairman Schneider noted that a public hearing had been scheduled and recognized Ms. Jean Johnson, 1020 Nathan Lane, and Ms. Merna Salmon, 9818 10th Avenue North.

Staff indicated that the Commission should carefully review the provision for large vehicle parking since experience in the City to date indicated freeway uses without such parking had numerous problems with automobile parking stalls being taken by large vehicles and with off-site parking.

Chairman Schneider announced that a public hearing had been scheduled and fie recognized Mr. Don Olson of WRC li,,vestment Company. Mr. Olson stated that the site design as presented was carefully thought out and that it was believed the large vehicle narking on the north edge of the site would be satisfactory since the use is not oriented toward truck operators. Mr. Olson stated he concurred with staff's recominenda-tions 'relative to landscaping and sizes of trees; he noted the berming around the building at various locations and stated he did not see a problem with additional landscaping on the west side. Mr. Olson explained the provision for trash disposal facilities on the east side of the building; staff read the ordinance requirements for such facilities stating that they raust be enclosed and covered utilizing materials compatible with the main structure. Mr, Olson stated some concern with that requirement and the Commissioners suggested that a trash disposal area could be covered and yet have an opening below the roofline for purposes of ventilation. Staff confirmed that "Wumerous commercial establishments in the City with proper trash enclosures are able to operate them effectivel11v. Chairman Schneider asked Mr. Olson to comment as to the proposed signs and Vr- Olson indica-11-ed that the sign proposed for the south elevation would be as shown but that permission was sought to have an additional sign above the entrance using a small Holiday Inn logo.
