MINUTES CITY COUNCIL FEBRUARY 22, 2017 could potentially be developed, and it would not be removed from the plan. He noted that if the project got to the platting stage, that is when the ghost lots would be removed and another public hearing process occurs. Torkelson asked how the development by the Lincoln Group would affect the City's plans for the connection to the Cherry Hill development or for the Himmelbach property. The City Administrator explained that when Cherry Hill Lane went in, the long term plan was to connect Cherry Hill Lane with Kohlman Lane, but there are other properties that need to be included for that to occur. He noted that in an ideal world, this area would all be developed together, but the City has no control over that. The City Planner asked the Council if the updated plan should go back to the Planning Commission for review of this revised plan, and how much more work should the developer do on this updated plan, and what other information would the Council want to see. Keis asked if the property would need to be rezoned to PUD in order to have the smaller lots. The City Planner stated that it would likely end up being a Planned Unit Development since the City does not have a zoning designation for smaller single family lots. Fischer stated that the Council should first determine if the 55 foot wide lots are acceptable before sending this plan on for more review. The Council agreed that this should go back to the Planning Commission to review the updated plan, and the developer should provide sketches of the house style and how the layout would look. Upon motion by McGraw, seconded by Fischer, the public hearing was closed. PURCHASE OF A Tim Boss, Assistant Fire Chief explained that there was a committee that NEW PUMPER worked on the pumper truck proposal.
