REZONING & The Mayor opened the public hearing to consider the PRELIMINARY request for rezoning of property from R-1 (Single PLAT - Family Residential) to R-2 (Medium-Density COBBLESTONE Residential) as well as a Preliminary Plat for VILLAGE townhome development known as Cobblestone Village consisting of eighteen (18) to twenty (20) lots to be developed with thirty-six (36) to forty (40) individual townhome units. The Mayor pointed out that the Planning Commission has recommended approval of the rezoning and Preliminary Plat. Scalze pointed out that when the concept of this plat was discussed, Gordie Howe indicated that the value of the individual townhomes would be $130,000 to $150,000 on the west side of the street, and $200,000 on the east side. At the Planning Commission that value was proposed at $130,000 to $170,000. Scalze reported that it was her intention to consider an upscale townhome development. Gordie Howe, Masterpiece Homes, the developer of the project, reported that some of the units will be slab- on-grade, and those would be in the $130,000 price range. The value of these units is lower than originally proposed because the units are slab-on- grade, thus will have less square footaqe. It was originally thought that all units would have basements. Other units will have basements with walkouts and those units are proposed at $175,000 to $200,000. LaValle asked if the townhomes would have brick exteriors.
