MINUTES CITY COUNCIL MAY 28, 1997 COMP PLAN AMENDMENT, REZONING, & PRELIMINARY PLAT — PETRINA PARK TERRACE Scalze opened the public hearing to consider the application for Comprehensive Plan Amendment, Rezoning from Industrial -Park to R -2, and Preliminary Plat for Petrina Park Terrace made by Frank Frattalone for property located north of Pioneer Park and south of Slumberland. Scalze reported that the Planning Commission has recommended approval of the applications contingent upon compliance with the recommendations of the City Planner. Scalze also noted that there are only four Council Members present this evening. A rezoning requires four affirmative votes of the Council, and the applicant has indicated that he would prefer to wait until the full Council is present for action to be taken on his application. Based on that, the Council will hold the public hearing this evening, but table action on the matter until its June 1011' meeting. Frank Frattalone, 3205 Centerville Road, reported that the property has been for sale for 17 years as Industrial -Park property, and has not been sold. Frattalone reported that he contacted Gordie Howe, Masterpiece Homes, to discuss the development of the property with twinhomes. Frattalone reported that he has the property north of Allen Avenue under purchase agreement, and is including it in the proposal. Frattalone reported that there is sanitary sewer and water main in Allen Avenue. However, only half of the required road right -of -way is dedicated. Therefore, he has purchased the property north of Allen and will dedicate the additional right -of -way for the street. Frattalone reported that he has discussed the issue of buffering with Slumberland. Slumberland has an existing berm along their south property line. Frattalone reported that he will work with Slumberland and plant trees on top of the berm to provide screening for the twinhomes proposed in phase two. Frattalone pointed out that phase one will occur south of Allen Avenue. He noted that one twinhome building per cul -de -sac has been eliminated from the proposal. Density is proposed at 5 units per acre, and Frattalone pointed out that the Code allows for 8 units per acre. Drainage issues are being worked out. No variances are being requested, and all required setbacks will be met. Frattalone pointed out that there is a jog in the western end of Allen Avenue. It was necessary to dedicate the full easement from the property on the south of Allen given that the Myers Frattalone property at the northeast corner of Centerville Road and Allen Avenue is not included in the plat.
