n THPTgc Planning commission March 3, 19:23 Heather Oaks Mr. McKenzie reported that they were before the Planning Commission a year ago with the proposal, but due to economics did not pursue it at that time. A year ago the Commission was concerned with the cul de sac proposed, and this has been eliminated by a continuous through drive. The commission also was concerned with the proposed 24 mat for the street. This has now been changed to a 30 foot pavement. Also a hydrant is proposed for the center of the street with additional hydrants at each end. The development will consist of 15 duplexes, or 30 units, each with tuck under garages and partial basements. The units can be either two or three bedroom and some of the units will be walk —outs. Mr. McKenzie reported that the walls will be 1 hour rated construction and two by six studs. There will also be a VA wall between the units. The units will meet the minimum property standards of the FHA. The purchase price will be approximately $112,000 per unit. Wood siding is planned for the units with gabled roofs. Mr. Costa asked if the buildings will look alike. McKenzie replied that this is still being worked on. Most of the differences will be in the topography of the sites. Mrs. Timmons asked if there would be a homeowners association. Mr. McKenzie replied that there would. Timmons asked about outdoor storage. McKenzie replied that there will be no outdoor storage allowed and no additional structures allowed. Also the garages will be two —car and there will be space in the driveways for two additional cars. Mr. McKenzie reported that of the site 48% is buildable and 52% un- buildable or wetland. This portion will be the common property of the Homeowners Association. Mrs. Timmons asked if the developer was opposed to dedicating a drainage easement. McKenzie teplied that they were not. They also will indicate that no additional development can take place on the 52% of unbuildable property. Mrs. Kingsbury asked what is going to be done about noise. Mr. McKenzie replied that nothing will be done. The people buying the units will he aware of the situation with the highways when buying the units. Mr. McKenzie commented that the Planner has made a statement that the units are less than 30 feet apart, and that this is what is required under P11D guidelines. McKenzie reported that it is only a one —store entry —way projection on each unit that is 20 feet apart. Page —5—
