Mr. Birch is proposing to increase the <br />density for this area by introducing 254 four (4) and eight (8) <br />unit town homes valued at $90,000.00 to $120,000.00. The value <br />is down from the original proposal of $180,000.00 to $200,000.00 <br />per town home. <br />Mr. Brixius continued that in exchange for the greater density, <br />Mr. Birch would dedicate 300 feet around Lake Amelia as green <br />space. This space would equal roughly 15 acres. Mr. Birch hopes <br />that this green space will satisfy the neighbors. <br />Mr. Schumacher informed the City Council that staff members met <br />this afternoon at 4:00 P.M. to discuss the new proposal. <br />However, staff has not had enough time to analyze the numbers <br />carefully. <br />The City Council was concerned about the increased density as <br />well as the value of the units. <br />Staff was directed to study the proposal further and report back <br />PAGE 1 <br />
