COUNCIL MEETING APRIL 24, 1995 building lots per year. Mayor Reinert referenced the nine (9) Lino Air Park lots and asked if a homeowners association would be formed for these lots. Mr. Uhde explained that there is an existing homeowners association in place and the Air Park lots will become a part of the existing association with additional rules and by-laws. The new lots will be of a different size and will require stricter covenants. The parcel under the PDO is the only parcel in Behm's Century Farms that will have a homeowners association. Mayor Reinert noted that some associations have been created in the City that have caused problems for the City Council. He said that the City does not want any more of these associations. Mayor Reinert asked Mr. Brixius if he had seen the by-laws that are being proposed for the Lino Air Park lots. Mr. Brixius said no, he has expressed these concerns to Mr. Johnson and has requested that the by-laws and regulations be formally submitted to staff for their review and written opinion. If the City Council approves the first reading of the rezone and PDO request tonight, staff is asking that the plan of action for these lots be submitted and staff provide a formal opinion before the second reading. Mayor Reinert said that he is concerned about how homeowner associations as designed and their impact on the neighborhood. Mr. Uhde said that he understood and pointed out that this particular association is an established association. He said that he is taking a possible existing platted 19 lots that would be part of the homeowners associating and cutting them down to nine (9) lots. He said he will be reducing the size of the association, and overlying additional rules, regulations and disclosures. It is Mr. Uhde's intent to eliminate any further controversies in the future. Mr. Uhde said this organization already exists and he will only be making the regulations for his lots stricter. Mr. Brixius explained that Mr. Uhde will not be creating larger rural lots and staff is concerned about creating a neighborhood rather than just the use of the Air Park. Staff will be looking at rules regarding maximum hangar size, specific location of the hangars, specific statements that the hangars will not be used for commercial or rental use, maximum building heights, no fuel or limited fuel storage, how guest airplanes are going to be treated, limiting the number of airplanes per lot, a green space requirement for each lot, disclosure of the Air Park requirements that currently exist, the Air Park will continue to exist as an operating facility so that the people who purchase lots in the subdivisions beyond the nine (9) Air Park lots will know that this is an on-going operation and the lot that they are buying will be in close proximity to someone who flies airplanes. Another issue discussed by the P & Z Board is the specific location of the joint taxi areas. These areas must be PAGE 11
