COUNCIL MEETING APRIL 24, 1995 Comprehensive Plan Amendment for MUSA Exchange - Council Member Elliott moved to approve the Comprehensive Plan Amendment. Council Member Kuether seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Preliminary Plat Approval - Council Member Kuether moved to approve the preliminary plat with conditions outlined in the staff report dated April 7, 1995. Council Member Bergeson seconded the motion. Mr. Johnson addressed the issue of Lot 18. He did not agree with Mr. Brixius and said he did not feel that this is an "abut" lot. He felt that this lot and the lots on either side of it would face north. Mr. Johnson addressed the temporary cul-de-sac concern raised by Mr. Brixius. He explained that if the City were to require that a full cul-de-sac be installed at the end of the street in the first phase, he would re -locate the cul-de-sac slightly to the south and take two (2) lots platted for the second phase and place them in the first phase. Mr. Johnson addressed the PDO concern and noted that protective covenants have been prepared. He will make these documents available to Mr. Brixius for his review. Mr. Johnson addressed the parkland dedication concern. He noted that he had already presented a plan that will be considered by RCWD in May. If RCWD approves the plan, a trail will be constructed through the wetlands from the east cul-de-sac to the west cul-de-sac to allow access by the new neighborhood to the park area. Mr. Johnson also noted that a transportation trail will be located on the north side of Lilac Street. Mr. Uhde said that he would provide more detail regarding the location of the temporary cul-de-sac and eliminate Lot 18 if that is what the City Council desired. He did note that the City would lose approximately $5,000.00 on fees is Lot 18 were omitted. There was further discussion regarding the location of the cul- de-sac, parkland dedication and the transportation trail on the south end of the subdivision. It was decided to delay action on the preliminary plat until the next Council meeting. Mr. Uhde will send to Mr. Brixius covenant documents for the nine (9) Air Park lots for his review and comment, will prepare a revised preliminary plat for the first phase showing the location of the temporary cul-de-sac, elimination of Lot 18 and, and get a solid recommendation from the Park Board regarding parkland dedication.
