COUNCIL MINUTES May 13, 2013 DRAFT 4 136 City Planner Larsen explained that the project is a residential subdivision project that originally came 137 to the city in 2006 proposed by Integra Homes. With the economic downturn, the project was not 138 developed as planned but has not been picked up by a different developer, Schwieters Investments of 139 Lino Lakes, LLC. This is a conservat ion devel opment with 31 lots and six out lots. Resolution No. 140 13 -56 would amend the 2006 resol ution that approved the preliminary PUD to change the language 141 regarding maintenance of rain gardens since it has been determined that the small rain gardens 142 wo uldn’t work well. Mayor Reinert confirmed that the rain garden agreement included a fund set up 143 to cover maintenance costs; what is the status of that fund? Ms. Larsen explained that there was no 144 money in the fund at this point. Mayor Reinert noted the location of the development (off Holly 145 Drive) and lauded the addition of this conservation development. The mayor did ask about the impact 146 of a future development that could cause new residents to drive through this area; he’d like to see that 147 dealt with up front. Staff indicated that a sign would be installed about any new development. 148 149 Council Member Roeser moved to approve Resolution No. 13 -56 as presented. Council Member 150 O’Donnell seconded the motion.

She indicated the plans on an overhead projection. She pointed out the amenities 154 (trails, conservation areas). There will eventually be a full conservation management plan associated 155 with the development. The Planning and Zoning Board recommends approval of the resolution which 156 includes many of the expectations and requirement s attached to the approval. Council Member 157 Roeser asked if the city has received any comments from neighbors to the development.
