Planning&Zoning Board <br /> June 10, 1998 <br /> Page 4 <br /> The City would like to see a rough concept to tie together all the property for future <br /> development. <br /> Chair Schaps indicated he did not think that request was unreasonable. <br /> Mr. Kerber stated that if he does not know where roads will be developed he cannot <br /> present the entire site plan. <br /> Chair Schaps stated that he should then acquire all property before presenting a site plan. <br /> Mr. Kerber stated that if he had some direction from the City he could present a site plan. <br /> Mr. Corson asked if the applicant presented a ghost plat that would be acceptable to the <br /> City. Mr. Brixius indicated that is what he is looking for. Because this is just a small <br /> triangular portion of land,he is not looking for a land survey. Mr. Brixius stated that he <br /> is asking for an idea about development that will preserve the rights of the current <br /> property owners. <br /> Mr. Corson asked about coaving. Mr. Brixius stated that coaving had been approved for <br /> Highland Meadows. <br /> Mr. Kerber stated that they are dealing with a very small property and are not going to do <br /> anything to dissatisfy current residents. At the neighborhood meeting one of the issues <br /> was the neighborhood did not want townhomes on 79th Street. The neighborhood wants <br /> a nice flow going into Highland Meadows. Mr. Kerber referred to a map showing 79th <br /> Street and possible access. He stated that there are many variables to work with. <br /> Mr. Corson asked if presenting a ghost plat would be a problem. Mr. Kerber stated that a <br /> ghost plat was done with Highland Meadows. A ghost plat is very difficult to do because <br /> the area is so small. <br /> Mr. Dunn stated that if the Board were reviewing this in January, 1999,the <br /> Comprehensive Plan would be in place. Conceptually,the Task Force is in agreement <br /> with what Mr. Kerber is presenting. Because the Planning and Zoning board is an <br /> advisory Board,Mr. Kerber will need City Council approval. The Planning and Zoning <br /> Board cannot guarantee the R-3 zoning. Mr. Dunn suggested that Mr. Kerber work with <br /> City Staff to address the City's issues. <br /> Mr. Kerber stated that adhering to the City's request would be just like adding lines to a <br /> piece of paper. It will have no meaning. <br /> Mr. Dunn indicated the City did not see it that way. North Suburban Development,Inc., <br /> is the ultimate benefactor from this effort. <br />
