Planning&Zoning Board <br /> May 11,IM <br /> couple of years and taxes have not gone down. This is an <br /> opportunity to take Lino Lakes in a new direction. He would <br /> recommend that this plat be rejected and the developer come <br /> back with something "real". He added that the City should <br /> look at a park requirement within the plat. <br /> Judy Thill of 642 12th Avenue expressed concern about traffic <br /> on 12th Avenue and requested that the roads be considered <br /> before future development. <br /> Carolyn Dahl of 1101 Holly Court would like to suggest a Rural <br /> Executive zoning of 2.5, 3, or 5 acre minimums that would <br /> preserve the wetlands, wildlife, and character of the area. <br /> Al DeMotts of 6265 Holly Drive asked where the run-off from <br /> this development would go, where was the land surveyed from, <br /> and what happens to the wetlands after development. He added <br /> that if the City is willing to distribute a questionnaire <br /> regarding development of the City he would be willing to held <br /> with it. <br /> Amy Donlin suggested that the City consider Mediation Services <br /> of Anoka County to resolve the differences between the <br /> neighborhood and the developer. <br /> Jean Cummings, representing the Whitcombs, stated that there <br /> is a lot of mis-information being spread throughout the <br /> neighborhood regarding the park dedication, the roadways, the <br /> use of the land etc. She felt this was very unfortunate and <br /> unfair to the Whitcombs. <br /> Harvey Seppanan expressed concern regarding the roads and was <br /> -troubled because the development seemed too dense for the <br /> location. <br /> Carolyn Dahl stated that maybe the R-1 Zoning was a mistake <br /> and should be reconsidered. Maybe there is a way for all to <br /> feel a "win" in the situation. <br /> Chris Lydeen asked that the P & Z "do the right thing" . There <br /> needs to be some open space in this plat. <br /> The Public Hearing was closed at 9:08 P.M. <br /> Kathy Nordine questioned the capacity of 12th Avenue and Holly <br /> and whether or not they would be able to handle the additional <br /> traffic. City Engineer Schneider explained that this roadway <br /> (both 12th and Holly) is designated as a State Aid Collector <br /> 5 <br />
