Page NO <br />Mr. McLean questioned if any study hes been made as to how a village <br />would maintain such an open area. <br />Bar. Busch reminded everyone of Mr. Jensen's discussion cf this open <br />space area at the last meeting. He said it would be turned over to <br />the Village in a landscaped manner. Shrubs or trees (which ever the <br />Village would prefer) would be planted, and 14 -16 "perennial grass <br />planted. <br />Mr. Van Housen reminded him that a landscape plan has not been submitted. <br />Mr. Meyer said the only marshy part would be the first green area in the <br />southeast oorner. Otherwise it is fairly sand and developable. <br />Larry Johnson, Lot 18, said he lives on what is supposed to be a golf <br />course lot and he has had a sump pump going all summer. He questioned <br />Jandric's legal and moral obligation to the residents. ':That's to <br />prevent them from eliminating the golf course next year. <br />Mr. McLean noted that we can't really get into moral factors. The <br />responsibility of the P&Z is to deal in mechanics. <br />Mr. Metier did feel that there was a certain moral obligation here, <br />inasmuch as we are a body looking out for the welfare of tax payers and <br />citizens. <br />Mr. Van Housen felt Mr. Johnson's question was well taken. He reminded <br />him that this will be a manicured area and could be developed nioely. <br />We can't develope a legal issue regarding Jandric's moral obligation. <br />Mr. Lombardi asked the P & Z to get a detailed layout of what they plan <br />to do with the buffer scne, should we decide to grant the variance. <br />He appealed to fairness. This will have an inpeot on what Lino Lakes <br />does in the future, as this area will be next in the Twin Cities to <br />develope. <br />Orville Berg asked the length of the back 9 of the golf course as it <br />now is in the plans as opposed to whet it was when they purchased. He <br />noted it doesn't look like a regulation golf course, end if it isn't, <br />it isn't worth putting in. <br />Mr. Busch said the golf course is 60% in. The shrinkage of 400 feet <br />still makes it a fit course. <br />Mr. Hill asked for the acreages on the green space. <br />Lakes are (north and to west)- ---2.3 acres <br />Outlot I ----- 5.8 acres <br />Outlot G 1.8 acres <br />Block 5 ----- .7 acres <br />Outlot 1. (east and south) ----- , 47 acres <br />Total approximately 13.8 acres <br />Mr. Busch once again mentioned ;fir. Jensen's comments at the last <br />meeting regarding the green space. The paths would be wood chips or <br />something like that. The open space idea has not been totally pro- <br />jected into next year.
