Planning & Zoning Board <br />October 8, 2014 <br />Page 6 <br />DRAFT MINUTES <br />Mr. Packer commented on the potential for a commercial component within the <br />development. Mattamy consulted several local realtors and was informed that this <br />location would have poor commercial development potential in comparison to the other <br />adjacent properties. Overall, commercial market analysis dictates that inclusion of a <br />commercial component is not feasible. Their current plan includes townhomes in the <br />area that had been designated commercial under the previous developer. Mattamy <br />believes that townhomes will be a better fit for this community and that the demand for <br />townhomes is high. The townhomes will be priced between $180,000-$240,000 and in <br />the Blaine development Mattamy sells an average of 4 per month. Mr. Packer indicated <br />that the phasing plan will start from the center of the development and work outwards, so <br />if there was a commercial component it would be during a later phase of the <br />development. <br /> <br /> <br />Staff requested feedback from board on varying lot widths. The board did not have any <br />objections to the lot sizes and approved of the variety. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />D.
