• <br />• <br />Comprehensive Plan Amendment <br />Village of Hardwood Creek <br />page 12 <br />These questions will apply whether or not the comprehensive plan is amended and <br />no matter how the site is developed. The point is that there are alternatives for <br />creating accesses to the site. The details will have to be worked out at part of the <br />PUD review. <br />3) General Location and Extent of Public and Common Open Space. <br />The concept plan includes an extensive open space network. The open space is to <br />include stormwater management features, parkland, and trails combined into a large <br />greenway system. <br />Several branches of the county ditch system lay in tiles crossing the site. <br />However, many drain tiles that are not part of the ditch system were placed on the <br />site over the years to drain the land for agriculture. Much of the potential for <br />incorporating conservation development elements into the development lies with the <br />stouuwater management design. Utilizing infiltration to the greatest extent possible <br />will be important, as will accommodating the flow currently carried by the numerous <br />drain tiles. <br />The Parks, Natural Open Space /Greenways and Trail System Plan includes trail <br />connections to be created on the site. The concept plan includes these and more to <br />facilitate walking and biking within the site and to connect to trails outside the site. <br />The greenway system would utilize the pipeline easement as part of the trail network. <br />4) General Location of Residential and Non - Residential Land Uses with Approximate <br />Type and Intensities of Development. <br />Single family and multi- family residential areas are shown on the concept plan. <br />Housing will cover approximately 150 to 170 acres. Commercial uses in the <br />southeast portion of the site will comprise 55 to 70 acres. The following table is <br />taken from the concept plan of August 2005. <br />Total <br />363 acres <br />Commercial <br />500,000 to <br />600,000 sf <br />55 to 70 acres <br />Residential <br />Single family <br />400 to 420 units <br />Multi - family <br />800 to 830 units <br />1200 to 1250 units <br />150 to 170 acres <br />Open Space <br />80 to 95 acres <br />Public Right of Way <br />55 acres <br />
