• <br />Planning & Zoning Board <br />December 11, 1996 <br />Page 5 <br />bedrooms with a loft area. He noted that the units have been well received in <br />other communities. It was originally anticipated that they would be sold to young <br />families and an occasional empty nester. However in every development he has <br />built, very few young families buy them and there are no empty nesters. The <br />units are overwhelmingly purchased by single people who have no children. <br />Approximately 5 percent of occupants will have one child. <br />Chair Schaps asked the anticipated selling price. <br />Mr. Harstad answered that the price will be in the $90,000 range. He noted that <br />the homeowners association will contract for snow removal that will include hand <br />shoveling. The biggest bone of contention about this project is that the cul -de- <br />sac will be a City street instead of a private one. Even though the City snow <br />plows will come through, he anticipates that the homeowners association <br />contract service will end up plowing the street, either because they arrive first or <br />because they have to clean the mounds left at the ends of driveways after the <br />City crew has come through. <br />Mr. Ahrens responded that City ordinances prohibit private roads in the City of <br />Lino Lakes. <br />Mr. Robinson asked the direction of the surface water drainage flow. <br />Mr. Harstad answered that surface water will flow to public right -of -ways when <br />possible to enter the City storm sewer. There is a large pond on the east end. <br />Mr. Ahrens added that the water from the pond at the east edge flows eastward <br />to the next parcel. He noted that ponding will be subject to his review, and a <br />permit will be required from Rice Creek Watershed District. <br />Mr. Robinson stated that his concern is that with the industrial development <br />already in the area, added development brings more and more blacktop with <br />surface water flowing into County Ditch No. 22, which he does not believe has <br />been cleaned for 50 years. He is not so concerned with this project, but with <br />future projects the City should require developers to put money into a pool to <br />upgrade the ditch. Rice Creek Watershed District does not have the money <br />available for this work. <br />Mr. Harstad noted that the City's zoning ordinance requires a minimum of 35 <br />percent of the site to be green grass or open space. This project will have 42 <br />percent. <br />Mr. Ahrens stated that each project provides funds to the Surface Water <br />Management Plan Fund. Also, the City is doing a study of County Ditch No. 22 <br />
