Planning & Zoning Board March 9, 1994 • they are being built and start at $100,000. e After reviewing the drawings submitted, P & Z comments included the following: - Schaps suggested having the main street run perpendicular to the lake with the units looking out over the lake. He suggested taking advantage of the natural surroundings in a more aesthetically pleasing way. He also suggested the units will probably draw a lot of golfers due to the proximity of Chomonix. - Landers expressed concern regarding run -off into the lake. Mr. Corson explained that there would be a holding pond on the north end of the property and drainage would be directed that way. - Gelbmann indicated there seemed to be a lot of impervious surface adjacent to the shoreline. He also suggested clustering the units to help break -up the impact. - Nordine stated that as presented, the units were not very appealing. - Robinson stated that he liked the setback from the lake and the park area along Lake Drive. - Mesich suggested the developer consider two -car garages with each unit. Chairman Schaps thanked Mr. Corsan for a good presentation. B. Concept Plan Review: Mr. Brixius stated that staff is considering some changes in the current Concept Plan Review procedure. Generally the P & Z has no input from staff at a concept review relating to zoning, engineering, site review, etc. because no cash has been deposited to cover even a minor review. The P & Z agreed that they would like this input included in a concept review and suggested criteria be prepared to change the existing procedures. C. Other Discussion: John Landers questioned some wetland mitigation practices outlined in the Quad Paper and pertaining to the 49/23 interchange. Mary Kay explained that plans are available in the office for review. She also explained that the new law was quite complicated and did allow varying degrees of replacement depending on the type of wetland created and the type being replaced. John Landers also suggested that the P & Z consider work sessions similar to the Council's for lengthy discussion items to help in regulating length of the regular meetings. The general consensus of the P & Z was that these work sessions work good for the Council but may not be appropriate for the P & Z. Joyce Sharpen, area resident, indicated that she likes to hear the comments made by the various Board Members concerning different items and thinks that is important to the general public.
