The purpose of the meeting was to explain that a settlement
hearing was held on Friday, May 29, 1992 with the League of
Minnesota Attorney, Tom Radio and Mr. Birch and his attorney
Fritz Knaack.
Mr. Brixius said that a new proposal was introduced during this
hearing that Mr. Birch hopes the City Council will consider for
his Amelia Lake project. Mr. Birch is proposing to increase the
density for this area by introducing 254 four (4) and eight (8)
unit town homes valued at $90,000.00 to $120,000.00. The value
is down from the original proposal of $180,000.00 to $200,000.00
per town home.
Mr. Brixius continued that in exchange for the greater density,
Mr. Birch would dedicate 300 feet around Lake Amelia as green
space. This space would equal roughly 15 acres. Mr. Birch hopes
that this green space will satisfy the neighbors.
Mr. Schumacher informed the City Council that staff members met
this afternoon at 4:00 P.M. to discuss the new proposal.
However, staff has not had enough time to analyze the numbers
carefully.
The City Council was concerned about the increased density as
well as the value of the units.
Staff was directed to study the proposal further and report back

with their recommendations. It was also suggested that the
residents of the area be made aware of the new proposal as soon
as staff finished their review.
The meeting was adjourned at 7:15 P.M.
These minutes were considered, corrected and approved at a
regular Council meeting held on June 12, 1995.
