Bruce Iblz presented the Fbxfire Concept Plan along with a new proposal for Green Acres Subdivision. Green Acres Subdivision is to the west of Foxfire Estates. Previous concept for development of this pircel was rejected based on road continuity and accessibility. The new Green Acres Subdivision will provide an extension of Jamaca from Jsne Road N., through the Springborn property, to ToMontrevilb Trail N. The upper road of Fbxfire will also connect with Jamaca., This road connection has the approval of the County Engineer. This road will provide access from the North and connect DeMontrevi.11e Trail N. with Jane Road N. Questions: What about traffic on Jane Road N.? Based on the Councils previous denial of no continuity of roads, and no flow through for traffic, the extension of Junaca seems the logical answer to the problem. PLANNING AND ZONTNG COMMISSION SEP'T.Elvusrn. , - Fbxfire Estates: Hearing Continuation Questions:- What about storm water run-off? A storm water study by the Engineer should be done for Fbxfire Estates and Green Acres Sub- division. The developers propose to contain all their water on their property. What about underground flow - well pollution if the flow is too fast? Perculation tests will be done on each type of soil in the area, Zoning - what will it be, will it be chLnged? The present PUD allows for cluster development, Traffic Counts - have any been done? No, but more information can be secured, It will be impossible to predict where the traffic will go. Since Green Acres Subdivision has filed under a PUD and Fbxfire Estates originally filed under Cluster Development on their application, but are nowPUD, wi.11 there be a need for another hearing? This question to be referred to the City Attorney. Residents along Jane Road N. feel the road is inadequate to serve a development. A memo from Larry Whittaker, Adm. Assistant urges the PZC withhold any recom- mendations until we receive the necessary correspondence from Tom Noyes. Since the Fbxfire Estates request is for Concept Approval, they feel en Enviromental Assessment Study should not be required until there is a decision made on the concept. The Administrative Assistant wi711determirr when an »wiromental Assessment Study will be required. It is advised. that bbxfire Estates and. Green Acres Subdivision be brought in simultaneously, since the Green Acres Subdivision road has a definate effect on lbxfire Estates. It is also advised we go PUD, if this is the recommendation of the City Attorney and the Administrative Assistant. Hearing closed at 9:30 PM. Motion by Sovereign that the PZC recommends Ibxfire Estbtes go through PUD and would like the Councils reaction. Also, the PZC recommends considering Fbxfire Estates and Green Acres Subdivision at the same time. Seconded by Johnson. Motion carried 7-0 Win.
