Councilmember Forslund stated she had a problem with the 25-foot easement
becoming an access for the developer's property since it was designated as
a public road. Mr. Lundquist stated it couldn't be a public road because
it would dead end at the fence. The developer proposes to use the 25 foot
easement and maintain it.
Councilmember Rowley stated her concerns for the possibility of crime in
the enclosed walk between buildings. Mr. Lundquist indicated any—possible
crime might be alleviated by proper lighting and the movement of people.
Councilmember Forslund questioned the possibility of the roof collapsing
from the proposed water retention. Mr. Lundquist stated that the roof can
take a great load and there would never be more than 5" of water, which
would be released slowly.
Mr. Lundquist stated the proposed
water retention is consistent with the portion of the SEH document, which
they perceive to be consistent with the City's request. Councilmember
Rowley informed him the report had been accepted, but the plan was denied by
Council.
Doug Dinndorf 2901 Oakwood Drive, expressed the concerns of the residents
and presented a petition with 54 signatures opposed to the project. The
problems cited were: the traffic increase to the south in the Oakwood/
Knollwood area poses a safety hazard to the young children in the area;
the parking problems--he doesn't think the door arrangement proposed will
be sufficient; and the problem of high density next to a low density area--
the residents feel the proposed development is totally inconsistent with
the Comprehensive Plan for the area.
Neil Loeding, 5046 Longview Drive, stated the water released from the roof
will be taken into the ground below and affect the drainage problem.
Janet Schuldt, 7887 Spring Lake Rd., stated that if the developer is allowed
to develop the private road, it would cut off the end of Spring Lake Road,
preclude development of several lots, and create land-locked property.
