17 1 There was also agreement that the access off Lowry Avenue had been 2 specifically forbidden previously. 3 When it was pointed out to the developers that there was unanimous 4 opposition on the Commission to another curb cut on Kenzie Terrace, Mr. 5 Nelson said he certainly didn't want any traffic problems to affect his 6 rentals and wouldn't want another traffic light in the area. 7 Mr. Soth suggested that there was a real timing problem involved and 8 recommended that the Commission make their recommendations to the 9 Council approving any of the changes they felt they could so they 10 could work out some alternatives to access with the developers if it possible at their November 22nd meeting. 12 Several alternatives for resiting the structures to provide access to 13 both Building A and C without increasing the traffic around the senior 14 buildings were explored with the architect who said he would have 15 traffic studies done and by eliminating the driveway area might be able 16 to rotate Building A to gain more land between buildings. Commissioner 17 Hansen suggested the City might even be willing to grant a setback 18 variance to get that accomplished. 19 When Commissioner Hansen asked the City Attorney whether the Planning 20 Commission would get another look at the Final Plan before it's f 21 approved, Mr. Soth told him the Ordinance contemplated the Final . Plan 22 as being virtually the same as the Detail Plan, so although the Final 23 Plan would be shown to the Planning Commission, it would more or less 24 be set, so to speak, by that time. He said the only purpose of the 25 Final Plan is for the City to have something permanent on file. 26 Chair Wagner indicated he could foresee even a joint Council/Planning 27 Commission to give final approval to the revisions. 28 'Commission Recommendations 29 Motion by Madden, seconded by Hansen to recommend the Council waive the 30 Preliminary Plat and approve the Final Plat which combined all the 31 parcels of the Kenzie Development Project into a single lot. 32 Motion carried unanimously. 33 Motion by Madden, seconded by Brownell to recommend to the Council that 34 the Development Concept Plan and Detail Plan be amended as presented in 35 the Site Plan dated November 4 , 1988, presented at the November 15th 36 Planning Commission hearing with the exception that the westernmost 37 curb cut be eliminated and the placement of Building A be adjusted to 38 accommodate access to Building C and that changes in the Redevelopment 39 Agreement be made as needed. The Planning Commission also recommends 40 the Detail Plan provide for an access for emergency vehicles only 41 through the adjoining shopping center area. 42 Notion carried unanimously.
