ANTHONY PLANNING BOARD POLI CI ES RELATING TO MULTIPLE FAMILY DEVELOPMENTS In view of the many controversies that have risen in the Village of St. Anthony over the construction of multi-family housing units,. the Planning. Board has deemed it desirable to state in writing some of the policies that the Planning Board recognizes the need for multi-family housing units to provide a variety of housing facilities for the people who desire to live in St. Anthony. The Board also is aware that any., controls placed on construction are based on the principles of protecting the publics health, welfare and safety. All the regulations pertaining to development as expressed in Ordinances 66, 66A and 66B are minimums and should not be regarded as maximums. It is desired that developers will be encouraged to go beyond the minimums and create sound developments that will be an asset to the community as well as the developer and the owner. POLICY GUIDELINES 1 . Well designed and constructed multi-family units on adequate sites and keeping in harmony with adjacent land uses are considered desirable additions under conditions as established by zoning and building codes, and other rele- vant ordinances. 2. It shall be the policy to deny developments that will be in any manner • detrimental to the general health, safety, and welfare of the community or nearby property values. 3. proposed developmbnts will be judged on their acceptability on the basis of factual evidence presented by proponents and opponents. 4. Development of planned Unit projects which. no maily include more than one structure are considered More desirable than M nje structures. 5. Consideration of aesthetic appearance of any proposal will be of importance but will not be the sole justification for approval or disapproval . Such features as the following will be considered unfavorable. A. Building designs that are incompatible with other adjacent structures especially single family residences. B. Unimaginative site design such as structures being lined up along streets where other arrangements are possible. 6. The Planning Board will impose conditions that are reasonable in approving. developments. It shall be the responsibility of the developer to clearly demonstrate that any conditions requested are not economically feasible. This is interpreted to mean the elimination of a reasonable profit not merely the reduction of potential profit. • • 7. The existing land area requirements per dwelling unit as stated in Ordinance 66 and any amendments will be continually reviewed to determine their appropriatness. 8. In order for a development to receive final approval the following items must be presented to the Planning Board or a waiver of the eequirement granted. A. Building plan with front, back and side elevations in additioh to standard floor plans. Other pertinent data such as facing material should be included. All plan modifications are not acceptable unless all proposed changes can be and are simply stated on a written proposal to the board. B. Site plan which contains the following: packing areas, access roads, landscaping, recreation fecilities, and pedestrian circulation or any other use that the site will be used for. The plan should be drawn to a minimum scale of 1" = 20i. Since the burden of showing that the proposed development is desirable falls on the developer, it is in his best interests that he provide as many facts, drawings and pians as he can reasonably provide for evaluation. • Drafted by Clement Springer
