Planning Board Chairman, Lou Howitz presented the minutes of the Boards February
4, 1969 meeting. Mr. Howitz stated that the Apache Corporation had presented a
well organized plan for consideration. On Outlot A the proposal was for 38 town
houses and apartment clusters in Outlot A & D. The apartment proposal consisted
of 10 buildings with a total of 290 apartments, one outdoor and one indoor pool ,
garage ratio of 1 to 1, and a parking ratio of 53 to 1 . Mr. Howitz reported that
17.5 acres would be used up in the proposal. The impact on schools was discussed.
Studies of neighboring communities indicate a break even pupil cost to tax returns.
A $4,000,000 project with a $500 annual pupil cost would project to a school cost
of $70,000 and a tax of $72,000. The Roseville density studies indicates fewer
students than does the St. Anthony School System's projections. Richfield and
Bloomington estimate 1/10 pupils per apartment . Roseville estimates .16 pupils
per apartment. Mr. Howitz further reported that a petition was received by
residents and that those present were not particularly in favor of the Apache
proposal. The Board continued the discussion to March 4, 1969 to allow for Apache
to modify their density proposal. Mr. Howitz informed the Council that only
160 units were allowable according to the building code if Outlots B and D were
taken separately. Motion by Councilman Crouse and seconded by Councilman Dougherty
that the action of the Planning Board, requesting a less dense development pro-
posal from the Apache Corporation and setting a continuance of their discussion to
March 4, 1969, be approved.
