Minutes for the Planning Commission September 23, 1998 - Page 4 Peltier questioned where the water was going to run when the ponds overflowed. Gertz said each pond, going south, is a foot lower than the other, and in the event of a 100 -year flood, the water would end up going through the pipes under Oneka Lake Boulevard. Schumann felt a fair amount of time had been spent on compromising. Schumann made motion, Harrison seconded, to recommend approval of the Sweet Grass Meadow subdivision as per the Finding of Facts and Recommendation with the following additional recommendation to the City Council: 1. Joint traffic study be done with Oneka Lake View Subdivisions 2. Council determine feasibility of a bike trail on the west side of Greene Avenue 3. Council and staff work with the DNR to resolve issues regarding parking at the public access on Oneka Lake. All AYES. Motion carried. Peltier called a five minute recess.
