Planning Commission October 26, 2017 Page 4 Commissioner Arcand stated that the most recent projects in Hugo have been able to use stormwater to irrigate the entire development, which has been made up of many different types of products. Mr. Hempel said they would evaluate using stormwater reuse in the entire development. Commissioner McRoberts asked Mr. Hempel if there was anything more that he would like to receive comments on. Mr. Hempel stated he would like to add that the 65 ft. wide lots are becoming more of the "norm" compared to the 80-85 ft. wide lots because the value of property is too great to make the numbers work for people purchasing the homes. Commissioner Luchsinger stated that having a variety of lot sizes and product types is attractive for the City because it will offer more options and price points for smaller families and empty nesters. Commissioner Arcand asked Mr. Hempel if he knew the price points for the homes that were to be offered in the development. Mr. Hempel stated that he did not know that information at this time. Commissioner Luchsinger stated that along with the sidewalks and trails, previously discussed with the developer, it would be nice to have a loop through the northern portion of the park. Commissioner McRoberts stated that he would like to make sure the developer has a clear proposal of what they will be asking for flexibility on and what they will be giving back to the City in return for this flexibility when the project returns in the future.
