Staff stated that they are not the same developer from the previous application. Steve Johnston with Elan Design Lab addressed the Planning Commission on behalf of the applicant and stated that they are in agreement with the information presented by staff. Commissioner Petty asked about the price for each unit. Norm Dupre of Oneka Lake Reserve LLC addressed the Planning Commission and stated that the price per unit is still unknown at the time. Public Hearing opened at 7:21pm. Jeanne Woeltge, 6103 150th Street North: Woeltge wanted to know if the residents in the adjacent townhome units would be taxed for the sidewalk on 150th Street North, what type of trees the applicant is proposing, and the length of the construction period. Staff answered that no adjacent properties will be assessed for the development and that there will be a variety of trees on site. Sandy Beck, 6125 1515Y Street North: Beck asked about the expansion of the development's stormwater pond and whether or not the developer can access the pond on her property.
