OLD BUSINESS
PC 94-5 Fox Hill Subdivision - Unit 2, Pod 5A.
Ken Baldwin from Development Resources, stated that Unit 2, Pod 5A and Unit 3, Pod 4 are
the next two(of a total of eight) phases they would develop within the subdivision. They were
in strict accordance with the preliminary plat approved by the city in May in '94. The
preliminary plat for Unit 3 (or the Town Home Parcel) was approved approximately 90 days
ago.
Chairman Feltz asked for a review of Pod 5A and Pod 4. Upon this review, Tom Lindblom
asked if Diehl Farm Road would be the only access at this stage. Mr. Baldwin said yes, but
in a meeting two days prior, his client had asked them in terms of proposing the.next unit, to
design the retail office space in order to provide a second access. He had requested the "
engineering and design to provide for the construction of the next road.
Bill Schmanski said that he reviewed the final engineering plans and plat. He had
recommended conditional approval of the Plat based on discussions and agreements made
with Development Resources both prior and during the December 20 Planning Council
meeting.

Jeff Palmquist said the Final Plat was conforming to a manner they approved. The last item
of business he had was the landscape plan for the green areas. He wanted to make sure there
were some trees planted. This week he had an approved plan from them, which has 42 trees
on the green space. This is slightly more than one tree per lot, an appropriate number. The
type and sizes of trees conformed with the approved list from the last pod.
George Stewart asked if this landscaping was the same for both Pods. Jeff Palmquist said for
Pod 4, the multi-family, a landscape plan has been submitted, and it was very good, certainly
exceeding a single-family ratio. George Stewart asked how the maintenance of the multi4amily
units would be handled. Jim Madden stated there was an Association to take care of the
common grounds. This includes all landscaping, and snow removal on sidewalks and
driveways.
Jim Nanninga wanted to point out in Pod 4, the City wanted to get 10' parkways with a 50'
right-of-way, but they just couldn't, so it was a little unusual that 4' of the sidewalk will be on
private property. There was still sufficient distance beyond the sidewalk for the parked cars so
they wouldn't be blocked. Mr. Nanninga said this may occur when there were 50' right-cf-ways.
Lawrence Langland asked if maintenance of the sidewalk would go to both parties. Mr.
Nanninga said though it is a public sidewalk, there is some responsibility of each private
owner. (in this case, the Association, in Pod 4.)
George Stewart asked if retail would be directly accessed by sidewalks through development.
Mr. Baldwin said they were required by Ordinance that retail be screened from residential.
Harold Feltz asked if the curbs at the end of the sidewalks would be sloped. Mr. Baldwin said
yes, that was an AD.A. Requirement. George Stewart asked if the sidewalks interconnect to
the streets. Ken Baldwin said they would.
Ralph Pfister asked Bill Schmanski about his concerns about the building setbacks. Bill
Schmanski said it would be addressed in the P.U.D. Ordinance, which had not been drafted
yet.
Lawrence Langland moved to approve the Final Plat of Unit 2, Pod 5A conditional to the
agresed changes to be made on the engineering drawings. Seconded by Tom Lindblom. Roll
