They have done several concept plans only to be voted down. Single - family - Average lot size is 12,000 square feet with no lot exceeding 15,000 square feet. 2.17 units per acre. Center turn around with landscaping. Large open area. Radius is large enough for a snowplow. Open space could go into a land cash donation. Maybe parks. If the land goes into parks the Rec Board would want to be sure the yy have enough money to develop it. Quality wet land it 8.4 acres. Z4 acres of green. Who would take care of the open land? I i - Page 2- Possible homeowners association. There are concerns about parking for the park area, and if the homeowners association fails then the City would end up being responsible for taking care of the land. Roppolo is wondering if it could be used as a special service area. Then the SSA can charge and the city maintains the area. Area would need to be moved along the read.

This property backs up to Rt. 47. Roppolo doss not feel people would pay $170,000 for a home that backs up to Rt. 47. Spang and Jones pointed out that with a berm and some landscaping this is B Developers have done this on Randall Road and Rt. 34. Detmer feels that with some tight restrictions in the PUD then it works out well. Once you bring in architectural designs you can force that into the market.
