Chairperson Nixt questioned if the stagnant pond on the property had been resolved. <br />that it is a long street and congestion on this property makes it rather unattractive. <br /> <br />He noted <br /> <br />Principal Planner Trudgeon noted that one of the challenges is the lack of access. It is a tough <br />piece to develop and there is one access on Alpine. <br /> <br />Commissioner Reeve inquired how long the road is. <br /> <br />Principal Planner Trudgeon explained it is significantly more than 600 feet, possibly 800 feet. <br /> <br />Commissioner Brauer stated he struggles with the layout as well. He questioned if the density is <br />reasonable and Principal Planner Trudgeon said it is. .- <br /> <br />Chairperson Nixt stated that a second access on 153'a may be better than a .thrOugh road to the <br />south. <br /> <br />Mr. Kempf said that 152na would likely be blocked off at T.HJ347 and all the houses would have <br />to be purchased to widen it. He said he is not planning on leaving. The plan should be to not <br />continue that street through for a long time. He invited the Commissioners to come and tour the <br />area. <br /> <br />Chairperson Nixt said he would like to have the developer continue to work with the Staff, if this <br />corner is going to be developed, it must not have a second access. He would also like to see <br />more green space. <br /> <br />Commission Business <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Johnson, seconded by Chairperson Nixt to direct the developer to bring <br />back a revised plan. <br /> <br />Motion Carried.
