The proposed plat consists 0f60 acres proposed to be subdivided into 142 single family urban residential lots to be served by City sewer and water. The subject property is eligible for appro>dmately 180 lots and in response to concerns raised by residents of adjacent rural residential neighborhoods, the developer has decreased the number of lots proposed to I42. The ratio of rural to urban lots on the west property boundary is 1 to 1. The ratio of urban to rural lots on the west half of the north plat boundary is 1.5 to 1. The east half of the north plat boundary abuts 2 extra large rural lots and the urban to rural ratio in this area is 6 to 1. A temporary access to T.H. ~-47 from the subdivision would be in place until either the stub streets on the north and south plat boundaries are developed as through streets to 156~' and 160~ and/or the area reserved for a future service road along T.H. g47 is constructed to funnel traffic to 156~ or 160~. Access to C.S.A.H. #5 is provided by extensions of 157~ and t58~ to the east. The minimum lot size is 10,800 square feet; the average lot size proposed in Apple Ridge is 15,932 square feet. The average lot size on those lots abutting the rural development to the west and north is 19, 665 square feet. The lot widths or depths on the 6 lots along the west plat boundary are the same as the adjacent rural lots. The Park Commission has recommended that park dedication consist of a cash payment which will be utilized to acquire property for a district park. Ms. Frolik indicated she received two letters prior to the public hearing on April 1, I997, expressing opposition of the proposed development from Mark & Carol Commers and Mrs. James Roney. Copies of the letters were distributed to Commission members accordingly for review. (City Attorney Tom Fitzpatrick arrived at 7:15 p.m.) Chairperson Bawden requested clarification regarding two house pads along the north boundary of the plat which appear to be situated farther north than the other pads on the block.
