Based on the current concept plan, there would be approximately 72 <br />housing units created. Two golf course holes would be impacted, but the overall primary use as a <br />golf course would remain. Staff requested the Commission discuss this item be further and <br />provide staff with feedback on the concept plan. <br />Commission Business <br />Tom Anderson, 16831 Helium Street, discussed the concept plan proposed by the Rum River <br />Hills Golf Course in further detail with the Commission. He indicated the motivation behind this <br />project was to make the golf course financially viable while also reviving the commercial node in <br />the area. <br />Chairperson Levine questioned how many units the golf course was proposing. <br />Mr. Anderson stated originally he was proposing unattached townhomes, which would create 71 <br />units. However, with the water tower property and an adjacent 25 acres, additional units would <br />be combined into this project. He anticipated as many as 200 to 225 units could be completed. <br />Chairperson Levine stated this number of new residential units would positively impact the <br />commercial node. <br />Development Services Manager Gladhill explained the proposed number of units within the <br />Concept Plan for the Rum River Hills Housing Development would require public involvement. <br />Planning Commission /September 5, 2013 <br />Page 12 of 14 <br />
