Chairperson Niat asked how the Commission feels about the location of the open space. <br /> <br />Commissioner '[Shepherd stated in the original plan there are private streets giving access to the <br />open space, so it does not seem to cut it off. <br /> <br />Commissioner Brauer indicated he would still support having open space on the other side as <br />well. <br /> <br />Chairperson Ni~t agreed, noting more than the two little strips shown. <br /> <br />Mr. Keely statad they could increase the size of those strips. He indicated the overall plan is to <br />get people to sidewalks and to significant park area, which is only two or three blocks away. <br /> <br />Chairperson Nixt noted that is why he not so concerned about making it a public road. <br /> <br />Commissioner Brauer indicated to him it reminds him of a New England village where there are <br />lots of small green areas for people to go. <br /> <br />Commissioner Van Scoy asked if they addressed the length of the private roads. <br /> <br />Assistant Community Development Director Trudgeon indicated some are addressed by <br />becoming publiic streets.
