Community Development Director Gladhill commented another option would be to provide <br /> internal access off 139th <br /> Commissioner VanScoy thanked staff for holding Open House meetings with the neighboring <br /> residents. He asked if the entire PUD would have to be rezoned given the proposal from the <br /> developer. <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill did not believe this to be the case. He commented <br /> that the City was focusing on the single parcel at this time and not the entire PUD. <br /> Commissioner Nosan believed that the proposed development would serve as a great transitional <br /> property. <br /> Commissioner Brauer provided comment on the history of this property. He inquired if the <br /> developer was willing to work with the adjacent residents to address their concerns. <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill stated the developer appears to be willing to work <br /> through these concerns. <br /> Commissioner Andrusko reported he spoke with neighbors in this area and these individuals <br /> were not in favor of four-story high density residential as shown on the plan. The residents <br /> would rather see retail or commercial on this property as was the promise when they moved into <br /> the area. <br /> Commissioner Brauer noted this was a good point and encouraged the Commission to consider <br /> the Comp Plan amendment that would be required in order for this concept to move forward. <br /> Chairperson Levine was not certain that the Commission was ready to make a decision on this <br /> plan. He asked if the Commission supported the concept and Comp Plan amendment. <br /> Commissioner Brauer did not believe the proposed development provided a compelling reason to <br /> amend the Comp Plan. He also had misgivings about placing high density in this neighborhood. <br /> Commissioner Nosan supported the development. <br /> Commissioner Bauer was in favor of the developer further pursuing the high-density <br /> development plans. <br /> Commissioner VanScoy supported further review of the concept plans. <br /> Commissioner Maul supported the plans and encouraged the developer to include mixed use. <br /> Commissioner Andrusko agreed with Commissioner Brauer's statements. <br /> Chairperson Levine was in favor of the concept moving forward. <br /> Planning Commission/June 4, 2015 <br /> Page 3 of 12 <br />
