The plan will not create an excessive burden on parks, schools, streets and other public facilities and utilities which serve, or are proposed to serve, the planned development. 10. The planned development will not have an undue and adverse impact on the reasonable enjoyment of neighboring property. 11.

The adjoining properties to the west are residential ~wellings located on approximately i acre sites with current assessing values ranging from $57,000 to $80,000. - It was after much discussion that-the entire Cu~mission agreed with point %7 of the Findings of Fact. As a result of this discussion, Mr. Carson stated that the developer would be willing to reduce the number of qua~s from 8 to 7 and try to regain that density in Phase II. Mr. ~vson stated that 7 quads was the absolute lowest density the developer could offer. Plans for a tot lot will also be deleted. It was also brought out in discussions that Council has been referring to ~nurston Avenue as an MSA highway and it should be MSA street.
