Chairperson Bauer asked what type of development could be placed on this property if it were <br /> zoned R-1. <br /> City Planner Anderson commented and R-1 zoning district would require 80-foot-wide lots that <br /> were 10,800 square feet in size. <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill discussed the number of lots that could locate on this <br /> parcel if it were zoned R-1. He explained this option has been reviewed with the developer and <br /> from the pro forma standpoint, it does not work. <br /> Jordan Lahti, 6014 157th Lane NW, stated his main concerns with the proposed development was <br /> how it would increase traffic on Radium Street. He explained he has young children and noted <br /> he feared for their safety. He recommended additional control measures be considered for the <br /> intersection of Nowthen Boulevard and 157th Lane. <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill stated this was a priority area for the City. <br /> Mr. Lahti questioned how many of the neighbors would have to offer their support in order for <br /> the City to extend City water and sewer. <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill reported the City would need to have at least 60% of <br /> the neighbors offering their support in order for this to move forward. He explained another <br /> option would be for the City to offer water and sewer connections when the roadway was <br /> reconstructed at some point in the near future. <br /> Motion by Commissioner Gengler, seconded by Commissioner Anderson, to close the public <br /> hearing. <br /> Motion Carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Bauer, Commissioners Gengler, Anderson, <br /> Onyambu, Surma, and Woestehoff. Voting No: None. Absent: Commissioner VanScoy. <br /> Chairperson Bauer closed the public hearing closed at 8:11 p.m. <br /> Commission Business <br /> Commissioner Anderson asked what the width of 157th Avenue was. <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill reported this roadway was 28 feet wide. He noted <br /> this was a private street. <br /> Commissioner Anderson understood the expense for the reconstruction of Potassium Street was <br /> still up in the air. He commented he could not support a 24-foot width for Potassium Street and <br /> recommended that this roadway be 28 feet wide. He stated he saw very little public benefit from <br /> this project and recommended that it go back to the drawing board. <br /> Planning Commission/October 4,2018 <br /> Page 6 of 9 <br />
