City Planner McGuire Brigl presented the Staff Report and stated that staff recommends that the <br />application proceed to the preliminary plat phase. <br />Commission Business <br />Chairperson Bauer asked where these homes would have access. <br />City Planner McGuire Brigl explained that a private roadway would run parallel to Nowthen <br />Boulevard and connect to 146t1i. She stated that if the southern property did develop, it would also <br />be a private road that would connect to this. She stated that the City would attempt to facilitate <br />the discussions between the property owners. She provided examples of similar situations, noting <br />that there are mutual maintenance and snow removal agreements. <br />Commissioner VanScoy asked how the private road would be terminated. <br />City Planner McGuire Brigl replied that at this time it is shown as a hammerhead. <br />Commissioner VanScoy stated that he would be concerned in the case of an emergency or with <br />trash pickup as to how large vehicles would turn around. <br />City Planner McGuire Brigl confirmed that there should be sufficient turnaround space in the <br />hammerhead. <br />Commissioner VanScoy stated that he would want to ensure that large service vehicles would be <br />able to turnaround. <br />Commissioner Woestehoff referenced the density and asked if the private roadway is included in <br />the acreage. <br />City Planner McGuire Brigl replied that she did not believe the density calculations include the <br />private roadway. She identified additional area that was included in the boulevard. <br />Jason Bebeau, 15363 Radium Street, stated that he had attempted to purchase the two properties <br />to the south but has been unable to do so and therefore is looking to move forward on development <br />of this property. <br />Commissioner Anderson stated that if the 20-foot rule is followed that would lose one home. He <br />asked if that would still be economically feasible for the applicant. <br />Mr. Bebeau stated that they have already lost some density through this process, as they began <br />with 11 and have reduced to eight. <br />Commissioner Anderson stated that his concern would be related to safety and having as much <br />space between the homes would provide benefit. <br />Planning Commission/ November 7, 2019 <br />Page 9 of 11 <br />
