Councilmember Menth commented on the difficulty of <br />navigating areas with standalone roadways. He used the example of Highway 10, where the <br />neighborhoods are standalone and therefore do not provide a cut through option for passing traffic. <br />He noted that this would be similar, requiring vehicles to use Alpine. Councilmember Specht <br />stated that he prefers not having the connection as it makes the neighborhood safer and eliminates <br />cut through traffic. He agreed that this plan could be a good alternative to an apartment building <br />but would still provide a desired product in the housing market. Mr. Brown commented that there <br />is a demand for the villa product and the price point as the larger lot single-family homes price out <br />a large portion of the market. He stated that the development on the north side of Alpine has <br />remained since 2016 and there is difficultly selling. Deputy City Administrator Gladhill stated <br />that the lots on the north side of Alpine are two acre lots with septic and well, and therefore not <br />the same as the single-family lots proposed with this development. <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor LeTourneau, Councilmembers Specht, Musgrove, and <br />Kuzma. Voting No: Councilmembers Heinrich, Menth, and Riley. <br />Deputy City Administrator Gladhill noted that this would be contingent upon the draft <br />Comprehensive Plan being approved as well. <br />
