Commissioner Nixt stated that he did not want to move forward with the rezoning until he is <br />comfortable with the plat. <br /> <br />Jim Johnson, Hakanson Anderson, stated that staff has proceeded with the guidelines received <br />from the County, but noted staff will not get a definite answer until there is a plan presented to <br />the County. <br /> <br />Chairperson Anderson inquired if the apartment site is adequately designed for sale. <br /> <br />Mr. Bulow replied that an access from C.R. #116 and Barium Street would make the site <br />adequate to make it a saleable property. He stated that if the Commission would like to see <br />changes to the plat, he would like those recommendations. He will work with staff to make sure <br />those changes are accomplished and then move forward to the Council to get their <br />recommendation. <br /> <br />· Commissioner Jensen replied that the issue should be brought back to the Planning Commission <br /> with alternatives for them to review. <br /> <br />Mr. Bulow requested that the Commission forward their recommendation to the Council. <br /> <br />Commissioner Jensen replied that the Commission needs some input from staff regarding the <br />suggested changes before they can make any recommendation.. <br /> <br />Chairperson Anderson stated that he is not comfortable with forwarding anything to Council at <br />this time because he does not know if the development can be accomplished at all because of the <br />traffic concerns. <br /> <br />City Engineer Jankowski reviewed the traffic analysis of the area. <br /> <br />Commissioner Nixt stated that he does not think the traffic study is a realistic evaluation of the <br />traffic problems in the area because he has driven through the existing neighborhood on many <br />occasions and has personally witnessed the traffic problems. <br /> <br />Chairperson Anderson stated that he would like a response from staff regarding the latest <br />suggestions to the plat. <br /> <br />Commissioner Jensen stated that she would like the right-in/right-out access from C.R. #116 to <br />access the townhome development as well as the apartments. <br /> <br />Mr. Bulow stated that he would not be in favor of providing the access to the townhome <br />development because it would not be the safest access for the residents in the townhomes. He <br />stated that it is best to keep the traffic between the two developments separate. <br /> <br />Planning Commission/March 20, 2000 <br /> Page 13 of 15 <br /> <br /> <br />
