the two homes on the back of the property to which the City has already issued a permit. <br />She indicated that she is very excited that the City is looking to provide a second access, <br />which they would prefer. <br /> <br />Ms. Wald advised that the homes would be in the $300,000 to $360,000 range. She <br />stated that ShadeTree does not regulate rental homes, but the City has regulations for <br />rentals. She indicated that they do meet all the City requirements for a cluster ordinance, <br />noting that they actually had to reduce one lot size because there is a maximum lot size <br />allowed under the cluster ordinance. <br /> <br />Vice Chairperson Johnson asked if this property was purchased after the cluster <br />ordinance went into effect. <br /> <br />Ms. Wald stated that it was purchased knowing it fell under the cluster ordinance, after <br />that ordinance had passed. <br /> <br />Commissioner Van Scoy asked about access to the septic system from the road. <br /> <br />Ms. Wald stated that 177~h will access the area. She indicated that there will be a Class V <br />driveway to the system itself. <br /> <br />Commissioner Van Scoy asked if there is a sidewalk in the development, to which Ms. <br />Wald replied that there is not. Commissioner Van Scoy asked ifa sidewalk was required. <br /> <br />Community Development Director Trudgeon indicated that cul-de-sacs are not required <br />to have sidewalks. <br /> <br />Commissioner Brauer stated that is something they will want to keep in mind with future <br />cluster developments. <br /> <br />Diane Karst, 17650 Cobalt, indicated that if water comes down off that property it will be <br />in her backyard. She stated that she keeps hearing about the DNR, but asked who was <br />responsible for contacting the DNR about the wetland, and who sets those standards. <br /> <br />City Engineer Jankowski stated that if the question is about wetlands, all of the wetlands <br />in Minnesota are protected by a number of organizations. He indicated that the larger <br />ones are protected by the DNR,and the smaller ones are protected by the Wetland <br />Conservation Act, which is administered by the Watershed District. He stated that they <br />need a wetland delineation, which will be reviewed. He indicated that the delineation has <br />been done, and the proposed development plan avoids those wetland areas. <br /> <br />Jeff Sigler, 17571 Baugh Street, indicated he is curious about the lot prices. <br /> <br />Ms. Wald stated that they do not determine prices based just on the lot or the house; they <br />do package prices. <br /> <br />-293- <br /> <br /> <br />
