The <br />project will contain 104 larger <br />single family dwelling sites, 76 <br />units of courtyard housing and <br />2 commercial lots. Lot prices <br />range from $12,900 with all im- <br />provements. in and paid. <br />Development of Flintwood Se- <br />. cond Addition' will be in <br />phases, with Phase I begin- <br />ning this construction season <br />and including 40, units of <br />courtyard housing and 49 <br />larger single family dwelling <br />, sites. <br />Courtyard Housing .. <br />A Unique and Increasingly <br />Popular Concept <br />Courtyard housing is the <br />newest concept in single fami' <br />Iy homes in the North Subur: <br /> <br />ban area. Courtyard housing <br />consists of 4 units of housing. <br />on individual single family lots <br />with a common driveway to <br />serve the 4 un its, and private <br />driveways coming off the com- <br />mon driveway. In Flintwood <br />Second Addition, the homes <br />built on courtyard lots will <br />have architectural controls <br />which will greatly enhance the <br />styles and compatibility of the <br />housing. Th~re will ~Iso be a <br />homeowners association for <br />the courtyard housing at a fee <br />of $20/month, to cover the cost <br />of snow removal on the com- <br />mon driveway and basic lawn <br />care. Courtyard housing is be- <br />coming very popular, as evi- <br />denced in Eden Prairie re- <br />cently, because it allows for <br />more affordable single family <br />ho.using by way of smaller lot <br />sizes. <br /> <br />~ft~'t::W&~~@&~ii'W'~~'ti~&~'g"~.&~':i~'t~&.~1r@&~1rW'L\~'ti~&~'g"@,h~ <br /> <br />Ramsey Residents <br /> <br />The City of Ramsey is cur- <br />rently seeking cand Idales to <br />fljl a ...acar"'c, on :s P' a"" ng <br />and Zoning Commission, Ttle <br />pOSition requires a minimum <br />of one evening meeting per <br />month; familiarity with <br />Ramsey City Ordinances is de- <br />sired.
