The <br />proposed plat consists of 60 acres proposed to be subdivided into 142 single family urban residential <br />lots to be served by City sewer and water. The subject property is eligible for approximately 180 lots <br />and in response to concerns raised by residents of adjacent rural residential neighborhoods, the <br />developer has decreased the number of lots proposed to 142. The ratio of rural to urban lots on the <br />west property boundary is 1 to 1. The ratio of urban to rural lots on the west half of the north plat <br />boundary is 1.5 to 1. The east half of the north plat boundary abuts 2 extra large rural lots and the <br />urban to rural ratio in this area is 6 to 1. A temporary access to T.H. ~47 from the subdivision would <br />be in place until either the stub streets on the north and south plat boundaries are developed as <br />through streets to 156th and 160a and/or the area reserved for a future service road along T.H. ~47 <br />is constructed to funnel traffic to 156t~ or 160a'. Access to C.S.A.H. #5 is provided by extensions of <br />157~ and 158ato the east. The minimum lot size is 10,800 square feet; the average lot size proposed <br />in Apple Ridge is 15,932 square feet. The average lot size on those lots abutting the rural <br />development to the west and north is 19, 665 square feet. The lot widths or depths on the 6 lots <br />along the west plat boundary are the same as the adjacent rural lots. The Park Commission has <br />recommended that park dedication consist of a cash payment which will be utilized to acquire <br />property for a district park. <br /> <br />Ms. Frolik indicated she received two letters prior to the public hearing on April 1, 1997, expressing <br />opposition of the proposed development fi.om Mark & Carol Commers and Mrs. James Roney. <br />Copies of the letters were distributed to Commission members accordingly for review. <br /> <br />(City Attorney Tom Fitzpatrick arrived at 7:15 p.m.) <br /> <br />Chairperson Bawden requested clarification regarding two house pads along the north boundary of <br />the plat which appear to be situated farther north than the other pads on the block.
