Mr. Hughe� stated tl�at the Planning Commi�sion met Qz� tFie ZOth of June £or an �nfarmal�discussion, the results o£ wh�`.ch have been given to ail parties concexned. Mx�. Solveson presented a more up-to�date �1ara fox �ha Planned Development as rev�sed. They added a pisce of la�.d at the N.W, lj4 for access on Hugo Stareet. They have 411 parking £or cars compared t�t the or3ginal 415 cars. A 24 foot dedication is shown along East River Road fo�r left and r�,ght turn lanes, sidewalks anc� space �or snow r�movai for service right o£ way. Tfiey would have to get tl�e City's final plans be£ore they can sfiow tfieix grades up to the �t�.v�x Road. The garages were shown on the map. Mr. Sol.veson ��.i.d t�.ey had revised the statistics, but have not cha�nged the bu3.ld�ngs in tlie lower level. The or�.ginal sc�uaxe �eet o� the area of the Site was 592,000 and was i.� errqr. The new figure i.s 559,275 square feet. The parking stall s�,ze is 9 feet with� b4 feet betwe�� centers. Mr. Dumphy said he had contacted the Gity Engin�er and �tas told there are no actual plans fox� East River Road so that there is no way �or them to show the�.r .$lar�s wrth the Ci,ty�s, Mr. Solveson said the garages wou].d be about below the road, have the £lat roof and would uss He was asked i.f they had considered the liability having tFie roof so close th tl�e ground, 4 �e�� scx�er�i.n�, paxt o� Mr. Dumphy said the basic concept is going to be about tFie same as £ar as the design of the apartmer�t� �,��. commercial is concerned� The exterior walls wa,1� bQ �h� same for the ap.artments and shop�ing center. T�@ m�� shc�w� a brick and stucco combinat3on. MT. Erickso� ask�d about the brick be3ng brought all the way to tl�e grauz�d and Mr. So�.veson stated the reason for the white stuc�a was to accent the lower part of the apartmenxs maki�a$ � cqntinuous line around the building. Mr. Ericxso� ira£oxm�d Mr. Solveso�n that the City requires tha� a b�ick �a�ia�� should cover 60� of the structure and wonder�d i.� t�� twv £loors b�ing brick and ane floor stucco would be �tl�q�,ate.

The right pf way on East River Road is not uniform in wadth, It is important to determine what the access pattern wi11 be, turn lanes, etc. The Engineering Assistant said that there is nothing concrete at all as far as the proposed width and media with reference to the access. In �th� ori.ginal request, it was decided this would be worked out as the plan developed. �'�1 �'1 Mr. Jensen observed that the East River Road right oi way seems to be extraordinarily wide near the South end of this complex and narrow ne,ar the North end, P�rhaps C����^"7�/���� an additional right of way, � access of 24 feet should be permitted near the North and perhaps nothing neax the South. This would force some change in �he pla�s, but it might be such a thing that parking space may be �ost in the North and perhaps additional parking s�aces obtained at the South end near East River Road. The Ea�gineErin� Assistant said they did not talk about a taper up ta this point. Mr. Dumphy felt there would be ample time to wo�rk out the street pattern as it will take some `��m� t� hav� the actual final plans of the buildings to b� dxaw�. Mx. Era,ckson wondered i£ there were any agreemen.t th�t c�uld b� used on the general plan because a rezoning on� th� corner of Ruth Street and a vacation of streets wi�� t�.ke �ome time to process. He said that he did not foe� �e wou�d object to the change of desi�n particulaxly if the br�,ck came to the ground. Mr. Jensen felt the landscaping specifications were fairly comprehensive. Chairman Hughes stated that, at this poin't, i,i th.�i Planning Commission wished to act, it should be in �h� direction of agreeing in general with the plans as presentod and call for additional detailing before final appraval is given, and to agree with these plans as preliminary, Mr. Jensen said he thought it woul,d or�ly be pxopex� to have some elevations of the commercial property xelati�ve to this change in exterior change in appe�xance at some future time. MOTION by Erickson, seconded by Myhra�tl�at th� P1��- ning Commission recommend a roval of the change �r� desi n of S rin roo ar to t e ounci w� �s re Zminar an su ect to a rova o t e in� ans tha the Council e re ueste to examine t e re �,�p na ^ Rlans and report as to their acceptance o t as p a.n. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion ca�rr�ad. r"� Chairman Hughes stated that they want it to be cleax� to the Council that the Commission agrees in gen�ra7. wi�th the plans as submitted and xequest that Council a.l�o indi�e �����: opin��r�• �hg�� a�rg ��umber of �hings th�t the Coa�a�s�ion �aund in�pplicable or unde�irable or Plannin� Commission Minutes p��� 4 � n � subject to some revision name�� in the design as present�d go far and apparently should be listed: 1) The brick f�c�ng � on the apartment building should continue down to the £inished grade. Also, it must meet the 60o r�quireme�� pf exterior brick material. Z) Before final approval, the Engineering �epartmeni should resolve the �treet access problem on East River Road �o the commercial property together with ppoper easements, sidewalks, planting �xou�d the apartment and commercial complex should be sufficient to protect the R-1 property. 3) Elevations to commercia� , property be provided. 4) Parking adequ�cy should be determined by the Buildin� Inspection Department. 5)` Necessary request for rezoning of tracts that are not included in PD Development zoning should be re�uested, vacation of existing streets in tract. All other require- ments of the PD district must be complete before final approval. ,� � ,� � t 2. Mr. Dumphy brought up the matter of Lots 32, �3, 34 and 35. They were shown in the original plan and accepted at that time althou�h he did not own them then. In the meantime, he purchased the property and wondered if he would have to go �hrough the rezoning process again. Chairman Hughes said he knew of no way this can be waived. LOT SPLIT REQUEST (CONTINUED): L.S. #68-09, �0$BR� A�G�RD Lv�� 22 �nru �5, �locx 7, Spring Broo Par Ad�i� oi n. Mr. DeGardner explained that he has four l�ts f�cing East River Roado In regard to Lot 26, which th� P1�nn�A� Commission had suggested he purchase, the lot is tax forfeit and he is unable to fine the owner. T�e sale pf the lot would not come up until next spring. The Subcommittee's recommendation was that �ox 26 b� purchased, Mr. Jensen said, in order to eliminate a driveway onto the East River Road and the size of th� pxo° posed lot split with the 26 foot 1ot would incxease the size to meet minimum lot size even though thexe would bQ a variance on lot width. Mr. Erickson reminded Mr. DeGardner that these ax� undersized lots. Mr. DeGardner said he would probabl� hav� to buy the two lots (Lots 26 and 27), but because of the s�ze, he d�d not see how he could utilize them. Chai�man Hughes offered that because the own�r af Lot 26 can not be located, that the petitioner would be delayed in his construction if we did not take action at thiS time. Mr. DeGardner has indicat�d the lot split is reaSOnable similar to the build�ngs that are going u� in the area at this time. Mr. Erickson �a�d fie agreed w�tfi Chairman Hugfie� and would make the �ollowing mvti.on, '"1 ,� 3, 4.
