ITEM 3. APPROVAL OF MEETING MINUTES:
The February 2, 2012 Planning Commission meeting minutes were approved as
presented.
ITEM 4. ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Mr. Morey stated that the following items were distributed at tonight's meeting:

Committee meeting motions regarding Kenora Ridge and Crescent Ridge
Third Addition.
2. Revised page 3 of the Kenora Ridge planning report with revisions under
the Tree Preservation section.
Mr. Morey stated that Agenda Item 5, Spirit of Brandgen Farm 6th Addition
easement vacation request, has been withdrawn by the applicant because after
further review it was determined that the easements in question are not in the favor
of the City of Lakeville, therefore no public hearing or City Council action is
necessary.

ITEM 6. SPIRIT OF BRANDTJEN FARM 7m ADDITION
Chair Davis opened the public hearing to consider the application of SBF
Development Corp. for the vacation of public drainage and utility easements in
conjunction with the re- platting of 13 lots in Spirit of Brandtjen Farm 7th Addition.
The Recording Secretary attested that the legal notice had been duly published in
accordance with State Statutes and City Code.
Jacob Fick from SBF Development Corp. presented an overview of his request. Mr.
Fick stated that 13 lots in SBF 7th Addition are being re- platted to accommodate a
new builder, who is requiring larger house pads.
Planning Director Daryl Morey presented the planning report. Mr. Morey stated
that in conjunction with the SBF 9th Addition final plat, SBF Development
Corporation has submitted an application to vacate the existing drainage and utility
easements along the boundaries of the 13 lots being re- platted. He indicated that
new drainage and utility easements will be established along the boundaries of the
12 lots being final platted in SBF 9th Addition, which is one lot less than was
originally final platted with SBF 7th Addition.
Mr. Morey reminded the Planning Commission that due to the Subdivision
Ordinance amendment approved by the City Council on January 3, 2012, final plats
no longer require review by the Planning Commission. The only action required at
this time by the Planning Commission is a recommendation to the City Council on
the easement vacation application.
Mr. Morey stated that Planning and Engineering Department staff recommend
approval of the drainage and utility easement vacation as presented in the February
9, 2012 planning report.

ITEM 7. KENORA RIDGE
Chair Davis opened the public hearing to consider the application of Kenyon
Holdings, LLC for the preliminary and final plat of three single family lots to be
known as Kenora Ridge. The Recording Secretary attested that the legal notice had
been duly published in accordance with State Statutes and City Code.
Chris Remus, with James R. Hill, Inc. and Keith Sperbeck from Kenyon Holdings,
LLC were in attendance at tonight's meeting. Mr. Remus presented an overview of
their request. He indicated that they are requesting to plat three single family lots
that were platted in 2007 as Outlot B, Kent 46.
Associate Planner Frank Dempsey presented the planning report. Mr. Dempsey
stated that the Kent 46 development included a ghost plat showing three future
single family lots within Outlot B. He indicated that the three single family lots in
Kenora Ridge meet the requirements for lot size and lot width for the RS -3 District.
He indicated that fill will be required to construct homes on these three lots due to
the topography of the subject property.
Regarding the tree preservation plan, Mr. Dempsey indicated that the plan
identifies 48 significant trees and of those 48 trees, two are dead or damaged and
five (three trees on lot 1 and two trees on lot 3) are identified to be saved resulting
in a save ratio of 10.8 %. He stated that a minimum of two trees shall be planted on
each lot without at least two save trees.
Mr. Dempsey stated that Planning and Engineering Department staff recommend
approval of the Kenora Ridge preliminary and final plat subject to the 4 stipulations
listed in the February 10, 2012 planning report.
Chair Davis opened the hearing to the public for comment.

Greg Kot, 11280 Kenora Way
Mr. Kot had the following concerns:
➢ Why is the preliminary and final plats being considered at the same time?
He objects to this.
➢ Tree preservation. He wants to make sure that all the proper paperwork for
the tree preservation plan is complete.
➢ Because of the dramatic drops in elevations, a lot of fill will have to be
brought in. He would like to know how this dirt will be contained.
➢ Wants to see what the homes are going to look like that will be built on these
lots and who the builder will be. Wants to be sure the quality of the homes
are similar to the existing homes in this neighborhood.
➢ Will any retaining walls be built?
➢ Will the homes be built as soon as the fill is brought in? He does not want to
look at "for sale" signs for years.
Scott Alman, 16240 Kenora Court
Mr. Alman had the following concerns:
➢ Will any retaining walls be built?
➢ Wants to see the size and style of the homes being built.
➢ Will the builder sell the lots first and then take down the trees and build the
homes or will he build them as spec homes and then try to sell them?
Therese Marshik, 16338 Kent Trail
Ms. Marshik stated that she built the first home in the Kenwood Oaks
Development. She identified problems that occurred in the past with the
construction of homes in the Kenwood Oaks development as well as with the
development of Kent 46. She had the following additional concerns:
➢ Wants to be sure that the City watches the builders at all times to be sure that
mistakes that occurred previously won't happen again, such as wrongful tree
removal and fill placed in the wrong location.
➢ Because of the amount of fill that is proposed to be brought in, she suggested
that retaining walls be built prior to the fill being brought in. She feels that
the builder will be more careful where the fill goes if the retaining walls are
already in. In addition, this will help protect the trees located behind the
retaining walls.
➢ Would like the storm water drainage situation addressed so that fill does not
end up in Lee Lake and so no more basements get flooded.
Planning Commission Meeting
February 16, 2012
Page 5
➢ Wants the values of the proposed homes to be comparable to the values of
the current homes in the Kenwood Oaks development.
Commissioner Lillehei read the 4 stipulations that are listed in the February 10, 2012
planning report.
12.09 Motion was made and seconded to close the public hearing at 6:43 p.m.
Ayes: Lillehei, Davis, Blee, Grenz, Boerschel, Maguire.
Nays: 0
Abstain: Drotning
Chair Davis asked staff to address the public comments.
Mr. Dempsey stated that the tree preservation plan was prepared by a forester.
There are a lot of trees that are less than six inches in diameter on this property that
are not listed on the plan because they are not significant trees. Only the significant
trees have been identified on the plan as required by the Subdivision Ordinance.
He indicated that given the amount of fill that will be required to make these lots
buildable, only the perimeter trees can be saved.
Mr. Remus addressed the questions regarding how the fill will be contained on the
three lots. He indicated that City staff will inspect the property prior to the
developer importing any fill material. Mr. Remus was not sure if the fill would be
brought in on a lot by lot basis or if they would bring it in all at once. As far as
retaining walls, there is only one small retaining wall proposed and that would be
adjacent to Mr. Ahlmari s property on the north side of proposed Lot 1. The
retaining wall is not proposed to contain the fill, but rather to break the grade
difference between the two properties.
Mr. Morey stated that for approximately 15 years it has been City policy to process
preliminary and final plats simultaneously, especially in the case of smaller plats
with fewer lots.
Mr. Johnson stated he had not heard that storm water problems have become worse
in Kenwood Oaks since Kent 46 was developed. Ms. Marshik was asked to come
forward again and explain her perception of the storm water problems. She
indicated that there are homes that were not having storm water problems prior to
the Kent 46 development that are now getting water seeping up from the ground.
A control unit was put into the pond on Outlot A to help control the storm water,
but that did not alleviate the problem.
Chair Davis stated that the Pl annin g Commission is an advisory board to the City
Council and their job is to determine if a plat is consistent with the Zoning and
Planning Commission Meeting
February 16, 2012
Page 6
Subdivision Ordinances. The issues concerning home values, property taxes, and
who the builder is are beyond the Planning Commission's purview. Chair Davis
did encourage the neighbors to keep in touch with the developer and builder and
the City throughout the process.
Regarding the types of homes that are proposed to be built with this development,
Mr. Remus indicated that there are no specific plans at this time.
Chair Davis asked for comments from the Planning Commission. Discussion points
were:
• The groundwater issue was discussed. Mr. Johnson indicated that this is the
first he's heard of a problem, but he would be glad to meet with the residents
to discuss the issue further.
• The amount of fill being brought in was discussed. Mr. Remus was not sure
of the exact amount of fill needed.
• It was stated that the proposed homes must meet Zoning Ordinance
requirements. Mr. Morey indicated that the Zoning Ordinance requires the
site plan for new single family home building permits show the location of a
three -car garage even if the builder does not intend to build one to ensure
that there is enough room on the lot for a three -car garage meeting setback
requirements.
• Mr. Boerschel asked about the City requirements for tree preservation. Mr.
Dempsey stated that the Subdivision Ordinance requires the developer to
identify all significant trees within the property boundaries and identify the
significant trees that will be saved. City staff reviews the tree preservation
plan and determines if additional significant trees can be saved.
• Discussion regarding the repercussions if significant trees located outside the
plat boundaries are damaged with the development of the plat. Mr. Johnson
stated that tree protection fencing would be installed and inspected by the
City. If there were any trees outside the plat that were damaged by the
developer, it would be settled by the private property owners. If, as in this
case, the City owns the property outside the plat, the City would monitor the
development and it would be up to the City to notify the developer/ builder
of any tree damage on the City's property. Mr. Morey stated that if trees are
damaged, two to one tree replacement would be required.
• Mr. Johnson indicated that erosion control measures, including silt fencing, is
reviewed on a case -by -case situation.
• Mr. Dempsey stated that the boundaries of Outlot A are identified by
conservation area posts.
• Mr. Lillehei indicated that the residents did not have the best experience
with the Kenwood Oaks developers. The residents are sensitive to erosion
Pl annin g Commission Meeting
February 16, 2012
Page 7
and don't want any more erosion problems caused by the Kenora Way
development. It was made clear that the developer must contain all of the
soil on his property.
• The Planning Commission clarified that the City does not enforce private
covenants.
• Mr. Remus explained that a typical grading scenario would be for the
developer to establish erosion control, clear the trees /brush, then bring in
and stabilize the fill at a maximum slope of three to one. Construction of
homes on the lots would follow. He stated there is no need for retaining
walls because they can achieve three to one slopes at the rear of the three
proposed single family lots.
• Commissioner Blee asked if the Planning Commission could encourage the
planting of additional trees. Mr. Morey stated the requirement of at least
two trees per single family lot. Typically homeowners add landscaping that
suits their needs and tastes following the completion of the house
construction activities. Requiring the developer to install additional trees on
the lots prior to house construction could be detrimental due to the trees
being in the way of construction equipment.
12.10 Motion was made and seconded to recommend to City Council approval of the
Kenora Ridge preliminary and final plat subject to the following 4 stipulations:
1. The recommendations listed in the Engineering Department memorandum
dated February 9, 2012.
2. The recommendations of the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources
Committee.
3. A minimum of two trees shall be planted on each lot that does not have at
least two saved trees. Trees to be installed shall meet the size and species
requirements of the Zoning Ordinance.
4. All homes shall meet the following minimum setback requirements of the
RS -3, Single Family Residential zoning District:
Front Yard - 30 feet
Side Yard -10 feet
Rear Yard - 30 feet
Ayes: Davis, Blee, Grenz, Boerschel, Maguire, Lillehei.

ITEM H. CRESCENT RIDGE THIRD ADDITION
Chair Davis opened the public hearing to consider the application of Shamrock
Development for the preliminary plat of 111 single family lots to be known as
Planning Commission Meeting
February 16, 2012
Page 8
Crescent Ridge Third Addition. The Recording Secretary attested that the legal
notice had been duly published in accordance with State Statutes and City Code.
Jim Stanton from Shamrock Development presented an overview of his request.
Mr. Stanton stated that he is aware the temporary cul -de -sac at the eastern terminus
of 195th Street would require a temporary easement from the adjacent property
owners or would need to be pulled back to the west and constructed completely
within the Crescent Ridge Third Addition plat. He indicated he would meet with
the adjacent property owners to discuss the possibility of a temporary easement
and resolve the issue prior to submittal of the final plat.
Associate Planner Allyn Kuennen presented the planning report. Mr. Kuennen
stated that with the approval of a Comprehensive Plan and MUSA amendment in
2011 for the northerly 22 acres, the entire Crescent Ridge development is now
within the current MUSA.
Mr. Kuennen stated that the development is proposed to be completed in one
phase. Outlot A will be deeded to the City with the final plat of Crescent Ridge
Third Addition. Mr. Kuennen indicated that a 5 foot wide concrete sidewalk must
be installed on one side of all streets throughout the development and the
developer is responsible for this cost. He also indicated that an 8 foot wide asphalt
trail must be constructed on both sides of 194th Street, with the City and developer
sharing this cost. He also stated that 190tII Street shall be upgraded to a paved rural
section from Holyoke Avenue to the plat's eastern boundary.
Mr. Kuennen stated that Planning and Engineering Department staff recommend
approval of the Crescent Ridge Third Addition preliminary plat, subject to the 12
stipulations listed in the February 9, 2012 planning report.
Commissioner Lillehei clarified that the cul -de -sac at the end of 195th Street would
be temporary and that the developer will need to contact the neighbors to get a
temporary easement from them, or put the entire cul -de -sac on the developer's
property. He questioned the need for the temporary cul -de -sac. City staff indicated
that this is a Subdivision Ordinance requirement to allow snow plows emergency
vehicles, and school buses adequate area to turn around.
Chair Davis opened the hearing to the public for comment.
Susan Mortensen, 8487 195 Street W.
Ms. Mortensen is the adjacent property owner who submitted the letter included in
the Planning Commission packet. Her concern is to keep the cul -de -sac at the east
end of 195th Street within public right -of -way or on the developer's property. Ms.
Pl annin g Commission Meeting
February 16, 2012
Page 9
Mortensen indicated that she has no problem with the plat but she does not want to
have the cul -de -sac on her property.
Bonnie and Lawrence Schweich, 8719190tH Street
Their concerns are:
➢ Claims that he has never heard from the City or the developer regarding
this plat until he recently returned from Florida and received his mail for the
public hearing notice.
➢ Believes that 195th Court should not be a cul -de -sac and should just connect
to Halo Avenue. Feels that it would cost less to snow plow and be easier for
emergency vehicles to get through if it was a continuous road.
➢ Would like the roadway easement across his property verified as he does
not think the City has a right to construct Harappa Avenue across his
property to connect to 190th Street.
➢ He believes that north of Hilldale Avenue he has the equivalent of
approximately three lots that could have been incorporated into this plat.
He believes as a courtesy the developer or City should have called him to
discuss this option to avoid landlocking the property.
➢ Feels that Holyoke Avenue is very dangerous and should have been "fixed"
with this development. It's a bad situation with the gravel from 190th Street
being tracked onto Holyoke Avenue, which is paved. The gravel from 190th
Street causes potential safety issues for cars and motorcyclists on the
Holyoke Avenue curve.
Mark Zweber 12320 210t Street
Mr. Zweber has no problem with this development. He owns the property south of
the existing homes on 195th Street and would like an explanation of why this
development was brought into the MUSA when the City won't bring his property
into the MUSA.
12.11 Motion was made and seconded to close the public hearing at 7:45 p.m.
Ayes: Blee, Grenz, Drotning, Boerschel, Maguire, Lillehei, Davis.
Nays: 0
Chair Davis asked the staff to address the public comments.
Chair Davis asked Mr. Kuennen to address the landlocked issue that both Ms.
Mortensen and Mr. Schweich commented on. Mr. Kuennen stated that they are
separate issues and indicated that the parcel referred to by Mr. Schweich is located
north of the plat and the property referred to by Ms. Mortensen is located to the
Planning Commission Meeting
February 16, 2012
Page 10
east of the plat. Commissioner Lillehei asked for clarification as to why the
landlocked issues are separate and when would they be addressed.
Mr. Kuennen explained that property is landlocked when there is no street frontage
for direct access to the public right -of -way. The parcel that Ms. Mortensen is
referring to is accessed via a private driveway easement that extends through her
property from the end of 195th Street. This property does not currently have direct
access to a public street. However, this situation will be remedied and the property
will have direct access to public right -of -way when 194th Street is extended to the
east boundary of the Crescent Ridge Third Addition plat.
Mr. Kuennen went on to explain that the triangular shaped property owned by Mr.
Schweich that is located north of the Crescent Ridge plat, south of 190th Street and
east of Holyoke Avenue is not landlocked because it abuts public right -of -way. Mr.
Kuennen also explained that this triangular property owned by Mr. Schweich is
encumbered by a public roadway easement, which allows the City the right to
extend Harappa Avenue north to 190th Street, and is not developable into lots.
Chair Davis asked about the dangerous intersections of 190th Street and Holyoke
Avenue. Mr. Kuennen indicated that the City would not allow offset intersections
like this to be built today. He stated that a preliminary traffic study of the Holyoke
Avenue/ 190th Street intersection is being prepared. The preliminary results of the
study indicates several options that could be considered and implemented in the
future when funding is available or when the adjacent property to the north
develops that would improve the safety of Holyoke Avenue and the 190th Street
intersections.
Mr. Morey confirmed that this is a very preliminary traffic study and has not been
reviewed by the City Council. Mr. Morey indicated that the City is well aware of
the dangers at these intersections and the City is looking at possible long range
improvements to see what can be done to improve traffic safety. Funding and
timing of the improvements, cooperation of property owners, and other factors
need to be examined. Mr. Kuennen added that the eastern leg of 190th Street will
be improved to a paved rural roadway with the Crescent Ridge Third Addition plat
that should help keep the gravel off Holyoke Avenue at that intersection.
Referring to Mr. Zweber's question regarding the MUSA line, Mr. Morey stated
that the previous owner of the northerly portion of the Crescent Ridge Third
Addition preliminary plat, Premier Bank, formally applied for an amendment to the
Comprehensive Plan to bring the property into the MUSA and also to rezone the
property to be similar to the zoning for the remainder of the Crescent Ridge
development. That application was processed and approved by the City Council.
Planning Commission Meeting
February 16, 2012
Page 11
Mr. Stanton subsequently purchased the property and incorporated it into the
Crescent Ridge development.
Mr. Morey further stated the City is going to be studying the staged MUSA
expansion areas in the 2008 Comprehensive Plan. This study, which will be
completed in 2012, will make recommendations to the City Council in terms of
MUSA timing. Mr. Zweber's property is in Expansion Area A. Mr. Morey stated
that the property owner also has the option to apply for a Comprehensive Plan
amendment at any time. Mr. Zweber can contact the Planning Department to
discuss MUSA timing in more detail.
Chair Davis asked for comments from the Planning Commission. Discussion points
were:
• There was a discussion regarding the location of the temporary cul -de -sac at
the east end of 195th Street and what exactly the Planning Commission
would be approving tonight. Mr. Kuennen clarified that the developer has
two options: either obtain the required easements from the adjacent
property owners to place the temporary cul -de -sac on their property or to
pull the cul -de -sac back to the west and place it all within the plat.
Approving the current design of the preliminary plat allows either option to
occur without the need for the plat to be reviewed by the Planning
Commission again.
• What is the process if Mr. Stanton wants to revise 195th Court to a through
street? Staff indicated that Mr. Stanton can move forward with the current
plat design and if he chooses to make changes to the 195th Court cul -de -sac in
the future he can do so by re- platting just the 195th Court cul -de -sac area
without affecting the rest of the plat. Mr. Morey commented that the public
hearing notice stated 111 lots, so if that number were to increase, then a new
public hearing would be required.
• The preliminary Holyoke Avenue /190th Street intersection study was
discussed. The preliminary results of the study indicate that future
improvements to this intersection do not impact the Crescent Ridge Third
Addition preliminary plat. It was clarified that the developer is contributing
towards future improvements to Holyoke Avenue and 190th Street as is
standard for all plats adjacent to roadways that are not fully improved.
• There was a discussion regarding when temporary cul -de -sacs are required.
Commissioner Grenz requested clarification of why a temporary cul -de -sac
is required on 195th Street, and not on 193rd and 194th streets. The Zoning
Ordinance allows a stub street that is 200 feet or less in length or has no more
than two dwelling units to be constructed without a temporary cul -de -sac.
The stub street at the end of 194th Street is only one lot deep and has access
Planning Commission Meeting
February 16, 2012
Page 12
from Halo Avenue not 194th Street, therefore a temporary cul -de -sac is not
required. The stub street at the end of 193rd Street is less than 200 feet and
therefore does not require a temporary cul -de -sac. A temporary cul -de -sac is
required at the end of 195th Street due to multiple driveway accesses from
the properties to the east and due to the pre - existing conditions with homes
on the south side of 195th Street.
• Commissioner Grenz felt strongly that Holyoke Avenue should be re- routed
through the Crescent Ridge Third Addition plat to correct the geometry of
the curves and to align 190th Street as a standard intersection as was
proposed on a plat submitted by a previous developer in 2008. He felt that if
this development proceeds as proposed, the City has lost options of
improving Holyoke Avenue within this area. Commissioner Drotning
indicated the 2008 version of the Crescent Ridge plat was pulled from
consideration by that developer because the cost to relocate Holyoke Avenue
through his plat was not financially feasible without some public funding.
• Double frontage lots were discussed briefly, along with their marketability.
Mr. Stanton commented that given the cost of certain things, he would rather
not have double frontage lots, but the plat just didn't work without them.
The double frontage lots in Crescent Ridge Third Addition meet ordinance
requirements. This issue will be discussed with the third phase of the
Subdivision and Zoning Ordinance amendments.
Lawrence Schweich asked to come forward to speak again. Chair Davis granted
him the opportunity even though the public hearing had been closed. Mr.
Schweich reiterated that his property north of this plat is landlocked and he did not
think that there was a roadway easement at this location. He stated he would seek
action in a court of law if he has to.
Mr. Schweich stated he doesri t like that there will be more traffic coming out onto
Holyoke Avenue and that a study is being done, but nothing is getting
accomplished to fix Holyoke Avenue now. He stated he has a right to tell the
Planning Commission about the unsafe conditions at the Holyoke Avenue/ 190th
Street intersection. Chair Davis reminded Mr. Schweich that the public hearing is
closed and called for a motion on the preliminary plat. Assistant City Attorney
Poehler stated that his property is not considered landlocked and if there is a road
easement across this property, it would be considered undevelopable and the City
would have the right to extend Harappa Avenue through the property to 190th
Street.
12.12 Motion was made and seconded to recommend to City Council approval of the
Crescent Ridge Third Addition preliminary plat subject to the following 12
stipulations:
Planning Commission Meeting
February 16, 2012
Page 13
1. The recommendations outlined in the February 9, 2012 Engineering
report.
2. The recommendations of the Park, Recreation & Natural Resources
Committee.
3. Outlot A must be deeded to the City at the time of final plat.
4. Screening and berming adjacent to Holyoke Avenue, 190th Street and
194th Street must be installed consistent with the approved landscape
plan. A $1,000 cash escrow must be submitted with the building permit
application for each of these lots. This escrow will be in addition to the
landscape /sod escrow required for each lot at the time of building
permit.
5. The side and rear yards of the lots abutting Holyoke Avenue, 190th Street
and 194th Street must be sodded to the edge of the right -of -way or trail.
6. A five foot wide concrete sidewalk must be installed on one side of all
streets throughout the development as shown on the preliminary plat
plans. The developer is responsible for the construction and cost of
installing the sidewalks.
7. An 8 foot wide asphalt trail must be constructed on both sides of 194th
Street. The City and developer will share the cost of the installation of the
trails (3/8th paid by the City and 5/8th paid by the developer).
8. As part of the improvements associated with Crescent Ridge Third
Addition, the developer shall upgrade 190th Street to a paved rural
section from Holyoke Avenue to the plat's eastern boundary. The
developer will receive a credit for all street improvements within 190th
Street, consistent with City policy. The credit will be based on an
estimate provided by the developer's engineer and include associated
engineering, contract administration and construction staking costs,
estimated to be 15% of the construction cost. A cash fee for the future
upgrade of 190th Street will be collected with the final plat based on the
current rate in effect at the time of final plat.
9. The eastern portion of 195th Street must be upgraded to a urban local
street within a 60 foot wide right -of -way consistent with the approved
Crescent Ridge Second Addition preliminary plat. The cost of the 195th
Street road improvements will be funded by the developer. Existing
adjacent property owners will not be assessed for the road improvements
and access to the existing adjacent residents must be maintained by the
developer during the reconstruction of 195th Street via a temporary road.
10. A temporary cul -de -sac is required to be constructed at the eastern
terminus of 195th Street. If the developer cannot obtain the temporary
easements necessary for the construction of the temporary cul -de -sac on
the adjacent properties to the east prior to submittal of the final plat, the
developer must construct the temporary cul -de -sac completely within the
Crescent Ridge plat. A temporary cul -de -sac, with an 80 foot diameter
Planning Commission Meeting
February 16, 2012
Page 14
situated in the 195t" Street ROW and in a temporary easement on Lot 7,
Block 8, Crescent Ridge Third Addition would be acceptable.
11. Barricades must be installed by the developer at the east end of 193rd
Street and 194th Street until the streets are extended in the future.
12. The development must comply with the following setback requirements:

but thought that by putting this development in, we are limiting our options for
safety improvements to Holyoke Avenue and 190th Street.
The next Planning Commission meeting is scheduled for March 1, 2012.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 8:40 p.m.
