Mr. Watschke explained each plan and the changes that had been made from the original plan which a public hearing was opened in front o£ the Planning Commission on March 20, 1980. Mr. Watschke explained that in response to citizen comments and concerns from the neighborhood adjacent to the property, that the number of dwelling units in the PUD had been changed in .type. and number. The revised plan called for more duplex and four-plea units, and included townhouse units with lesser number of apartment units.. Mr. Watschke further explained that the access of the PUD to 188th street had been changed so that no direct connection would be available between the Lakeridge Addition and the Lakeway Park PUD. He further stated that he did not care whether or not the City opened access between the two or closed it, or whether or not.. the' City kept 188th Street opened to Trunk Highway 50. He stated that their major access would be via the extension of 185th Street west of Highway 50. At this time Mayor Lekson opened the meeting for questions and comments. Mr. David Licht, City Planning Consultant, explained that the Planning Commission had recommended approval of the concept plan but had recommended further study of the road connection between Lakeridge and Lakeway-and the status of 188th Street connection to Highway 50. At this time Mike Murphy, 18801 Jordan Trail, asked about the future of 188th Street. Mr. Licht explained that the original plan had called for the closing of 188th Street at TH 50 due to the dangerous condition of that intersection, but that the revised plan showed Joplin Avenue connecting to 188th Street with access onto TH 50 at least for the time being. He further stated that Jordan Avenue would have under the revised plan access. to 188th Street for the traffic wishing to use 188th Street to connect to I-35 and Minnr~g Road. He stated that Jordan Avenue could be made a one-way street so that.traffic -1- . ~ June 16,0 out of the Lakeway Park PUD could not enter Jordan Trail, as one alternative, or that the Jordan Avenue could be cul-de-sacced with no access to 188th Street. Anita Clair, 18788 Jordan Trail, read a letter expressing her concern about the proposed PUD she said was the consensus of many of her neighbors. The letter stated opposition to the proposal for multiple housing and the other proposed development types. Mr: Watschke stated that he has owned the property involved in the application for six years. Mr. Steve Grohoski, 18848 Joplin Avenue, stated that in his opinion the intersection of 188th Street and TH 50 was a dangerous intersection and could be closed even if it would cause some minor inconvenience. He further stated that all of the people that he had sold lots to in the Lakeridge Addition, as the developer of Lakeridge, were, advised by him that 188th Street would probably be closed at TH 50 in the future, and that the property north of 188th. Street may-well be developed far other .than single family housing as it had been zoned. He stated that in his opinion the property involved in the application was a very difficult piece of property to develop due to its terrain, and that it was not economically_ feasible to deveop it into single family housing lots. At this time councilman Zaun asked Mr. Licht about his views as to the concept of land use in this PUD.. Mr. Licht stated that he felt that there was a good transition from the single family neighborhood of Lakeridge on the south. He stated that the developer had presented. in his revised plan a transition involving duplexes, 'to four-plexes, to townhouses, to apartment units, and then into office uses on the south side of the 185th Street extension. He stated that just having open space does not represent good buffering. At this time Mr. Watschke reminded the council that the revised PUD concept plan calls for a total of 89 dwelling units compared to the original plan proposal of 130 dwelling units. Mr. Farrell advised the council that there would be an agreement between the City and Mr. Watschke on the development of the PUD, and that even if Mr. Watschke sold any part or all of it to ,other buyers that.-they would be bound by the terms of that agreement in the future development of the property. Mr. Thomas Thompson asked about the sewer capacity of the lines in Lakeridge and whether or not they could. handle the sewage flow. from the PUD. The .City Administrator explained .that the sewer system in the Lakeway Park PUD would not use any of the pipes located in the Lakeridge Addition and the Conveyance of sewage to the trunk system...' Councilman Zaun asked Mr. Watschke about his staging plans for the project Mr. Watschke stated that it would probably take five years to completely develop the entire project. Mayor Lekson stated that the reason the City was entertaining to the development of this property under a Planned Unit Development is that the City retains -much more control over the future development by the PUD process than through normal platting:. He stated that it was the desire of the council to approve a project which would be a credit to the neighborhood and the entire City. 80.292 Motion was made by Spande, seconded by Sindt to approve the concept plan of the Lakeway Park PUD with the exception of the street access and future use of 188th Street, which is to be studied further by the staff and Planning Commission.

The City Administrator explained that it would be necessary to call a new hearing on the rezoning of certain lots within the Foxborough addition for the rezoning from single family. residence to two family residence due to a few changes in the lot and block description. in the final plat as compared to the-original rezoning hearing held earlier this year. Therefore, no action can be taken on .the ordinance rezoning the lots at this time. At this time the City Council took up consideration of the preliminary plat known as Lakeview Heights located east of Highway 50 and south of 185th Street. Mr. Jerry Everson was present to present the plat and indicated that the Planning Commission had recommended denial of the 47 lot preliminary plat for reasons which he questioned. He also stated that he had prepared a 45 lot version of the plat which the council had received along with a letter from him. Mr. Steve Grohoski spoke to the council and expressed his concern as the developer of the Woodridge .Addition located to the northeast of this property due to the small lot size being proposed for this. plat as compared to -other lots in the vacinity. He stated that in his opinion the lots should be larger with a lesser number in the plat to maintain the character of the area. He stated that this proposed plat in .his opinion would be detrimental to his property located to the north of it, and he may have to take legal action if the plat were approved if presented. The mayor stated that the council had received copies of the Planning Consul tant City Engineer reports on the plat, and that the plat did meet all. of the minimum requirements set forth in the zoning ordinance' and subdivision .ordinance for its location. 80.295 .After further discussion, a motion was made by Zaun, seconded by Nelson to approve the preliminary plat of Lakeview Heights-with 47 lots.
