At this time Mr. Byron Watschke and his Planning Consultant, Mr. Karl Dale,
presented the preliminary plat of Lake Villa Golf Estates.
Mr. Watschke gave a brief explanation of the many months of meetings that the
plat had been considered at by the City advisory committees. He then called
on Mr. Dale to present the plat in detail to the council. Mr. Dale reviewed
the original preliminary plat as it was filed and the approved preliminary
plat from the Planning Commission. Mr. Dale explained that the approved plat
had 187 single family lots with an average lot size of 24,000 square feet.
He indicated that there are 64 lots out of the 187 that had between 15,000 and
20,000 square feet. He explained that the Planning Commission had recommended,
and the applicant had applied for, a P.U.D. special use permit to accommodate
the 64 lots less than 20,000 square feet.
Mr. Dale showed a typical lot plan and covenants. which would control the type
of housing that would be permitted on each lot so that it conformed to the
lot topography and minimized the need for grading and disturbance of the
natural terrain and environmental assets.
Mr. Dale further explained that the applicant had applied for a rezoning of
Outlot A from R-1B single family to R-3B multiple family for the eventual
construction of multiple units adjacent to the Honeyraell Golf Course. He
explained that the developer would agree in the development agreement to
have the City rezone the property back to single .family residential ifs at the
time Outlot A is presented for platting approval, the golf course was not
in existence.
Mr. Dale explained that the development phasing of the plat would be from
east to west and would probably take five years to complete.
Mr, Watschke stated that the developer was in agreement with the two canditions
recommended by the Park and Recreation Director concerning a cash contribution
at the rate in effect when the property is final platted and need: for trails
to be provided through the property in addition to the cash contribution.
The City staff explained that the recommendation was not to take any property
from the plat for active recreation due to the topography within the plat
and the cost involved to make a site of suitable size into an active rec-
reation area. Rather, it was recommended the City take cash and use the funds
to develop a more appropriate site in the vicinity.
