Commissioner Duffy questioned Mr. Brown regarding the drainage? Mr. Brown stated
the ultimate run off would be flowed into the creek as suggested by staff and using the
detention facilities that are currently in place. He stated the module did not show the
need for detention, so we have asked for the waiver. Commissioner Duffy stated you
can not increase the flow from your property over what is currently in place. City
Attorney, Matthew Boyle concurred that being a fair general statement. Commissioner
Duffy stated this whole grassy area will now become concrete and therefore you will
collect more because the absorption rate of concrete is zero whereas the absorption
rate of grass is anywhere between .6 to .9. Mr. Brown concurred. Commissioner Duffy

is being released. Mr. Brown stated that being a fair general statement. Commissioner
Duffy stated you have an obligation so that you do not increase the flow to that creek
that would jeopardy the people downstream. Mr. Brown concurred and stated if the
city's hydraulic analysis states this project needs any detention or retention, it will be
constructed. Commissioner Duffy questioned if Mr. Brown's engineers have done any
studies? Mr. Brown replied his engineers have done some studies and all have been
submitted to the city's engineers. Because this is for zoning, we will have a more in
depth look once we get to platting.

comp/eted? Mr. Brown stated the tree study is completed and all will be provided to the
city for platting.
Commissioner Duffy stated this project will be the most dense area in the city. He

product works for this size area. Mr. Brown stated not just using these homes for empty

widening of Church Street and the trail? Mr Brown replied yes, the right of way for two
lanes for Church Street and the 10 foot trail.

the Village town homes less than a mile down the road from this project. Kirk Wellwood,
the builder, stated his quality will be of the quality that would see in a million dollar home.
Commissioner Duffy stated there are a lot of small units being built in such a small area
that there is a concem that there will be empty units sitting that will have to be rented or
leased or sold too cheaply. Mr. Wellwood stated the market is for the 'baby boomers"
who want this smaller unit.
Commissioner Taylor stated the Commission has approved three high density projects
already,• there is a concem that there is not enough buyers for this product.
Commissioner Taylor stated being in the real estate industry and stated the 'baby
boomers" are the market, however, they are looking for one story units. Mr. Wellwood
replied he is able to accommodate those by putting the master bedroom on the first floor
and all other bedrooms on the second floor. He stated all of the front entry garages will
have the masters on the first floor. Commissioner Taylor questioned Mr. Wellwood

Commissioner Bartkowski questioned staff regarding if this project would be the highest
in density and would the lot sizes be the smallest in the city? Barry LeBaron replied
correct Commissioner Bartkowski questioned staff if the realignment of Church Street
would have an impact on the current zoning, would it be more appealing as commeroial
once Church Street is completed? Bany LeBaron replied looking at that when this
rezoning request came forward. This property got its commercial zoning in the 90s. He
stated it being a good location for office use, garden space, stand alone offices.

density.
Commissioner Byerly questioned staff regarding what is the density in other areas in the
city? Barry LeBaron replied Spring Gardens addition, down by Cheek Sparger and
Jackson Road is around 25 fo 40 units. The Heritage Oaks addition will be 124 units. In

units. City Council approved a mixture of town home and smaller lot developments at
Sanders Lane and SH26. There were 24 townhomes as part of that project and about
50 single family detached lots.

with what Church Street is on the east side. Commissioner Dudziak stated this will be
another arterial street. Barry LeBaron concurred with a trail on the south side.
Commissioner Byerly questioned staff for clarity if Church Street will be curved? Barry
LeBaron replied correct, it will have aslight s-curve. Chad Bartee, City Engineer has
answers to questions regarding the time frame. Barry LeBaron replied fhe realignment
is in the planning stages now.

could change once Church Street is realigned.

commercial.

that the Commission needs to stand down on this project.

is much more urbanized because of the traffic flowing through it. Commissioner
