land and proposed a two phase development. There would be a total of 110 lots.

documentation. Mr. Debruin asked if there were any questions that he could answer.
Chairman Silvia also asked if any Commissioners had questions. Vice-Chairman
Salter spoke and asked for clarification regarding the number of lots in the
development due to the Preliminary plat showing twelve and the report showing
sixteen. Mr. Debruin announced the applicant was present at the meeting and could
clarify the discrepancy and also stated that he believed the applicant may not be sure
on the exact number of lots yet. Chairman Silvia and Vice-Chairman Salter informed
the board that they would need to vote on approving either twelve or sixteen lots.

Commissioner Kienzle asked if they knew what Elementary school it would feed into,
and Staff announced it would be Will Rogers. Chairman Silvia asked if there were any
more questions for staff. Commissioner Cowen asked if the aerobic systems on the
far west boundary were the twelve being spoken of. Mr. Debruin affirmed his
question and pointed out the lots marked in yellow would have the aerobic systems.
Vice-Chairman Salter also asked about the upkeep to the private roads in the cul-de
sac and if they were wide enough to be approved by Fire Department standards. Mr.
Debruin informed him that they would be kept up to city standards and that there
was a deviation requested regarding the length, and Mr. Debruin commented that
there is approval up to a thousand feet. Commissioner Cowen stated that he believed
the applicant would accommodate gravity flow for the other four lots if possible and
with the condition the city sewer worked. Mr. Debruin agreed. Commissioner Kienzle
asked when the board would see this development come before the Planning
Commission again and the Commissioners informed her that a hearing for a Final
plat would be turned in and Commissioner Kienzle asked if they knew of a possible
timeline. Mr. Debruin stated that he believed it was fairly immediate. He also stated

were none. Chairman Silvia asked if there were any further questions for staff, there
were none.

asked if any person that was in favor of the development would like to come forward
and answer any questions. Andrew Wilson, engineer for the applicant, came forward
and announced that he would be happy to answer any questions the Commissioners
had. Mr. Wilson informed the Commissioners that the discrepancy with the number of
lots pertained to the area the lots were in would be difficult to attach to sewer.
Chairman Silvia asked Mr. Wilson if he would like Staff to vote on twelve lots or
sixteen and after brief discussion, Mr. Wilson mentioned twelve.
Andrew Wilson informed Commissioners that it would be as quick as they can go and
that they hoped to see the board next month for the Final plat.

was a detention pond and staff stated there was and Commissioner Kerbs proceeded
to ask if there would be circulation in the detention pond. Chairman Silvia asked the
applicant if they had any information regarding circulating the water and Mr. Wilson
stated that he believed there would probably be a fountain to lower any algae growth
but haven’t discussed the issue yet. Commissioner Cowen asked Mr. Wilson if he
could make that included on the Final plat and he agreed. Chairman Silvia asked if
