John Miller, 1025 Unity Avenue North, owner of property north of site, stated he circulated a petition which was submitted to the Planning Commission opposing the project. He stated most of his neighbors did not feel that this was the proper use of the land, they like the large lots, privacy, owners have lived in their homes a long time, expressed concern over potential water problems. Steve Yingst, 900 North Lilac Drive, stated the neighborhood has been very stable and has 2nd generation of families still living on the property, expressed concern over level of traffic, Highway 100 frontage road, already sees a lot of traffic even though it is a dead end, if project goes ahead it will limit the scope of what can be done with his property, feels the neighborhood should have a say in what goes on around them, feels all three parcels should be combined into one parcel, they should wait until Highway 100 reconstruction is completed, if the parcels are combined a number of single family homes could be built and that development of townhomes will change the character of the neighborhood. Regular Meeting of the City Council October 1, 1996 Page 4 Public Hearings: Amendment to Comprehensive Land Use Map - 912 North Lilac Drive Ordinance #150 - Rezoning to Multiple Family (M-1) Zoning District - 912 North Lilac Drive and Preliminary Design Plan Approval - PUD #73 - Lilac Court Townhomes Continued Brian Bennett, 931 Toledo Avenue North, owner of Outlot, stated he supports the previous speaker, asked questions about the easement on the property and landscaping of the proposed site, expressed concern over off-street parking, use of garages for business use, resale of units, supports the development of all three parcels at the same time.

Joyce Miller, 1025 Unity Avenue North, expressed concern over high density, traffic problems, feels the change will effect the value of their property, property taxes, being built too close to their property, water levels, and would like to see single family homes built there. Sid Robin, 921 Toledo Avenue North, agrees with previous speakers, expressed concern over off-street parking for proposal, expressed concern for quality of homes and transient property owners, value of property, stated single family homes would be better for the area. Steve Robin, 5901 Laurel Avenue, parents live at 921 Toledo Avenue North, agrees with the previous speakers, feels people built there because of low density, feels the property owners are being held hostage with this development, doesn't think that empty nesters will purchase the homes, asked about the covenants for the property, traffic patterns, highway noise, and higher density, and doesn't feel the development is consistent with the neighborhood. Mark Hendrickson, 4945 Winsdale Street, asked questions about clarification of affordable housing under the livable communities act and feels this project would not qualify.

Regular Meeting of the City Council October 1, 1996 Page 5 Public Hearings: Amendment to Comprehensive Land Use Map - 912 North Lilac Drive Ordinance #150 - Rezoning to Multiple Family (M-1) Zoning District - 912 North Lilac Drive and Preliminary Design Plan Approval PUD #73 Lilac Court Townhomes Continued MOVED by Johnson, seconded by Micks and motion carried to deny the amendment to the comprehensive land use map for 917 North Lilac Drive for the following reasons: 1. The time is not ripe for amending the comprehensive land use map. There are two other underdeveloped or undeveloped parcels adjacent to the subject property. It would be better planning to consider all of these parcels as a package when considering the amendment to the comprehensive land use map for this area. 2. There is some uncertainty regarding future frontage road width and alignment due to the future upgrading of T.H. 100. Until these plans are finalized, changing the uses of this property to a more intense usage is inappropriate due to the need to properly serve this more intense land use.

Regular Meeting of the City Council October 1, 1996 Page 13 Public Hearing - Preliminary Plat Approval - ValleySic uare 3rd Addition - Continued MOVED Micks, seconded by Johnson and motion carried to approve the preliminary plat approval for Valley Square 3rd Addition subject to the following conditions: 1. The City Engineer should make a determination as to all permanent easement locations before the plat returns to the City Council for its final approval. 2. There should be no park or storm water management dedication in connection with the plat, but the City Council should reserve the right to revisit the matter prior to final disposition of any land within the plat that is currently owned by the City or HRA. 3. The City Council should grant a variance to allow Maren Lane to remain at its current width of fifty feet. The following findings should be part of the record: a. Maren Lane is an already -platted street necessary for carrying utilities and gaining access to and from adjacent properties but of minimal use to the general public and with a planned life span of limited duration. b. Widening Maren Lane would result in the loss of parking from one or both strip shopping centers along Wnnetka Avenue and would either bring the right-of-way undesirably close to Bassett Creek or have a potentially negative impact on the vacant supermarket property. c. The special circumstances of this subdivision proposal arise from its intended purpose of providing an identified public benefit in the form of clearly dedicated public rights-of-way, clean and simple property descriptions, erasure of historical clouds on the titles of certain properties, and reduction of existing nonconformities on the strip center properties to better position them for long term survival in case the HRA is ultimately unable to complete a major redevelopment project in Area B of Valley Square. d. The nature of these special circumstances make it unreasonable for the City to adhere strictly to the rules for granting variances as established in City Code Section 12.54, and in effect make it of benefit to the public welfare for the City to grant a variance from the standard variance requirements. e. The variance to maintain Maren Lane at fifty feet in width will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to any property in the neighborhood of Maren Lane.
