Show Lakeside Review LAKESIDE Development vote tabled By SUSAN TANNER HOLMES Standard-Examine- r corresoondent - FARMINGTON More input and changes are being required of the Farmington Greens development, a 98.3-acr- e develop-- t ment in west Farmington, before develop- ment plan approval will be given. About 50 west Farmington residents turned out to express their views on the development at a public hearing, but a motion to table the item until city council concerns were reviewed took precedence over the public hearing. Council members expressed concern over the development's wetlands, open space cation and the lot size. , This is a difficult issue. I don't believe we're at a point where we can make a decision, and I think it is unwise to force this council to give up or down vote, said David Connors, a council member. David Dixon, a council member, said it is not the quantity of the open space but the allocation of it that he takes issue with. This development turns its back on the wetland preserve. Eighty percent of the open space surrounds about 20 percent of the property. The Planning Commission would like to see the minimum lot size up to 7,000 square feet, said David Petersen, city plannerzon-in- g administrator. The developer wants to develop the project in phases. Our ordinance allows us the latitude to give a master plan approval for the development. This motion is . T, or by cil in proval, not preliminary plat approval. What is the number of lots we are looking at?" said developer representative Gerald Tully of Tully Design Group Inc. A lots is that key point to remember in half-acr- e no one says we have to build large homes. We are way out in the gray areas. I've tried to follow as many Farmington codes as possible, even when they don't exist. "We've presented a very balanced plan. We've spent a year going over it and this is a very good compromise plan, said Tully. "We have provided a outside corridor trail system that will never go away. Weve tried to produce a good neighborhood, not just another subdivision. There are a lot of community benefits in this plan. Army Corps of Engineers representative Nicole Braspemickx provided wetland information to the council. "This site is unique because it has 15 acres of wetlands. The first plan is technically feasible, but not my first choice. All the wetlands would be put in an easement and they have been shimmied to fit the lot configuration. There is room to mitigate and lessen the impact. "It's good to have the Corps involved at this phase, said Braspemickx. "From our standpoint this more recent plan is a nicer community. It has open space, green space, services and the cluster development would be considered." DLxon asked Braspemickx if the yield plan developed by the design groyp accurately re- 30-fo- ot The council expressed concern over the actual number of lots that could be created in the area. The developer has asked for the yield plan to consist of 179 lots. City staff said in notes to the city council that there could be five less than that number. Building ordinance coverage has increased from S266.068 to 5284,666. The city will cover nine new automobiles and increase the treasurer bond coverage from a 5140,000 limit to a "The yield plan is not a theoretical exersaid Dixon. We need to know how much should we allow you to massage the wetlands to get your yield plan. Other council concerns included questions over what areas should be left in open space, who would have access and who should, maintain those areas. Council members expressed the desire for each deed to have the potential owner understand that he would be moving into an agricultural area where there will be animals. cise, In an earlier public hearing, area residents have expressed concern that the smells of the animals might bring complaints from new residents. The mayor appointed a committee to work with the developer to iron out the lot size and wetland problems. City council member Gary Elliott was appointed as chairman. CALL State University Sept.
