PRD Meeting 11-25-02 Page 20 Mr. Mamie said but according to this, Planning & Zoning really passed on everything except those two areas where they were split. With the 35' and the 25' and the setbacks and so forth. Mr. Marquardt, Mrs. Mills and Mrs. Cinco said just the one area. Mr. Samac said there is a minimum project size, minimum acreage, maximum density was recommended at 4, but like I said that one area that caused a lot of discussion~f more or 50% of an unbuildable area-is something you might want to look at and that's the reason I brought it up. Also the fact that that was in there and it's in your draft that's before you and I should've taken out and I missed it. Mrs. Cinco said I know Bernie and a few of the Councilpeople were here for a number of your long Planning & Zoning sessions. So, most of us have heard this discussion time and again. I commend Planning & Zoning for doing as much work as they did on this and I know it seems like they were going over and over and over and over the same thing. They put a lot of thought and they put a lot of work in this. And most of these items that you brought up I know that I was here listening to their discussion and know where they are coming from on those issues. So, they have it pretty much under control. Mrs. Mills said I think they do and have done an excellent job on this. Mrs. Cinco said they have done a great job. , Mr. Samac said I think also, if there's anything that I overlooked or missed, feel free. I think we've pretty much covered it probably by the time we've discussed them here we'll be on them again, so.... Dr. Parker said I have a question. As far as the number of .03(c), as far as the number of attached units, maybe Mr. Farmer, Mr. Marrotte whoever, one of the members, or Mr. Marquardt can, I mean, what were the thoughts as far as why not 2 attached units? Mr. Marquardt said it was for variety... Mr. Marrotte said you can't have more than 3. Dr. Parker said but why not say no more than 2 attached units? Was there any reason that was or wasn't something different? Why did you go as high as 3 attached units as opposed to 2 attached units? Mr. Farmer said it was more like a design thing; I mean we didn't want to see a whole string of them--you know like, we didn't want more than 3 but with 3 what you could do so they're not all in a row, I mean, you could build a central unit which isn't going to have any corner windows, you could pull that forward so it would have corner windows in it. It would soften in and I am sure you would like that. You've got to make this financially feasible to a builder or it doesn't matter what we pass, they won't build.
