PRD Meeting 11-25-02 Page 7 down they are approximately 2,500 square feet and most, if not all of them, have basements. The first 2 units that were built may not have basement areas but the others, like the one in the photograph, they do have full basements in them. The density is-the density in there is like 3 or a little over 3 units per acre. I could add, too, this development-they had begun the development of Landerhaven (what was the old golf course there) and were going to develop the entire site with a condominium project, two units went in-the first two that are in this site here with this Landerhaven Court and they-once those 2 models were built is when things changed; they went to-had the rezoning redone to Office Park and this area here was pretty much a residual piece of property that had no value for development of an office. That's why they ended up developing it as this condominium project and from what I understand, the people in there love it; they don't change hands too often, and it's a very secluded lot. Dr. Parker said, I remember when we were going through there, this one struck me as one of the most appealing and, as Bill pointed out, obviously it has matured landscaping or trees, but I think when we look at the numbers also, I think that fact that it's the low density, the 3 or so.... I mean, I don't know what-maybe that, to me, between the trees and the grassy area and the low density-I thought it was a nice one-the nicest one that we saw there. Mr. Marquardt said I think not having all the garages face toward the street. Dr. Parker said that probably too, which is helped by the density. Mr. Marquardt said they had more variety in their structures. 15. Slide #15 was shown. As slide 14 was changed to 15, Mr. Samac said our next slide is also in Mayfield Heights-that Wallflower Development. I gave you a little sheet on it; it shows how that will be developed ultimately. If you are familiar with the site at all, these units are pretty much adjacent to where the post office is on Landerhaven Drive or Landerbrook Drive at Cedar Road-it's a little east of Brainard. When we took our tour, these were just starting to come out of the ground. 16. Slide #16 was shown. [Continuing with the Wallflower Development], Mr. Samac said this is a photograph of the front of one of the units-this front here sort of faces north; the rear of the buildings actually face Cedar Road. 17. Slide #17 was shown. [Continuing with the Wallflower Development], Mr. Samac said they are primarily brick; this is another photograph of them from a little further away and I picked up another group of units. Mr. Samac said this last photograph [of this development] is a photograph shot from Cedar Road showing the rear of these buildings. There's probably (I'm guessing) 40-maybe there might be even a little more than 40' from the rear of the buildings to the Cedar Road right-of--way. And I'm guessing from where it's going to be widened out, the fronts-as you can see on the plan, they are pretty much circular or oval-type developments where the units/fronts sort of face each other with one entrance exit access off of Landerbrook Drive.
