? Tabled with Technology Park I above. IV. NEW DEVELOPMENTS AND SUBDIVISIONS: l. Cinnamon Lake Subdivision, Preliminarv Plat• The proposal is to subdivide permanent parcel No. 264-07-025 (recently annexed), located south of Cook Road and east of Bronson Road, into forty-four (44) B-Residential sublots and two (Z) Remnant blocks. Note: 1) that Re-Zoning (item No.2, this agenda) is required. 2) This proposal was tabled at the Planning Commission meeting dated October 24, 2000 Chairman Tallon. called all interested parties forward to review their proposal. Mr. Tallon indicated that the board would address issue 1& 2 at the same time. Mr. Zwick, the engineer representing Hennie Homes came forward to review the proposal. He reviewed that the Planning Commission tabled the plan at the last meeting. He indicated that the requests have been submitted by the safety and forest departments as well as the law departments. The proposal is in North Olmsted and located on the south side of Cook road there is not a structure currently on the land. The entrance will be directly south of the cinnamon woods south homes. The land has yet to be zoned for the City of North Olmsted. They would like to request that the zoning be zoned B- Single family use. The name of the proposal is Cinnamon Lake subdivision. Block A is a heavily wooded site and would remain wooded with an above ground retention system or lake/park type appearance. The lots will be 75 feet wide, which meets the B residents zoning requirements. They have worked the drainage issue to make sure as few as possible trees will have to be removed. 1V1r. Tallon questioned if block-B was build-able. Mr. Zwick indicated that the parcel was not developable, as there was wetlands on the property and it could best be used as a buffer from the property to the south. Mr. Hreha questioned why the applicant was requesting to have Block B zoned B single family residential if it will not be developed. Mr. Zwick commented that they where requesting that the entire site be rezoned B single family residential. The City could zone Block B something-other then B-single family residential so that it is not developed. Mr. Tallon questioned what the land was zoned in Olmsted Township. Mr. Zwick suggested that Block B was zoned light industrial in Olmsted Township. Currently the land behind the proposed development is commercial. Mr. Asseff suggest that block B should Ue zoned to protect the land and remain as green space so it is not sold down the road and then it would be developed into light industrial right behind homes. Mr. Spalding questioned what the findings where of the Law Department. Mr. Tallon indicated that the law department believed that the cul-de-sac was not in accordance to our code. Furthermore as the City annexed the land to North Olmsted is should be zoned. Mr. Tallori questioned if City Council had a zoning in mind when the land was annexed to North Olmsted. Mr. Dubelko reviewed what took place to have the property annexed to North Olmsted and indicated that the City needed to zone the land. Mr. Tallon believed that the City had a responsibility to make sure that the land is developed properly. Mr. Dubelko suggested 1W. Tallon was correct and it was a Planning function to try to plan what the future may hold in this area. Mr. Tallon reviewed that the Fire Department had a problem with only one water line into the proposed development. The little proposed side street is not even a street and currently the proposal calls for only one way in and out. Nli-. Tallon suggested developing a 500-foot cul-de-sac and leaving an opening in the back of the cul-de-sac and when enough land has been purchased to develop the rest of it at a later date. Mr. Zwick questioned if there would be a difference if the street was not a public street but private street. Mr. Tallon indicated that that would create a different problem. Mr. Spalding questioned if there was light industry to the east and west. Mr. Zwick indicated that the land to the east and the west was 5
