Hildy Kingma gave the staff report and recommendation. Mike Fitzgerald, a resident of 4-T Ranch Subdivision, asked about the authority to connect to a private road, and have egress and ingress on that road. Ed Barry responded that it was possible 4-T Ranch Road was a dedicated road but the County had not accepted it as maintenance yet. Hildy Kingma said that this project doesn’t impact 4-T Ranch Road. Philip Boedeker stated that Sun City contractors already use the road for their development. Charlene Perreault voiced her concern regarding the statement: “inclusion of the 4-T Ranch tract”, and asked what it meant. Hildy Kingma responded that the acreage in the additional lands concept plan was included in the original 4 -T Ranch tract, but it is undeveloped and is not platted.

Charlene Perreault, a 4-T Ranch resident, addressed the Commission regarding future through traffic on 4-T Ranch Road, 4-T Ranch tract terminology in the staff report, and the notification process and the fact that some 4-T Ranch residents were not notified. Hildy Kingma responded and explained that only properties within 200 feet of the project are notified. David Crain, Lot 16, 4-T Ranch, property owner, addressed the Commission regarding double frontage lots at the end of hi s street, and urged the Commission not to approve a variance for this because the houses would then face “backwards” across from his home. He had pictures that showed that 4-T Ranch Road terminates into a cul-de-sac, and is not a through street. Chris Herndon asked why the water line is going to be moved. Wendy Walsh responded that it would be relocated in a 25 foot easement along the north property line of Woodland Park. Jason Marshall addressed the Commission regarding the water main relocation, access to the line and connectivity. Bob Wifirzownecky voiced his concerns about increased traffic, and the environmental and wildlife impact the project would have with 200 septic tanks. Steve Sorenson, Corridor Engineering and agent for the applicant responded to the speakers. He stated that the density of the project is 1.3 acres per lot and this meets the standard for septic tanks, the water line is conceptual and Chisholm Trail Sud has asked for a 20 foot easement along FM2338 and the boundary of property. He stated that the double frontage lots do exist but the problem was not created by the developer of Woodland Park. Patrick Walsh asked about possibly doing park land on the double frontage lots. Charles Parker asked about the importance of connectiv ity. Ed Barry responded that this is by direction from Council, and affects emergency response time, and gives a sense of community to the connected subdivisions. David Crain stated that he rejected Mr. Sorenson’s response to his concern regarding double frontage lots. Charlene Perreault re-addressed the Commission about connectivity and Mike Fitzgerald asked if 4-T Ranch Road proves to be a private road, whose land would be taken. Ed responded that this would have to be researched further. Patrick Walsh stated that the project meets the regulations for a concept plan, and that the double frontage lots can be discussed at the platting stage of the development process. After the extensive discussion, Cal Wilkerson made a motion to approve the Concept Plan of Woodland Park, provided the Technical Issues are addressed prior to City Council consideration. Patrick Walsh seconded the motion which passed by a vote of 5-0. 10. Commissioners' comments and reports. 11. Staff comments and reports. P&Z Minutes May 4, 1999 Page 3 a.
