These proposed projects are all to take place within <br />an area adjacent to County Road 19, at the west side of the golf <br />course. The ponds would enhance not only the aesthetic quality <br />of the course, but also the challenge of the game itself. They <br />should also aid in eliminating on-going maintenance problems in <br />wet areas. The tee box is being relocated because of complaints <br />from neighboring properties. The new location will place the tee <br />box approximately 100' further away from the neighboring <br />property. There will be some fill removed and th& spoils will be <br />deposited in a location where there will be no adverse effect on <br />drainage. The City Engineer and the Minnehaha Creek Watershed <br />District has reviewed and approved the proposal. <br />There were no comments from the public regarding this matter <br />and the public hearing was closed. <br />Mr. Wenkstern explained that he was hoping to eliminate some <br />water problems by installing the ponds and relocating the tee box <br />should redirect the golf balls away from the road and passing <br />cars. <br />It was moved by Chairman Kelley, seconded by Planning <br />Commission member Cohen, to recommend approval of application <br />#1325 for a conditional use permit for excavating pond areas and <br />a tee box. Planning Commission member Bellows inquired as to <br />whether it would be beneficial to relocate the green to avoid <br />road traffic. Planning Commission member Cohen interjected that <br />the present location of the green should not be a problem once <br />the tee box is relocated. Kelley added that it would be very <br />costly to relocate a green.
