Present were the following members: Chairman Wilson, McDonald, Jabbour, Hammerel, Adams and Frahra. Mabusth represented staff and Hurr was present for the Council. ATTENDANCE 7:30 P.M. Mr. Hussman and Mr. Hansen (Schoell Madson) were present. The majority of discussion was regarding the developer supplying a park area within the development. The general consensus of the Commission was that a development of this density should provide such an area; perhaps a "tot lot" for the smaller children. The applicant stated that tests have indicated there may be a possibility of lessening the size of the pond which could make room for a park area. However, further discussion raised concerns regarding maintenance as this specific P.R.D. will not operate under a homeowner’s association. Staff is satisfied with the plans and feels that the applicant has complied ^ with all staff requests. Hammerel moved to recommend preliminary approval of the P.R.D. based on the following conditions: HUSSMAN INVESTMENT CO. 3660 Shoreline Drive SUBDIVISION (#447) 1. 2. 3.

JACK SAFAR 925 Partenwood Road VARIANCE (#485) -m-T# • MINUTES OF A PUNNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON JULY 9. 1979 PAGE 4 Road Mr. Safar presented a site plan. He stated that the house meets all setback requirements but that due to a surveyor’s error of 20' a variance would be required for the wall and canopy. An 18* variance is required for the farthest point of the wall because it is above the 42" height and a 2* variance for the canopy extending into the 35* front yard setback. The wall will be landscaped to soften the effect. Also present were Ma’ind and Gretchen Hurr, 930 Partenwood Road, who were v^pposed to any variance being granted as they contend that tl^ house violates the covenants of Partenwood. They presented pictures of the previous and existing grades. The Commission advised the Hurrs that the City cannot do anything regarding the Partenwood covenants. Mr. Safar stated that he would contact his architect to see if there is a more feasible way to achieve the canopy without the need for a variance or at least as great a variance as now requested. Jabbour moved to deny the wall and canopy as proposed but would be willing to reconsider the cenopy If resubmitted without the well. Motion seconded by Hammerel, Vote: Ayes (5), Nays (I) Wilson Wilson felt the Item should be tabled, he was uncomfortable handling the request piecemeal and felt the alternatives should be considered as a who^e.
