DISCUSSION ON CHANGES TO U.S. HOMES, (SILVER GLEN) SITE PLAN
City Planner Wagner said the developer had made substantial
changes to the site plan after coming before the Commission
on Tuesday, October 6, 1981. At that time City Planner
Wagner still had seven maJor concerns regarding the proposed
development including the need for adequate storm water
retention facilities, the need for finding appropriate water
mains, and the need for necessary and available sewer
capability.
e
Jim Mehta of U.S. Homes said the developer needed Commission
comments before the final engineering design could be
completed. Mr. Mehta said by incorporating concerns of the
Commission at the last meeting, the company had decreased the
amount of lots. He said the retention system could now
handle two, 100-year storms within 48 hours, without flooding
any residences. City Engineer Kelley said he had received
the new plans two days ago, and they moved in the direction
of the original conceptual plan the City had previously
approved. Mr. Kelley said they had incorporated some of the
suggestions the City made. Commissioner Johnson asked how
many lots there were now. Jim Mehta said they lost seven
lots in the redesign of the retention pond system and the
total was now 249.
Mayor Ison asked City Engineer Kelley how much time he needed
to review the new plans. Mr. Kelley said it would be at
least a week or two. John Sundheim, Division Vice President
for U.S. Homes, said he was not asking the Commission for
final approval but a conceptual approval indicating that the
plans were moving in the right direction. Mayor Ison asked
Mr. Sundheim how he felt about entering into a bond
agreement. Mr. Sundheim said he did not like the idea. Mr.
Sundheim requested an individual meeting with the Mayor and
Commissioners to get some direction and to discuss several
points that were presented earlier as concerns, but not
discussed tonight. Mayor Ison said Mr. Sundheim could
arrange meetings with the individual Commission members and
