34. The stores at the corner of Stuart and Shields, Spring
Creek, are not desirable looking. However, Spring Creek
Medical Center area is nicely done.
35. Will the developer be able to donate some property for bus
pull-outs? Can the City flex its standards to increase the
length of the pullout, so stalled cars have a place to get
out of the way.
36. Scotch Pines is 15 - 20 acres and no comparison in scale,
but good comparison for residential character.
37.. Could you house the bank and all under one roof?
A. We thought breaking up the mass with three buildings
would be more appropriate than one large building.
38. If the Ponds at overland Trail is developed, this will
impact traffic in this area at Shields and Prospect even
more. All those folks will use Prospect Road, too, and the
congestion will be even worse.
39. Can a bridge be constructed, jumping the drainage area, for
cars and pedestrians?
A. A vehicular bridge over the drainage area to the south
would be very expensive. A bridge for pedestrians,
however, possibly can be considered.
40. Are people going to want to go in either direction crossing
Shields and having cross traffic from the Albrecht parcel to
the Mullaney parcel?
A. The traffic study will look at this by analyzing the
operations of the proposed access on Shields.
41. The existing traffic control box at the southwest corner of
Prospect hinders the vision of pedestrians and adds visual
clutter.
42. The City Police need to cruise Shields Street area more for
speeding cars.
5
24. We are very concerned about the height of this whole
project.
25. Can some computer graphics be done to illustrate the
proposed structures for us? Since there will be some fill,
it would be interesting to see what a two-story structure
looks like on the property.
26. I am concerned about the lighting, sidewalks and bike
accesses in this area. These three things are important for
neighborhood compatibility.
A. We agree and will address these issues.
27. could there be an exit at Heatheridge, or an access to the
west if possible and could you connect the bike paths
together?
A. Good comment! A bike connection to the west will be
explored, but vehicular access to Heatheridge is not
possible.
28. The real problem to this project will be the exits and
accesses.
A. A traffic study will help us analyze the operations of
the proposed access points. Safety is an important
issue here including safety of pedestrians and people
on bike paths.
29. I would like a well lit, easy access and pleasant looking
project to be built.
30. I have had to wait through several light changes at the
corner of Prospect and Shields streets. The left turn cycle
for westbound Prospect needs to be longer.
31. The roadway striping at the intersection seem inconsistent
with what cars need to do. The striping is awkward for
drivers making the double -left turn.
32. A bus pull-out is warranted off of Shields south of
Prospect. Presently, the bus stops in the travel lane.
This causes congestion and a pull-out is needed.
33. I live on the north side of Prospect, Road. Presently, it is
difficult to turn into my property due to the left -turn
stacking lane for eastbound Prospect and there is two-way
traffic in front of.my house.

built on this project. Another neighborhood meeting is
A good idea.
14. Will your traffic study take into consideration other nearby
projects?
A. Yes, it will.
15. The plan proposes a curb cut on Shields for right-in/right-
out and left -in turns. I am concerned about.northbound
Shields left -in. Will it conflict with left turn stacking
lanes for northbound Shields to westbound Prospect?
A. This will be considered in the traffic study.
16. I'm concerned about the proposed left -in curb cuts and
children and pedestrians walking along Shields having to
cross another crosswalk type of situation.
17. The height of the bank building (two-story) does concern me.
18. Cars in the parking lot areas will be placed at a low level
in order to screen them somewhat from view.
19. Can we, as neighbors, get together and change the proposed
use for this project?
A. We would like to develop an office/retail area which
will serve the neighborhood. We are not trying to find
uses that will attract customers from across town.
20. If the traffic impact is not solvable, what will happen?
A. The traffic impact must be mitigated or the project
will be denied. (For example, the Albertson's proposal
died due, partially, to access & traffic issues.)
21. Can the building structures be limited to single -story in
size?
A. Keep in mind that many residences are two-story and
there are many attractive two-story commercial
buildings.
22. A two-story structure would really limit the view from my
house.
23. Can a brick, one-story strip center be constructed there,
similar to the Toddy's area?
A. We would like to use brick, also.
3
6. I'm very concerned about any 24 hour operation in this
development. Is the P.U.D. written so 24 hour services
cannot go in there?
A. Payless Drugstore is considering the hours of operation
to be 7:00 AM to 6:00 Pm. The developer is also
concerned about the hours of operation.
7. Who owns the wetlands?
A. The City's Stormwater Utility does.
8. What are you going to do with the piping, i.e. the storm
sewer on Prospect?
A. We're going to leave it. It was installed under the
ground with last year's Prospect project.
9. I'm concerned about the quality of tenants/clients you allow
in there.
A. Good comment! We are going to limit retail. For
example, we are not allowing fast food/drive-thru
restaurants.
10. Will this proposed project add an extra burden on the
drainage channel and its capacity?
A. No, the channel was designed with the assumption that
this property would be developed.
11. How much more fill is going to be placed on this site?
A. This area has to be filled to 5,016 feet (mean sea
level). The low point for stormwater discharge is at
elevation 5,016. The low point for the site is at the
extreme northeast corner of the site which is at 5,013.
Therefore, a minimum of 3 feet is required for positive
drainage.
12. Is this whole area crisscrossed with utility lines?
A. No, it is not.
13. I definitely think another neighborhood meeting is
warranted. The aesthetics of the rear of these proposed
buildings and their trash enclosures are also important to
US.
A. Yes, it is. We would like to get further input from
you on the type of structures you would like to see

NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING MINUTES
PROJECT: The Mullaney Property - SWC Prospect/Shields
DATE: March 9, 1995
APPLICANT: Mullaney Family
CONSULTANT: Linda Ripley, Ripley and Associates
PLANNER: Ted Shepard
The applicants, The Mullaney Family, are proposing a Planned Unit
Development (P.U.D.) for a mix of retail and office uses on 6.7
acres. As proposed, the anchor tenant would be a 15,000 square
foot.drugstore. Other proposed uses are a two-story medical
office, a two-story bank, and multi -tenant retail building.
QUESTIONS, CONCERNS, COMMENTS
1. Traffic is the number one problem. I'd like to see a low
impact development go in here.
2. The geese are now driven down by the drainage area..
3. Is there an impact to the wetlands due to sediment from
street sanding? Are there impacts from oil and gas residue?
A. The City's Stormwater Utility goes into the drainage
channels and wetland areas every five years and cleans
out the sediment. To the best of our knowledge,.
impacts from oil & gas residue are negligible.
4. How many parking spaces are planned for this project?
A. 180 - 200 parking spaces are planned.
5. I live on the north side of Prospect and cannot turn left to
go east at 8:00 AM. It's too difficult.
