Member Klataske stated his conflict of interest in regard to this
plan.
Ms. Whetstone, Project Planner, read the staff report including a
slide presentation.
Linda Ripley - Ripley Associates, representing Charlotte
Jorgensen and Bill Neal. She said there are storm water concerns
which need further study for location of an easement through the
site. The applicant is working with the City on this. She
explained the plans for the project with 4 d.u. per acre and that
the site was appropriate for single-family.
Bart Nelson - Vice President of the Pleasant Valley Lake Canal
Company an irrigation ditch that crosses this property, showed
the Board his concerns for drainage and the change of the
original right-of-way and easement across the property. He was
concerned about drainage problems in other developments of the
area. He stated that his ditch company would not be liable for
any damages caused by the development because the developer does
not notify the prospective buyer of potential problems. The
canal bridge at Prospect has a tremendous amount of runoff (he
understood that the Choices 195 will widen this) and needs to be
addressed.. He mentioned chemicals that could be washed to the
ditch and contaminate it as a concern. What are the subdivision
requirements above the canal with regard to storm drainage? He
read from a detailed report. He said the Federal Government's
Cold Water Act must be considered.
Ms. Ripley stated that the developer will be working with all
parties concerned with regard to this issue.
xember Fontana commended the plan especially the density and
recommended approval of the amended Pairbrooke - overall
Development plan, #65-828.
Member Strom seconded the motion.

(1) the disparity of the size of the lots along Crest Road
in relation to the county size on adjacent tracts. Some
landscape medians and private driveways would serve the
residents for landscape buffering along Crest Road. The
Brookwood Homeowner's Association endorses that idea.
(2) The Clarendon Hills Homeowners Association supports an
effort to bring about a park sooner than projected year 2000
for development. There have been meetings with citizens,
and the developer with Parks to create a park with funds
from the homeowners and developer. He described the detail
of the park with fields, courts, tot lots, etc. and a
detention facility which would eliminate some function in
the park. The Parks and Natural Resources Departments agree
this is not a feasible condition. The developer opposes this
condition.
CITIZEN INP_UT_,
Bruce Heath - 4920 Crest Road - President of the Brookwood
Homeowners Association - He referred to the PUD plan, he was
concerned with access streets. His concern was with the amount
of traffic to Crest Road and that the centerline be kept and
brought up to City standards. The design is very nice. He was
concerned with phasing of the development because of the
detention pond problems and flood line.
CITIZEN INPUT CLOSED,
Member Cottier asked if this was to be brought to City standards
or remain a County road?
Mr. Shepard said the compromise was that Crest Road would be a
28-foot street (not 36 feet), sidewalk on the west side only,
still determining the exact curb edge of the east side and remain
a County street with improvements.
Member Strom moved to approval of Coventry Subdivision, Filing
one, Final #80-93A With the preliminary agreement conditions.
Member Fontana seconded the motion.
Member Strom commented for the record that the intent of the
Board is for the road to align on the existing easement
centerline.
Member Fontane commented and applauded the effort to get the park
before the year 2000 and the cooperation of the developer and
neighborhoods working together. A very good example in the
community.

Mr. Phillips said that "landscaped" rather than "grass" be used
in the motion.
Member Cottier felt that the owners of surrounding property bear
the burden of not creating future problems.
Member Strom amended the notion to include the Solar Variance,
and that it be granted; that it was equal to or better than the
plan rather than the letter of the ordinance.
Members Fontane and Cottier indicated that was acceptable.
Notion carried 7-0.
Item 25. Coventry Subdivision, Filing One - Final 100-93A,
Mr. Ted Shepard read the staff report with conditions, there is
an anticipation for Filing 2 and staff recommends appLoval. The
staff report does not include the standard condition of the
timely filing of the utility plans and development agreements,
that condition if the recommendation is approved.
Chair Clements asked about the "centerline not be moved" issue of
Crest Road agreement as requested by the Brookwood Neighborhood
Association.
Mr. Shepard said the Planning staff is working with the County
Engineering Department.
Mr. Mike Herzig, Planning Engineer, gave a brief summary with the
developer trying to shift the centerline towards the east away
from their property for room for driveways. Mr. Rex Burns of the
County has been involved and stated it was okay to shift it.
However, the neighbors on Crest Road would like it to remain.
The most recent report is that it is shifted three feet off the
centerline right-of-way. The Board can direct the developer
through a condition. His professional opinion is that the street
should be designed center on the current right-of-way, concurring
with the Brookwood Homeowner's Association recommendation.
Mr. Dick Kellogg - J. R. Engineering - reviewed the issue of
Crest Road. Mr. Rex Burns was approached and stated that " the
east property line was fixed, so that in the future, if the road
was widened from 28 feet to the full width that the east full
lane would stay constant and it would not move in the future."
If the road is widened in the future for development, the west
side would move correspondingly. That was their reasoning.
Jim Sell of Colorado Land Source Limited, applicant, gave the
presentation. He pointed out some concerns:
