plan will require a site plan with each building permit issued.
Mr. Larson also stated that they added 10 feet to the building set
back.
Bill Petty stated that the plan posed a problem as far as
enforcement was concerned. He also stated that the enforcement
of this plan was outside our capabilities, and would require
a full time inspector during construction.
Mark Thornton, Director of Parks & Recreation, stated that
he could review the site plans at the time of submittal.
Brian stated that 45 trees will be protected on a typical
lot. Starting off with 100 acres, 80 acres of trees will be left
after the plan is fully developed. Approximately eight acres will
need to be cleared for the streets and utilities, and 108 of the
trees will be lost for the house itself.
Bill suggested to Mr. Larson to try and amend the plan,
making it easier to enforce, and bring it back to the Commission
for approval.

Public Hearing
Fountain Park No. 8 (Cont.)
Pat Atkins, of Don Tipton Engineering, presented the
proposal to the Commission. The plan consists of 5.7 acres
of local retail and 3.4 acres of R-5, which will be 11 lots.
Vice Chairman Glass opened the public hearing.
Lilly Jo, of Jo & Associates, spoke in opposition to
the proposal. She was concerned with the LR adding to the
existing local retail, making the entire local retail, in her
opinion, too large to be supported by this area.
With no one else wishing to speak before the Commission,
Vice Chairman Glass closed the public hearing.
Mr. Atkins stated that the depth of the local retail will
be 450 ft. This being 100 ft. deeper than the existing local
retail.
Commissioner Wilson suggested angling the local retail
district from Sycamore Creek to the requested boundary on the
east edge.
Bill Petty stated that this tract was originally 60
acres divided with the development of Fountain Park No. 6, with
the rules that it would provide access to 2170 and would be
dealt with in a future zoning case. This request is the second
of those cases. Fifty of the acres was rezoned to R-5.
Property to the south is zoned shopping center and the
request here is local retail. He stated that the nine acres
should be viewed as part of the entire 60 acres and not separately.
Vice Chairman Glass had a concern with the severe turn
in Fountain Gate Drive. Mr. Atkins advised the Commission that
the turn will be less severe in the next proposal, and requested
the Commission to allow him to table the proposal, and come
back with the changes mentioned.
MOTION: Upon a motion made by Commissioner Garcia and seconded
by Commissioner Hoover, the Commission voted 5-0 to
table Agenda Item No. VI. The motion carried.
