Sisk asked that Maurer get something in writing from Boulder <br />County. <br /> <br />Davidson was concerned about overcrowding in the schools and he did <br />not like shared driveways. He felt there should only be one house <br />per acre. <br /> <br />Howard moved that Council forward this Letter of Interest to annex <br />to the Planning Commission with Council's comments. Seconded by <br />Lathrop. All in favor except Davidson, with Keany being absent. <br /> <br />DISCUSSION/DIRECTION - LETTER OF INTEREST TO ANNEX - 4.97 ACRES AT <br />327 SOUTH 80TH STREET <br /> <br />Paul Wood, Planning Director, stated that Scott Lynn, applicant, <br />was requesting to annex 4.97 acres located west of McCaslin <br />Boulevard, just north and adjacent to the Anderson parcel, which <br />was annexed in 1987. Use would be for one private residence with <br />the ability to graze horses through Special Review Use, if <br />possible. The parcel fronts McCaslin Boulevard. <br /> <br />Davidson called for the applicant's presentation. <br /> <br />Bob West, OZ Architecture, 2336 Pearl Street, Boulder, Colorado <br />80302, stated that if the property were zoned RR, it allows private <br />horse facilities without the Special Review Use. He explained that <br />the Anderson annexation was RRR, which is also a possibility. <br /> <br />Mayer stated that horses are no longer allowed on RR. <br /> <br />West stated that the residence will be approximately 5,000 s.f. in <br />a ranch style with a walkout that will sit on the ridge. The <br />applicant wanted City water offering to enter into a Development <br />Agreement with the City to bring water across McCaslin. <br /> <br />Mayer felt there would be a lot of maintenance cost to the City and <br />the only benefit would be in taxes. <br /> <br />Howard felt the City would have more control over the property if <br />it were annexed, such as underground power lines, retain a rural <br />appearance, and solidify the City's borders. <br /> <br />Levihn did not want to see more density. He agreed with Howard <br />about protecting the City's borders and maintaining some control <br />over the property. <br /> <br />Davidson stated that, if there is a way for the City to abandon So. <br />80th Street, so it is a private street, he would be in favor of the <br />annexation. Otherwise, he would rather the City provide water to <br />the property and not annex it. <br /> <br />Mayer asked what the land dedication would be. <br /> <br />14 <br /> <br /> <br />
