Sisk wondered if certain city officials in 1985 represented to him, in their capacities as city employees, <br />that this property would be zoned for 162 condominium or associated uses and who are they. <br /> <br />Hoyt: <br /> <br />Absolutely. The few people involved in the <br />negotiations of that process were primarily Terry <br />Hundley (deceased), the City Manager, Rich Wanush, <br />the Planning Director, and Curt Rautenstraus. <br /> <br />Sisk: <br /> <br />And that the City of Louisville represented to McStain <br />that McStain had the right, without going through a <br />Special Review, to build 162 units on this property? <br /> <br />Hoyt stated that "Special Review" did not even come up. He commented that the assumption was <br />that they had established density and placement of that density by the process they went through. <br /> <br />Sisk wondered if they had contacted Rautenstraus to verify this. <br /> <br />Hoyt felt he had been contacted by them and the city. <br /> <br />Susan Griffiths, City Attorney, stated that she had only a brief informal discussionwith Mr. <br />Rautenstraus on this. <br /> <br />Kottke stated that he had communicated with Rautenstraus and he asked him, specifically, if <br />necessary, would he be willing to testify. Rautenstraus did not feel he could do that because of the <br />attorney/client privilege, but the indication that he got was that what McStain was proposing here was <br />exactly consistent with what his understanding of the process was. <br /> <br />Levihn asked John Leary if he saw this as a master plan, similar to what the city has with Homart. <br /> <br />John Leary, 1116 LaFarge, Louisville, Colorado, answered to the affirmative. He commented that <br />he believed that this was an agreement. Looking back, he believed that this was what was approved, <br />that this was what was understood was going to happen. <br /> <br />Levihn had spoken with the Planning Director for the Boulder Valley School District, who felt that <br />the townhomes would produce less children than what the density of single family homes would <br />produce. <br /> <br />Hoyt agreed. He estimated that this project would be approximately 40% complete by the end of'95. <br /> <br />Howard informed Council and the audience that had received a FAX from Kip Oram of Alpine <br />Lumber, who was in favor of this development because they felt the city needed more multi-family <br />housing and that the city should live up to its agreements. Howard wondered what the proposed unit <br />prices were for the townhomes. <br /> <br />12 <br /> <br /> <br />
