Mr. Fraker continued to re-review the PUD. Michael Frontczak, 643 Fairfield Lane, Louisville, CO, felt the City would be better off waiting until the Comprehensive Plan was completed before annexing this land. He also was concerned about the additional children in the schools, the safety issues concerning the bike path, which backs up to existing full privacy fences on the Coal Creek side, etc.. He felt it should be moved. 4
