THE GROVE AT HARPER LAKE, FINAL SUBDIVISION AND PUD, PUBLIC HEARING Chairman Ferrero opened the public hearing. Notice of public hear&tg was published in the Louisville Tines on April 22, 1987. APPLICANT'S PRESENTATION: Tom Hoyt, representing McStsin Enterprises. Hoyt stated that last tine at the preliminary the overall plans were reviewed for the Grove. One of the things that ve have proposed are the setback variances for the front yards. We are really trying with these setbacks to accomplish two things a variable building envelope so we can get houses that will have a lot of different foot prints and to create as interesting $ street scope as we can. What we are asking in terms of the setbacks is a standard 20' fros the property line. .Because this is a part of an overall Master Plan where our plan has given 35X of open space, school sites, recreation sites, we ask for some specific variances to the underlying soning in each area. What we are trying to create is a sore variable foot print for these houses. We are not trying to get something from the City on this. I asked at the preliminary meeting what the Commission thought about the 28' street instead of the 32' streets. After hearing your comments on the subject we have decided that it will be most likely that parking viii. occur on both sides of the streets, and because of the parkins ani the access for fire emergency vehicles we have decided to stay with the 32' streets. You asked how we would maintain landscaped on open space. There is a highly developed sprinkler systems end scrubs and trees that are going to be put in. The maintenance will be in the homeowners association agreement. The open space landscaping will benefit the homeowners that are there. The homeowners association we will set up and vs have been doing this for sometime. The homeowners association covenants will be recorded and sakes everyone that buys in this subdivision subject to these covenants. They will pay monthly into a maintenance fund. The homeowners do have legal rights to make sure that maintenance does happen. We set up the homeowners association in the Westfield development in Louisville and it has been operating for two years now.
