Louisville City Council Meeting November 8, 2000 Page 10. 2001. Light suggested that if the matter is referred back to the Planning Commission, Council continue the annexation and zoning approval. Mayer stated that he would like to see the Preliminary PUD prior to approval of the annexation and zoning. Mayer stated that he would prefer SFE zoning. He also suggested that Council review current policies and zonings, and establish an annexation policy. Howard suggested that the applicant invite the opponents to neighborhood meetings. He stated that he is in favor of the City purchasing some of the land for open space and suggested the applicant continue discussions with Staff. He stated that he is willing to look at a proposal that fits the neighborhood, will not cause traffic problems, has workable densities, and provides a reasonable open space acquisition for the City. Sisk asked if Mr. Banta wished to speak to the issue. Mr. Banta stated that he was concerned about the development of a large park, but is in favor of a neighborhood park. Brown asked for clarification on the property purchased for open space and will be used for the 96th and Highway 42 Connection. He asked if that was a purchase made for a need that would arise in the future. Phare stated that the purchase was made in anticipation of future needs and not designated as open space. He also noted that the purchase was made before the Open Space Fund was established. Keany encouraged the applicant to invite all neighborhoods within 500' of the property when considering neighborhood meetings. He suggested that notices of such meetings could be put on the City's Web site. Davidson stated that the preliminary Sketch Plan or Preliminary PUD is not a binding agreement and that an annexation agreement has not been presented.
