I Mr. Martin feels the public records show and it has been publicly stated to them that the zoning is P-2 so the zoning is not the issue the con- sideration of a preliminary plat on already zoned property is the issue. McKeon has revised their plan 5 times and has revised the density from 542 to 502 units about 25% less density than the Prestige Plàn. Mr. Martin feels they have tried, within their economical perimeter to meet the requests of the Planning Commission and the Village Attorney and Engineer. He also feels the park land dedication would be beneficial to Chanhassen. They want an answer one way or the other on this project.

The following voted in favor thereof: Mayor Klingelhutz, Councilmen Bennyhoff, Kurvers and Wolf. Councilman Neils voted no. Motion carried. The following are the reasons for the voting on the McKeon Construction project: Councilman Bennyhoff felt there were not enough detailed reports and the density was too high. Councilman Neils felt the developer has acted within our ordinance in presenting the preliminary plans and that the Village can work with the developer to make changes in the final plan. I Councilman Kurvers felt this plan does not follow the original concept of the Prestige Plan when it was originally zoned. He felt the density was too high. I I I CHANHASSEN VILLAGE COUNCIL MINUTES - August 27, 1973 -3- McKEON CONSTRUCTION, CON'T: Councilman Wolf feels the PUD Concept flexibility is a good one to work with. He stated that he does not feel comfortable with this proposal. The net density is too high in the apartment area. He felt the way it isrlayed out is a poor living environmental condition for those who would be living there. The pla~ has no imagination, it is a very boring plan. Mayor Klingelhutz feels the apartments are poorly located. He doesn't like cutting the hill 25 ft. and the 18% slope of the roads, with these drastic changes you loose all amenities of the land. He also felt the density was too high. STORM SEWER PROJECT 73-8: Bill Brezinsky, Village Engineer presented the plans and specifications for Minnewashta Heights Storm Sewer on Lot 9.
