to PRD -3 Planned Residential District.
Mr. Luce noted the location of the property, aA3 eitplained the southeast:
corner (505 acres) is excepted at this time. He referenced a booklet submitted to tha
Planning; Commission by the developer and explained the concept (three story
condominium buildings at just under 12 units per acre) canforits to the topography
and the Southwest Edina Plan. He indicated the project amtrmic€►. road, Telaney Blvd,-,,
and the Delaney right--of-way must be adjusted significantly ir. order; to provide a
greater amount of green area and to eliminate the poiss:ib a T-interseettyn. and exis tiT.�g
"strai.ght shot" down Dewey Hill. Road,, He nested ,also that the setback aatw,Aen llelv.ue
Boul.e,rard and the closest parking lot must be increased,
Mr. Dean questioned the density aa it relates to traffie, Lhe lnt�!riot raad
pattern, the percentage of land coverage„ the landsscaping , the rental rUld sales reag ea,
and the projected timetable. lie suggested if the northern extension of Devey Hill
Rona (Amundson Avenue) was cul-de-saced rather than Cahil.l. Road, traffic t'liroul3h this
area would be significantly reduced,
Mr. Jim Smuda, vice president of Condor Corporation, stated the wite is 23
acres,, 15% of which will be covered by buildings; coverage of parkiiie, and drives will
be minimal because of the large amount of underground parking,, Almost 12% of the total
site will be ponding area. The few existing trees will be preserved, howavera, a full
lan 'scape schedule will be submitted to the Village as p*.,rt: ci the final pians..; Mr,.
Smudar: noted that although the entire project will be built spy it canbe resident c-"rned",
part of the project will be initially rented and part will be sold; the on:.� bedroam
units should sell for under $30,000; the two bedroom units, under $37;,000, and the
three-bedroom units, under $45,000, The rentals will vary,
