what we're proposing is a 49 unit apartment and 15 Town Homes... currently planning for those to be rental... but they're all individual PS they're all set up to be for sale if they want to be so it's always best long term to give a project the most flexibility than having it be locked into something

I think Lakeville has been so used to being a green FEI field developer me that everything is okay we got 50 acres let's go in here let's we got zoning let's get it done now we're getting residual pieces that are kind of left over from other things and now we're kind of saying okay maybe that exact zoning doesn't quite fit even though we're very close and that's where when we started to work through it with staff they're like when don't we look at doing a PUD

the plan unit developments... are established to perent to uh uh to allow uh creative development uh designed as long as the land use complies with a comprehensive plan which which this does... allows mix uses which this is proposing uh provides variations from strict applications uh to improve site design

if you historically look at any of the affordable projects we've done we I laugh at the only thing different on our affordable than our market rate is one gets a granite top and one gets a foric top in the kitchen they they have the same high quality finishes the exterior building honestly at uh Lakefield point is probably um almost of a higher quality than the one I just finished at minat tanka that was a market rate

this site in my view as I look at it does suffer from a lot of different things and not all of the developers doing by any stretch of the imagination... so the site is just really tight with a lot of different roadway pinching it in a lot of different directions so I understand the need for flexibility here with setbacks and some of the other things

I had said I had some major concerns about the number of uh deviations not variances... and uh I'm just concerned its precedent setting for the next attempt um for a PUD so I I understand and appreciate the input from Mr Waldo um about how it's a difficult site and you're trying to make it work I I uh I don't want to make anybody go back to the drawing board and redo it but maybe it has to be less uh units or something in order to make me more comfortable with it
