Plan Commission Minutes 11-19-24
the maintenance of the inlets and outlets of the pond and any maintenance that would adversely affect the flow of storm
water. So, this is the agreement that is in place for the Ambleside pond. I am comfortable that, you know, that the
combined pond would have a similar agreement where Ambleside would maintain their edge of the pond and Town 146
PUD would maintain their side of the pond and the county would handle any conflicts between the two. When I talked
with them (the county), they said we have some ponds that are shared. Usually if there is an issue, they come to the city
and say they are not maintaining their part, and then we can go out and enforce that.
Grechukhin: I think this is a very common scenario. The way that the city deals with the county Drainage Board, number
one, is through team. It happens all the time. The shared ponds, I cannot give you statistics how many of them are there,
but they certainly exist. You know, our Engineering Department interacts with them routinely. We have a person in the
Engineering Department that does drainage work and interacts with the Drainage Board, again, all the time. I just
interacted with the drainage board last week. So it happens, the agreements between the city, between the private
developers, and Drainage Boards are often quite routine. That was an example of that.
Minnaar closed with a final question about the responsibility of maintenance and Dobosiewicz referenced a section of text
that would be included on the final recorded plat. He also stressed that the project would have to return to Plan
Commission for development review and that this issue could be further refined at that time.
Motion by Hill, seconded by Westermeier, to provide a favorable recommendation for the petition (as amended) to
the City Council.
APPROVED 6-1 (Nay: Campagna)
2. Docket No. PZ-2024-00140 OA: Gramercy PUD Ordinance Amendment.
The applicant seeks approval to modify the existing PUD language to allow an urban residential development
consisting of townhomes, multi-family, and neighborhood-oriented, mixed-use buildings. The 33-acre site is generally
located at the southeast corner of City Center Drive and Kinzer Ave. (830 Golfview Drive) and is currently zoned
PUD (Z-493-06 Gramercy). Filed by Jim Shinaver and Jon Dobosiewicz of Nelson & Frankenberger on behalf of
Buckingham Properties, LLC
Petitioner: Jon Dobosiewicz:
• The petition was provided a favorable recommendation at the October committee meeting to be forwarded back to
the full Plan Commission on the condition of finalizing a few remaining review items before the full Plan
Commission met. Such updates include as follows:
o An amended townhouse character image exhibit was added into the text of the PUD.
o Setback language for along City Center Drive changed from 5 feet to 10 feet minimum.
Department Report: Rachel Keesling:
• Original setback language for City Center Drive was reduced from 15 feet to 0 feet and after discussion a
compromise was reached to ultimately set it at 10 feet.
• Proper language with assistance from the legal team was added regarding references to previously deleted
sections of the PUD ordinance.
• More satisfied with newly provided character imagery of the townhomes but remained hesitant of some images
and stressed that finalized design would still need to be reviewed and approved by staff and the Plan Commission.
Motion by Kirsh, seconded by Campagna, to provide a favorable recommendation for the petition to the City
Council.
APPROVED 7-0
Meeting adjourned at 7:00 PM.
