Mr. Swift noted that the project has not been referred to the Park and Recreation Commission yet, because the project has the components of the trails and private park, and in-lieu park fees would be paid. He advised that it is staffs intent to send a memo the Park and Recreation Commission recommending that they do not need to review the project because it no longer has a public park and does have the other components. Chairperson Maas stated that she feels since the large park is not included the Park and Recreation Commission would want to see the project. In response to an inquiry from Chairperson Maas, Mr. Swift advised that the Planning Commission had required the whole house fan as an option for the GreenbriarIHeinz project, so staff included it in the conditions for the project. He further advised that he does not know whether Ponderosa is opposed to offering the whole house fan, but they did question the electric vehicle hook -up as a standard. Chairperson Maas requested that staff review the condition for the whole house fan to determine if it is a requirement or to be offered as an option. It was noted that the wording of the proposed condition requires the whole house fan to be a standard feature on all homes for this project. Chairperson Maas asked for clarification regarding the extension of the side fences to the new rear fence that will be constructed by Ponderosa Homes and what would be done to mesh the connecting fences to the rear fence. Mr. Swift suggested that Ponderosa representatives respond to this inquiry.
