access: Perry Lane as a stub for possible future access to <br />Foothill when Forest Hill goes through; design the Bridgman Hunton <br />so that it is acceptable on its own; and if the City feels the <br />hammer head is acceptable on a long term basis the neighbors would <br />like a commitment from Council that when Mr. Schaefer's property <br />is developed and Forest Hill is connected it will be only for E. <br />R. vehicle and pedestrial/bike traffic. They neighbors do not <br />feel that access to Foothill Road is necessary. <br /> <br /> The following persons spoke in opposition to the <br />development: <br /> <br /> Mr. Tim LeRew, 4968 Hillcrest, representing himself and three <br />other neighbors on Hillcrest, stated they are not satisfied with <br />the setback on lot 29 and feel that it should be 40 feet instead <br />of 24 feet. He presented pictures showing the line of sight on <br />the height of the houses as proposed and how it will adversely <br />affect his view and skyline. He also felt that lot 23 should have <br />a 40 foot setback, even if it means losing one lot. He stated <br />that on the whole the revised plan is a better development but the <br />problem affecting the four homes on Hillcrest Way needs to be <br />addressed before approving the application. <br /> <br /> Mr. Trevor Lagette, 4946 Hillcrest, presented pictures <br />showing his unique situation in that his lot is significantly <br />lower and will be severely impacted by lot 29 of the proposed <br />development. He stated he concurs with the statements made by Mr. <br />LeRew. He stated he would like a 40 foot setback with a lower <br />roof line on lot 29. <br /> <br /> Mr. Fred Hempy, 5000 Foothill Road, stated he is concerned <br />about access to Foothill Road and would recommend that the lots be <br />adjusted to assure that this will never happen. <br /> <br /> Mr. Russ Schaefer, 5059 Foothill Road, stated he is concerned <br />about access to Foothill Road along his property line, and asked <br />that Council do away with any future potential of access to <br />Foothill Road. <br /> <br /> Mr. Jim Pinto, 5004 Hillcrest, stated there needs to be lower <br />density on the homes. He felt that developers should get the <br />message and only build lower density projects. <br /> <br /> Mr. Bridgman stated he felt the plan has been adequately <br />revised to meet the concerns of the surrounding property owners <br />and still be a good project. He stated the situation on Palmdale <br />Court required the elevation to be specifically addressed and he <br />has reduced the lots to a minimum level, modified the roof pitch <br />to be 18 feet high at the peak, and increased the side yard <br />setback to 24 feet. He stated that two lots have already been <br />removed. He stated that it is impossible to satisfy everyone <br />and he feels he has gone far beyond requirements to do everything <br />that he has done to make the project acceptable to the neighbors. <br /> <br /> - 13 - 4/04/8 SS <br /> <br /> <br />
