this amendment will make the entire parcel consistent in its zoning designation. The following persons spoke in opposition to the application: Mr. Ron Schneider, 650 Orofino Court, stated that the development of this property may be several years away but there are some conditions that he felt should be placed on approval of development and which any future developer should be made aware of and take into consideration. He advised that the Homeowners Association in general have not met regarding this matter, but it is the consensus of the Board that the following conditions be placed on development of this property: (1) that there be no more than three units per acre; (2) that the grading plan be adequate so as not to adversely impact sur- rounding neighbors; and (3) that Chardonnay not be a feeder street but be deaded ended into a cul-de-sac. Mr. James Griffin, 3036 Chardonnay Drive, stated he is concerned about density not be compatible with surrounding area, the grading plan, and the termination of Chardonnay. He stated he felt that 3 to 3-1/2 units per area is appropriate and that it should be condition of approval. Mr. Frank Belecky, 892 Madeira Drive, speaking on behalf of the Vintage Hills Homeowners Association, advised that he had spoken to residents on Char- donnay Drive and they do not want Chardonnay Drive opened to any projects in this area. Mr. Belecky advised that grading in the area near the Vintage Hills Park is terrible, with mounds of dirt piled up behind residences there. He stated this should not happen on future projects. He stated he supports not exceeding three units per acre for development of this property. Mr. Inderbitzen stated he did not disgree with the homeowners concerns but he felt it is premature to attach any conditions at this time. He stated he is not opposed to limiting development to three units per acre, and that he is willing to consider alternatives to minimize traffic on Chardonnay Drive.
