Mr. Balling summarized the planning the Village has done with the Giametta's and their neighbors in that area. The
goal is to try to create a unified development with a mid density range of 4-6 dwelling units per acre that
complements the planning in Prairie View,the Village's Comprehensive Plan and transit oriented objectives. Mr.
Balling read for the record page 13,paragraph 29 F of the annexation agreement. Mr.Balling asked if the owner
understood and agreed to the provisions of Paragraph 29.F,particularly the unified development objectives,and the
Village's intent to achieve residential development in the PUD-6(4 to 6 units per acre)range. Mr.Balling noted
that by implementing the two-year limit on the current non-residential uses,the agreement responds to the County
enforcement action by providing a plan for phasing out the current uses. Mr. Siemen indicated they were
comfortable with that wording,
Trustee Braiman requested Staff to look at all buildings on the three parcels to be sure proper variations are noted in
the agreement. He also asked the petitioner to verify that the property is zoned Residential Estate,meaning a
holding area for two years with the intention to re-zone it at that time. Mr. Sieman agreed.
