Planning Commission Regular Meeting <br />Minute No. 95-22 <br />November 9, 1995 <br />Page 7 of 11 <br />Chin: Will the courtyards be given names to identify them? Have you planned the street names <br />for the rest of the development? Asked about access to the greens by way of the shoreline trail, <br />park area near Phase 3 and if there was parking in the roundabout area? <br />John Hughes, Citation: Yes. Each court will have a name. Mailboxes will be out in front of <br />the homes. Mentioned that the theme of that area would be names of different birds. The names <br />of the other streets have been pre -selected by the City. <br />Kalvin Platt, SWA Group: Responded to Commissioner Chin regarding access and parking: <br />Surrounding neighborhoods will have access to the Activity Park from Lewelling Boulevard. <br />There is no parking in the roundabout area, but there is parking along Lewelling Boulevard. <br />Collier: How many parking spaces are available inside the project west of the circle into the <br />wetlands? <br />Kalvin Platt, SWA Group: 15 to 20 parking spaces are available. <br />Berger: Will there be any public parking in the development for those who may want to drive <br />into the facility to park in the courtyard bulbs to walk the shoreline trail? Asked about a tennis <br />court., When will Phase 3 be built? Are we still calling the Phases villages? <br />Kalvin Platt, SWA Group: There is parking all along the street. There are no gates. Responded <br />to Commissioner Berger that tennis is not as popular as it has been. The activity center was <br />conceived with children in mind. They are the focus. With tennis courts, bright lights are a <br />concern with surrounding neighbors and you are limited with the number of people on a court at <br />one time. <br />John Hughes, Citation: Phasing has no connection with the order of construction, which will be <br />built according to market demands at that time. Each neighborhood will be identified by its <br />community name. The focus is the names of the .phases. <br />Dlugosh: Addressed the outside parking issue: There are not at any given time more than two <br />or three cars parked on Wicks Boulevard or the extension of Lewelling up to that gate. I don't <br />think that parking is going to be a problem. Most of the traffic will be on -foot. <br />Reed: Commented that the large units will bring a propensity of youth. He agreed with <br />Commissioner Ravenstad's suggestion to have more athletic fields. He encouraged Citation to <br />consider a softball/soccer field. <br />Dlugosh: Commented that the ballfield issue should have been addressed at an earlier stage of <br />this development. We allowed this issue to slip by. Reminded the Commission that he voted <br />against the Marina Vista project because of the lack of playing fields. The basin area has more <br />of a utility need than making it into a ballfeld. Putting ballfields that close to residents will create <br />problems like the ones experienced by other residents in similar situations such as: lighting, noise, <br />late night hours and balls in yards. <br />
