(CENTURY TRACE) Mr. Phillipchuck, attorney for Moser Enterprises, Inc. spoke briefly on significant changes and clarifications on the annexation of Century Trace. Parkland donations were increased. The ordinance requires the dedication of 14.1 acres. The developer is dedicating nearly 22 acres. This acreage does not include ponds or detention being held by the homeowners association. The large lake, with the gazebo and fishing pier, is 18.3 acres in size, but we give only 50% credit for that open space. Additionally, the parkland will be improved by the developer at a cost of $300,000. The parkland and improvements are satisfactory to the Park District. Two residential lots adjoining the part are eliminated to provide off-street parking for visitors. Language in paragraph 10 of Exhibit C was changed and any reference to District 204 has been eliminated. Open space requirements are no longer satisfied by detention or flood plains. The large lake is limited to a 50% credit toward the ordinance requirement. The site plan no longer has any 8,400 sq. ft. lots. There are some neighborhoods that have some 9,000-sq. ft. lot minimums; but those neighborhoods average 10,230 sq. ft. The neighborhood with minimum 9,600-sq. ft. lots averages 11,386 sq. ft. The overall average for all the single- family lots is 10,720 sq. ft. The developer agreed to a minimum side yard set back of 10 feet for all lots. That means the spacing between houses shall be no less than 20 feet. No variances are being sought. PLAINFIELD VILLAGE BOARD OF TRUSTEES JANUARY 3, 2000 PAGE THREE Mayor Rock told Mr. Zwemke, the developer, that he was counting 9,000 sq. ft. right on the head, and that he feels anything under 10,000 sq. ft. is 9,000 sq. ft. to him. Trustee Cherry had questions with regard to the closure of Normantown Road. Mr. Phillipchuck told Trustee Cherry that Normantown Road will be closed to construction traffic. The core samples taken previously demonstrate that the road will last some 5 to 6 years. This road is likely to be turned into a "bikeway" or some such use in the futUre since it dead ends to the north and south. We have been coordinating this with Naperville. S.
