Mr. Jon Proulx stated that the applicant is seeking input from the Board regarding the revised
development plans for the project known as Ballard Farm, located at the northeast corner of 127th Street

Representatives from Ballard Farm gave a presentation highlighting the revised concept plan for the

Trustee Bonuchi expressed concern with the elevations. Trustee Wojowski stated that he liked the
designs and concept but expressed concern regarding the proposed variances and setbacks. Trustee
Larson expressed concern regarding the variances and setbacks and had some questions regarding the
green aspects of the development. Trustee Benton expressed concern regarding variances and setbacks.
Mayor Collins expressed concern regarding the variances and setbacks. Trustee Kalkanis expressed
concern regarding the setbacks.
The applicant asked if there would be any objections to allowing only the front porch of a home to
encroach 5 feet into the front yard setback. There were no objections. The applicant will continue
