PC Meeting Minutes
PUBLIC HEARING & DISCUSSION / ACTION ON KILKENNY FARMS PRELIMINARY /
FINAL PLAT & GDP / SIP REZONE
The public hearing was held open at the July 10 meeting.
The Plan Commission discussed the concept plan for the Kilkenny Farms and had general consensus to
direct staff to work with the developer to finalize the plat for consideration at a special plan commission set
for August 13, 2012 at 5pm. The Commission had general consensus on the following issues:
1. The Commission concluded the plan is consistent with the Master Plan and the proposed 395+-
single family unit count was adjusted up because 44 multifamily units were converted to single
family units and that further detailed wetland delineation allowed for additional developable
land.
2. The Commission concurred with comments made at the July 10th Joint Plan Commission that the
Master Plan calls for a Neighborhood Plan review prior to the approval of any individual
subdivisions. The Commission concluded that combining the Kilkenny concept plan and the
general plan considered for the Ganser land as presented at the Plan Commission meeting
satisfied this Master Plan requirement for the neighborhood planning requirements.
3. The Commission concurred with the proposed density of the development. The Commission did
consider that portions of the plat included lots not currently allowed by the Village’s traditional
residential zoning classifications. They concluded that similar lot sizes were previously platted
within Savannah Village and worked well with strict architectural control by the current
developer. They also found that based on changing markets conditions and conclusions made
by the FUDA survey that the general community supported smaller lot choices with restrictive
control on architectural review.
4. The Commission concurred with the general road connectivity and found that it was greatly
improved from the original submission with the elimination of cul-du-sacs and creation of 4
way intersections along the parkway. They also concurred with the 3-way intersection of the
Parkway and Tierney Drive and that a 3-way stop sign like Woodland Drive and Mill Road
would work well at that intersection
5. The Commission concurred with the proposed trail and park system and found that the park
dedication exceeded the Village’s 10% standard. The Commission did defer to the Parks
Committee for review.
6. The Commission asked for further clarification of the south Western portions of the development
(mixed commercial uses)
7. The Commission discussed the Peaceful Valley Parkway and concerns requested that staff work
with the developer on further consideration of traffic calming measures for the roadway.
8. The Commission discussed the connectivity of development with the Ganser property and
concurred with the trail connection, but requested that staff further study and consider the need
for the roadway connection.
9. The Commission considered the possibility of a school site in the development, but took no action
on this item. The Commission did discuss the school site at the intersection of Woodland
Drive and the Parkway and considered that to be a good possibility of a school and that a
school site on the Ganser property would also be a good possibility.
10. The Commission concurred with the revised plan that indicated an additional access connection
and parking lot to the larger southern park.
11. The Commission acknowledged that additional staff comments may be forthcoming and need
consideration when the full detailed application is made.
Public hearing closed at 8:29 p.m. No action taken.
