,%Ir. @Valter i@loiialian appeared before C4ty Council on the proliosed
Boiq Creek proposal. ,Ir. -%Ionalian stated three altcriiatives:
1. To buy the property for opon space mijriicipal use.
2. Develop, under the present zc)nin,@, 420 single family
homes.
3. Provides housiiig but also retains the majority of the
property as open space - @olf cotirse.
Mr. Monahan stated that "here are sone I)rimary factors particularly
to access. It's in an area that's alre:idy built up so tliere will
automatically be some problems as far as @etting in and out of the
area. The two main factors are:
1. Physical character of the site, the topo,.,raphy, etc.
2. The way iii which the course is now layed out, the
existing course and the potential for the ne@v course.
3. Probably the most important item from the Planning
standpoint would be the visual relationship of units,
both types of units, condominiums,-sina.le family housing
you have now, and the golf course.
Mayor Cromwell stated that the main thiii,@ he was interested in
was that the property would remain open space or a golf course.
The @layor further stated it was also the primary concern of the
residents.
i%lr. Joel Smith, President of the Princess Anne Plaza Civic Lea@ue,
appeared also on the property and stated he thought it would b-e
a good alternative to have the 400 hoifles, but the public is
faced with three things:
1. Multi-family - 1000.
2. 400 or so sin.@le family hollies
3. Bond referendum
@Ir. Smith stated that the residents of tho Plaza have been pushin@
for voter approval oii Bow Creek. Nlr. Smith furthci- stated that
if we waited too long to study all of the proposals the oiiner
iRav decide to accept the first offer to develop tlie 400 sin@le
fa;aily homes.
