B. The development will serve seniors in a way the responds to the `.- anticipated demands for developments with high-amenities (page 26). This development contains a number of recreational amenities on site, as well as facilitates a recreational lifestyle that will appeal to seniors. C. The development provides for increased economic development opportunities by responding to the aging and shifting demographics (page 33) identified in the plan. D. The development aids in creating the transient population needed to support a destination downtown(page 37). E. The project site does not contain any rare species habitat (page 43) or significant forested areas (page 45). The development avoids significant and/or sensitive natural resources and is in a suitable area with proper soil and slope characteristics (page 56). F. The proposed development retains the existing natural features on the property by avoiding areas of greatest topographic change and wetlands on the property (page 56). This is done through clustering of development on those parts of the site most suitable for development. G. The advanced sewage treatment proposed for the site is a sustainable approach that is encouraged in the plan(page 56). H. The proposed development increases the private recreational opportunities available within the City(page 64 and 65). I. The proposed development creates a private resort, which provides affordable recreational opportunities (page 65). J. The proposal is along an existing roadway corridor and makes use of existing transportation infrastructure (page 73). K. The sewage treatment system proposed for the development will be clustered and managed by a licensed operator(page 80). 32. The proposed use of an RV resort, with appropriate conditions, is compatible with the existing neighborhood. Many of the surrounding properties are undeveloped and are zoned for forest management and long-term, low density development. The overlay district indicates the compatibility of this style of development with the adjacent land uses. 33. The proposed use, with conditions, will not be injurious to the public health, safety, welfare, decency, order, comfort, convenience, appearance, or prosperity of the City. 34. A letter has been submitted by Jeff Oelke with comments on the EAW. The concerns expressed by Mr. Oelke are addressed through this permitting process and the EAW response. 35. The proposed use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding properties. These properties are mostly large- tract forest management property, the development pattern of which is low- density residential or sustainable forestry. These development patterns would not be impacted by this development. 36. Hurtig Road is an improved local road. Improvements to the roadway necessary to accommodate this development have been agreed to by the applicant and the City. Planning Commission Minutes 4 February 15, 2007
