Approval of minutes from the February 5, 1004 meeting. Chairman Herb stated the minutes were approved as corrected.

New Business:

Commissioner Herb explained that the purpose of the meeting was for Charles Dean, the developer of the Henderson property, to review and explain proposed changes he was wanting to make to the development concept plan approved by the P&Z Commission on February 5, 2004.

Mr. Dean explained that the new concept plans being proposed had the following changes made from the concept plan approved on February 5, 2004:

---Pool and cabana were moved from the west entrance side of the development to the north side of the development fronting the river.

---Tennis courts were eliminated

---Roadways were re-designed to eliminate the “oval race track” design originally proposed and replaced with one major road running along the river with four dead ended roads coming off this main road each having park medians in them.
--Increased the number and configuration of the development lots from being 10 Estate lots and 70 village lots to instead now be 9 Estate lots and 73 Village lots.

-- Added large evergreen trees along the south side of the Village lot #73 to provide a screen buffer.

There was discussion among the Commissioners about how much improved the new roadway design was from the original plan and the added value of having the pool and cabana being moved to be fronting along the river. This provided a 100 foot common access to the river now instead of the originally proposed 20 foot common river access. There was agreement among the Commissioners that the proposed changes to the original concept plan were worthy enough to allow the development to have 2 additional lots designed in the new development concept plan.

Commissioner Moore made a motion to approve all of Mr. Dean’s changes to the concept plan.

Commissioner Belt seconded the motion.

A vote was taken. Commissioner Moore, Belt and Hammond voted in favor of the motion to approve the revised development concept plans. The motion was approved.

There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 8:54 pm.
