Commissioners asked several relevant questions.

Gene Delaune of 2828 Linden Drive, across the street from the Lindsey Court Development, spoke next, expressing disappointment in the information that has been made available to the residents.

He was informed that Les Proper has been involved, who Mr. Delaune expressed confidence in at the last meeting. Mr. John Feges of Nedegaard Custom Homes, spoke, stating they go far beyond minimum standards in regard to landscaping requirements. He stated the price of these townhomes will be in excess of $325,000 as a beginning price and owners will have a high expectation in regards to the grounds. He explained the specifics of the retaining wall and the pond and the visual impact. th Debbie Bondy (sp?) of 1086 – 27 Ave. NW, spoke next stating it would be beneficial for a visual barrier not only between the new development and across Linden but also in the back yards.
