yBoard of Review Regular Meeting November 20, 1979 Page #6 Gary Polackzyk, 187 17th Avenue S.W., stated that he preferred a wider access to watch the children in the park and provide more safety. He desired fencing around the park area, was concerned about overall neighborhood density, and adequate access to the park. Sue Hardman, 240 Oakwood Drive, noted that a number of area children use the hill for sliding. She felt it was important to retain the sliding area. The area where the single family homes are proposed has always been considered a part of the park.. Commissioner Livingston asked the applicant from what direction would the garages face. Mr. Cadwallader, stated the garages would be entered from the N~~St. Sue Hardman, stated she didn't really want the single family homes for a buffer. Commissioner Williams inquired about private space for the residents of the condominium. The applicant noted that he was uncertain about the area until the park issue is resolved. Laura Fruth, 1729 3rd Street S.W. felt that the sliding area. should be fenced off. Mr. Swenson commented that the sliding area should be retained and that he would rather have a different type of development because he was concerned over density in the area. Mr. Cadwallader stated that the residents in the condominium would have an association with bylaws and before these persons purchased a unit it would be very .clear to them which areas are public. He voiced a concern over describing the park property. He felt that it is not desirable to have the park boundaries right outside the building because of the development limitations that would be created. Mr. Polackzyk felt that the garages should be on the west side of the building and felt that the City and the developers should consider moving some dirt and possibly some equipment to make the best use of the land. Sandra Poffenberger asked if there were any plans for a hockey rink.
