Evermoor Planned Unit Development Amendment
City Planner Pearson presented an amendment request that would change two neighborhoods in
the Evermoor development. The Distinctive Townhomes (Innisfree) north of Birger Pond would
become detached units (single family) instead of twinhomes. And, the Active Senior
neighborhood, Crosscroft, south of Shannon Park Elementary School, will have a new street
design that simplifies circulation and creates a larger space for the Association building. This
eliminates the street connection to Shannon Parkway after Phase II, and allows additional units
as a result of efficiencies created through the new street design. Architectural renderings of the
housing styles were submitted for the amendment request. Additional landscaping was added
including 48 blue spruce trees. Council was pleased with the additional single family units.
Councilmember Edwards did not approve of the small lot size. Councilmember Klassen reported
that the construction operations now in progress need some signage for safety on Shannon
Parkway and when large equipment is left, it should be parked in an orderly fashion. The
Developer agreed to talk with the grading contractor.
MOTION by Cisewski to adopt A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE AMENDMENT TO
THE PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT FOR EVERMOOR. Second by Klassen. Ayes:
Cisewski, Busho, Caspar, Edwards, Klassen. Nays: None. Motion carved.
