Ms. Cravey inquired if a portion of the 132.5 acres of land could be dedicated to open space and
how big the easement behind the homes would be. Additionally, she stated that she's concerned
about her street flooding and the traffic and congestion that will develop as a result of the
development. In reference to the easement, City Manager Leiper stated that currently staff was
not sure of the proposed easement, but stated that the utility easements are generally sixteen feet.
Mr. Chuck Hams stated that he's on the Goose Creek Country Club Board of Directors and that
the developer is planning to improve two of the lakes that are currently in the area, re -do the
swimming pool, and refurbish the tennis courts. He stated in reference to the easement that there
is a drainage ditch behind the fence line and as discussed with the engineers, there's no plan to
come pass the drainage ditch with anything.
Mr. John Peterson stated that he's a member of the Board of Directors of Country Club and
although he hates to see it go, is in favor of the alternate development.
Ms. Anna Schroeder stated that those that are not equity members of the golf course are the ones
that are against this proposal. She stated that the reason that they purchased their house located at
4106 Goose Creek Drive was because of the golf course which increases her property value.
Additionally, she stated that she is against the proposal.
Mr. Tucker Coughlen, a member of the Board of Directors of Country Club, stated that the club
was utilized by more nonmembers than members for various functions. He stated that he didn't
think that the traffic would be much different, because according to the plot plan most people
will travel from Emmett Hutto Blvd. Mr. Coughlen stated that he is going to recommend that the
new homes be rezoned and for those students go to Lee High School. Additionally, he inquired
as to what happens next from this point. Mayor DonCarlos stated that a zoning amendment must
have a six (6) member vote by Council, in which at this meeting only had five members present.
