The next item was presented from the floor by Jerry Feinstein of Residential
Communities of America and Tommie Peterson for an amendment to the previously
approved RCA development of 95 lots known as Unit I of Phase II of Hidden
Lake.PUD. The request was for 18 of the 95 lots to be 1215 sq. ft. living
area single family units without garages or carports.

and said his opinion is that a mixture of homes makes a better appearance
than homes with garages which have been closed in. After discussion, Mr. Franklin
moved to approve eighteen 1215 sq. ft. living area single - family units without
carports or garages, but with a 18'x 20' concrete slab for parking located
in the front yard setback. The 18 units to be spotted throughout the Unit 1
development in accordance with sq. ft. living area requirements approved
for each block. Mrs. Roberts seconded. Motion carried over the dissenting
