Special Requests:
Block Length. Heritage Commons has one block, Block 21, on the south side of
Tradition Street, that exceeds the allowable block length. We ask that the block length be
exceeded in this one location.
Bo
Sales Trailer. As an allowed use with the planned development, we propose the use of a
sales and information trailer. At this preliminary phase, no specific site is identified.
However, at the first final plat, we will identify a lot and block, and submit a site plan to
staff for review. It will comply with the underlying setbacks applicable to the selected
site.
Since Heritage Commons is a multi-phase project, it is appropriate to have a sales and
information office on site at all times. We ask for the opportunity to move the trailer to
another site in a future Heritage Commons phase. At that point, we would submit
another site plan and location for staff review and approval.
This specific request should be applied to the entire Heritage Commons planned unit
development.
14. The property owner agrees to pay any additional sewer, water or trash fees or charges,
if any, associated with this use.

Re: Perimeter Fencing Plan - Heritage Commons
Enclosed herewith is the fencing plan for Heritage Commons (Quenzer Commons Subdivision).
Perimeter fencing will be constructed when a subdivision plat is adjacent to perimeter of the
entire planned development. I have also enclosed an example of the 6-foot Wood fence.
We do not intend to install perimeter fencing adjacent to VOigt Development (Sundance) to the
west or the Farwest Development to the northwest, which is soon to be submitted.
