Dreyer said he hasn't come up with the exact sizes and price ranges of the <br />houses, and he declined to estimate how much he's spent so far or how much <br />the project would cost. <br />Resistance remains <br />But the new plan has been little relief to many of the Capital Drive residents <br />who were alarmed by the first one. <br />Peggy Fisher has lived in a Capital Drive house abutting the southern end of <br />the Dreyers' property for 25 years.

Conditions include protecting <br />natural features such as trees and other vegetation, preserving open space, <br />maintaining streets, sidewalks and bike paths, and managing off-site impacts <br />such as noise, traffic and water, among other criteria. Also, PUDs must be <br />"reasonably compatible and harmonious with adjacent and nearby land uses," <br />under the code. Planners can approve an application with conditions, spelling <br />
