MIWUTES OF A REGULAR IIEnTING HELD MAY 1, 1972 <br />Van Nest asked Mr, Roberts how much land of <br />the 6h acres v/as high land, as much of it was <br />obviously low. Mr. Roberts told him about <br />acres. <br />& <br />Searles moved, Ryerse seconded, that since <br />the division met code requirements, approval <br />be recommended. Motion, Ayes (10) - Nays (0). <br />Ray ilitiiun represented himself in a petition <br />for a subdivision of property legally described <br />as Lots S-6-9-10-11, North Shore Cottage <br />Acres. The property being divided being <br />that sect' 'i. on the lake being part of Lot 9 <br />all of Lot 1j and part of Lot 11 consisting <br />of 74,000 sq. ft. or about 1-3/4 acres. Mr. <br />?litliun presented pictures of the subject <br />property and a statement from Henry Skarp, <br />Goodrich Lowry and James McNeil stating <br />they are in favor of the subdivision as <br />requested. He showed that properties to <br />the east of his property are all approximately <br />tue same size or'smaller than the proposed <br />lots would be, while the properties to the <br />west are all larger. <br />Searles was of the opinion the lot sizes <br />should be a blend of the two. His cliief <br />concern was the installation of septic systems. <br />When asKed if adequate septic systems could <br />be installed on the property, the Building <br />Inspector stated it was up to Hr. Mithua to <br />show that he could place adequate systems on <br />the property and this could only be determined <br />by percolation and soil tests. <br />Gasch asked why there had to be four lots <br />in view of the fact that tlie lots would not <br />bo anywhere near the zoning requirement of <br />Ih acres. Mr. Mithun stated it was simple <br />economics, the assessed market value being <br />over $90,000 and the taxes $4,000. He iiad <br />bought the property to construct a home <br />for himself but he could not afford to use <br />it unless he got a reasonable division. <br />Mithun stated that if the property were <br />divided he would wish to comply with all <br />local and State septic ordinances even if it <br />meant keeping sealed septic systems. <br />Q Elliott moved, Searles seconded, that the <br />division bo tabled for tuo weeks for a closer <br />study of tiie area and the property. Motion, <br />Ayes (10) - Nays (0). <br />Page 2 <br />DIVISION <br />(Continued) <br />DIVISION <br />1065 Ferndale Road West
