HIHUTBS OF THE PLUHRIBG COMMISSIOH : • A:TIHG OCTOBER 17, 1988 <br />11.HIZONIEG PILE #1348-0. lARRT LEE COHTIEl <br />corridor being platted to the Morgart property. There is <br />currently a connection with Highview Lane, but due to steep <br />grades and the potential of major tree removal, this would not be <br />a practical access. Mabusth explained a proposal submitted by <br />the City Engineer for an access. Mabusth observed that due to <br />the alignment of the property lines and the major wetlands, this <br />option may not be acceptable. Chairman Kelley inquired as to <br />whether a rezoning would be necessary for the two northern lots? <br />Mabusth responded that the property would not be rezoned. <br />Mr. Kraatkremer began his presentation by providing a bit of <br />history regarding the proposed subdivision. He said that working <br />with all of the property owners and developing the area as a <br />whole, was a much better approach than attempting development a <br />parcel at a time. Kelley asked about the Soskin subdivision <br />application. Mr. Krautkremer stated that he also represented Mr. <br />Soskin. Kelley suggested that the Soskin matter be included with <br />the O. Larry Lee matter when it is next presented. Mr. <br />Krautkremer explained that his intention was to do that. <br />Mr. Krautkremer said that he had seen the house plans <br />proposed for one of the lots. He described the house as <br />"fabulous" and added that all homes to be built in the area would <br />enhance the surroundings and topography. He said that he had <br />communicated with many of the adjacent property owners and <br />apprised them of the development proposals. Mabusth interjected <br />that at this time, the major concern of the neighboring <br />properties and the City was drainage. <br />Mabusth apprised the Planning Commission and concerned <br />neighbors of the the current drainage pattern. Mabusth explained <br />that the construction of the road would redirect the drainage so <br />it would flow between the shared lot lines of Lot 6 and 7 and up <br />to the roadway to a drainage ditch located on Lot 1 of the Soskin <br />property. Kelley asked if the runoff would flow through piping <br />or a swale? Mabusth answered that it would flow through pipes. <br />Mr. Krautkremer added that the size of the piping would be <br />determined at a later time. Krautkremei rurther advised that <br />there was a retention pond that would be expanded to handle the <br />runoff. Mr. Valek, one of the property owners, had indicated <br />that the pond would be an amenity for the properties. <br />Mr. William Bull, a property owner to the south, expressed <br />his concerns over the proposed drainage. He explained that the <br />proposed area was very low and had a tendancy to hcive 8 to 12 <br />inches of water every Spring. Kelley asked where the water <br />drained from that area. Mr. Bull said that currently, it did not <br />drain anywhere. Mr. Bull added that in previous years, from the <br />middle of his property to the back property line and 50' on the <br />other side of his property, there is a pond. Mr. Krautkremer <br />addressed this concern by saying that he would be willing to work <br />with Mr. Bull.
