REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION DATE: December 7, 1994 ITEM NO.: Department Approval: Name Jeanne A. Mabusih Title Building & Zoning Administrator Administrator Reviewed:Agenda Section: Zoning Item Description: #1985 Bruce Bren Homes, 1000 Cox Farm Road - Conditional Use Permit Continuation of Public Hearing - Resolution Zoning District: RR-IB, requiring 2 acres of dry contiguous area. Total area of property^ = 3 + acres. Additional Exhibit I - Amended Grading Plan Brief Description of Request For more detail and background on this review, please refer to the original staff memo of November 16, 1994 and the minutes of the Planning Commission meeting of November 21st. Applicant s building permit application was referred to the Zoning Department for a conditional use permit as filling activities were in excess of those allowed under the authority of a building permit, limited to 100 cubic yards of fill. Review the amended grading plan. Exhibit I, 300 cubic yards of fill are necessary to create a building pad that would allow a rear walkout design to Dickey Lake. The City Engineer sees no problem with the proposed filling as drainage will be directed to both the north side lot line to an existing drainage ditch and a swale to the south side of the residence will protect the septic sites at the southwest comer. Driveway grades have been reduced to an acceptable slope not at 4%. The three member Planning Commission recommended unanimous approval of the conditional use permit subject to the City Engineer ’s approval of an amended grading plan redefining grades for the access drive and designating a swale along the south side of the residence. Gustafson has approved the amended grading plan. The enclosed approval resolution has been drafted per the findings of the Planning Commission approval. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED: To close the public hearing and to either adopt or amend the enclosed approval resolution.
