Richard Howell and architect, Barry Petit, were present. Mabusth stated that the Howells are asking for a variance to construct a new residence. Rovegno asked about the driveway plan and noted that they should have a turnaround on the p-operty. Barry Petit, architect, noted that they would have a loop dr iveway which would create the turnaround on the property. Sime asked if there was going to be a great deal of filling because of the topography of the back yard. Sime asked if a retaining wall would have to be constructed to help the erosion problem. Richard Howell stated that there would be extensive filling in the back yard and possibly a retaining wall. Barry Petit stated that they were examining a nier system for the back yard. Mabusth noted the private access easement that intersects the property for 50' along the north property line. Rovegno moved to approve a variance for Richard Howell to permit construction of a new residence based on the following hardships: 1. Severe slopes on east portion of lot restrict building envelope. 2. Only area available for on-site septic systems intersects the building envelope. 3. The proposed development of Tract B is consistent with development of lots within surrounding neighborhood.
