A <br />TO; <br />FROM: <br />DATE: <br />Ron Moorse» City Administrator <br />Michael P. Gaffron, Asst. Planninq & Zoning Administrator <br />May 13, 1992 <br />¥ <br />SUBJECT: Greg Ehalt Letter - Vacant Lot <br />Analysis of His Claims <br />5/11/92 - <br />9 <br />-IpifeJ' <br />' :A <br />iK <br />& <br />iC:M:. <br />km. <br />w. ■ <br />List Of Bxhiblts <br />Exhibit A - Ehalt Letter and Sketch <br />Exhibit B - Staff Sketch witn Topography Overlay and <br />Drainfield Site Potentials <br />In Ehalt's third paragraph, his analysis of our discussion is <br />• lightly skewed. We indicated that his only hope is to prove to the <br />Council that he had a buildable lot meeting all the setbacks without <br />the sewer, and perhaps the Council would then consider a reduction in <br />the assessment. <br />Based on Mr. Ehalt*s sketch, which is not to scale, I remain <br />absolutely unconvinced that this lot uuildable today with only a <br />lot area variance. I would make the following co^anents: <br />1. The topographic overlay was in our files, apparently done <br />about fifteen years ago. I would not vouch for its absolute <br />accuracy, but it does indicate generally the slope <br />percentages and directions on the property. <br />2. Based on my drawing, I would argue that his 35' wide <br />proposed house could only be 30' deep on the left side, 35' <br />on the right side, and still meet the 50* front setback and <br />100* creek setback. This yields a 1,000 s.f. house under <br />his scenario. <br />3. He has not included the required 20' setbacks from the <br />drainfield to the house. Once these are accounted for, <br />drainfield area "A" is 40*x90', with the slope from 6-14% <br />running absolutely perpendicular to the rock bed. The rock <br />bed cannot be placed above original grade having an end-to- <br />end slope of more than 2%, the average grade under this rock <br />bed would be 6%, making this rite with this orientation <br />absolutely unusable. <br />Em-t % ■ <br />It <br />Bitm <br />f' <br />t;-: <br />JS.r
