She <br />reported that the application is for a conditional use permit to allow grading within o <br />the south lot line. No variances are required. A retaining wall is proposed to be located <br />2' from the property line. Grading will increase the driveway width to 3’ from the <br />property line. If this is not approved, the retaining vyall must be located 5* from the <br />property line. Incorrect aerial photographs were used in determining the gra mg p ans <br />and resulted in the current situation. <br />Van Zomeren said the three-car garage has a severe turning problem; typically, 30 is <br />required. The plan proposes 24-25' instead of the original 21'. The purpose of the <br />grading is to increase the distance for ingress/egress into the garage. <br />Issues of concern regard drainage, snow removal, car emissions, and problems vdth cars <br />driving over the proposed wall. Along with the conditional use permit required or <br />grading, the Commission is asked to consider where the wall should be located and how <br />it affects the flow of drainage. <br />The Builder, Bruce Bren, was present. He indicated he was not creating a problem but <br />attempting to solve a problem. Bren said he was attempting to accomplish what waswas <br />submitted in the plans to the City while retaining drainage on the Silus property. <br />\ <br />\k <br />&>
