Zoning File #1366 <br />February 9, 1989 <br />Page 2 of 2 <br />Planning Commission felt that the septic testing for this <br />property was necessary, and recommended conditioning subdivision <br />approval on completion of appropriate testing. Preliminary <br />borings had been completed early this winter, but perc tests <br />could not be taken due to the frozen ground. The site evaluator <br />has preliminarily indicated that septic sites appear feasible <br />within the proposed boundaries. Staff had initially recommended <br />to Planning Commission that the subdivision be approved with the <br />requirement* of septic testing before a building permit could be <br />issued. In keeping with the Planning Commission's concerns, <br />staff is recommending that preliminary plat approval be granted <br />under the condition that drainfield sites be fully tested prior <br />to final plat approval. With this procedure, the property owner <br />has the ability to complete his survey work and submit it to the <br />County Engineer for preliminary approval, while taking a slight <br />risk that, although not anticipated, septic testing might <br />indicate the need for minor lot line revisions. <br />Planning Commission Recommendation <br />At their January 17th meeting. Planning Commission voted <br />6 to 1 to recommend approval subject to the nine conditions noted <br />in the Notice of Planning Commision Action (Exhibit A). <br />Staff Recommendation <br />Staff recommends approval per the recommendation of the <br />Planning Commission. A resolution for preliminary plat approval <br />is attached for Council review.
