Resolution No. /099 <br /> Page 68 � <br /> � - <br /> B. NATURAL LAND FEATURES <br /> 1. The steep slopes and marshy flood plains of the <br /> Study Area are not suitable for any development, <br /> residential or commercial. Almost all land suitable <br /> for development has already been occupied by homes , <br /> most in the area of 100 to 1000 feet from the shore <br /> on the gently rolling slopes . <br /> 2. Flood hazard areas adjacent to Stubbs Bay include <br /> � the Marina property and all of the East Lake Street <br /> residential area . <br /> 3. On site sewage treatment is impossible in the <br /> flood hazard areas . Effluent may be "disposed of" <br /> • but it is not adequately treated before absorption • <br /> into the ground water table or leeching into the <br /> Lake itself. <br /> • �. HISTORIC DEVELOPMENT <br /> 1. The development of the Stubbs Bay Resort and <br /> residential area in 1915 occurred because of development <br /> speculation connected with the Luce Line Railroad, not <br /> � as an extension of existing development. Adverse land <br /> ' �and Lake) conditions hindered rather than fostered <br /> � %development a� this location. � <br /> � y , . <br /> 2. . The area would have remained a minor development <br /> of summer cabins had it not been for the housing <br /> crunch after World War II. <br /> � <br /> . 3. Had the railroad not been built (the railroad <br /> � itself has proven unecoriiomicl the Stubbs Bay Area <br /> would not have been developed and the Resort would • <br /> likely have never been constructed, particularly <br /> not at this location. <br /> � , <br /> � <br />
