To: Jeanne A. Mabusth, Building & Zoning Administrator From: Michael P. Gaffron, Asst Planning & Zoning Administrator Da.:e: February 8, 1988 (The 78th Aniversary of the Founding of the Boy Scouts) Subject: #1247 Robert Po --humus, Big Island Record Lot 40 This application results from the applicant's attempt to creat+r an acceptable site plan for a property on Big Island. He h.-% the appropriate survey with topography and septic testing comple,A by Adva,sce Engineering. They proposed a house location and septic system design which, taken together, were not feasible in staff's opinion. After having reviewed the septic design with Dr. Machmeier at the University Extension Service, it was determined that the initially proposed design was not suitable. After meeting with the applicant and his engineer, I put together a potentially feasible site plan with appropriately designed mound systems and a cabin location requiring a side setback variance. On Big Island, because this lot exceeds 100' in width, the required side setback is 30' However, you will recall that on any lot on Big Island less than 100' in width, only a 10' mid-- setback is required. Applicant is requesting to use a 10' side setback which I would not have a problem with. The other variance and conditional use permit applied for is to locate a well 50' from the Lake- shore instead of the required 75'. The variance is to allow structure and excavation work in the 0-75' zone, the conditional use permit is required for the grading work in the 0-75' zone. Please refer to my letter to Robert Posthumus dated January 19, 1988, with the attached diagram showing the proposal and feel free to discuss with me any questions you might have regarding that application.
