After reading and re- reading your information, I've <br /> decided that I whole-heartedly can't consider any of the options. I've spoken with many council members and <br /> Lili, and they agree, that revisions need to be considered with the wetland buffer code. Guidelines are just that. <br /> We as humans still have the power to make judgement calls when there are circumstances that require it. <br /> Triggers are just triggers. To dispute: 1. drainage to the wetland, it's hard pressed for any of the runoff getting <br /> that far without seeping into the ground before it gets there. 2. We will be regrading the area so the runoff will <br /> be toward the tennis court and a berm to the right of the pool. 3. The added hardcover is still way under the <br /> allowed percentage, so that should not even be considered. Is this pool project really going to harm the wetland <br /> area? Pve lived on this piece of property for almost 26 years and I've loved taking care of it. I only want to <br /> make it more enjoyable for my extended family and generations to come. My hope is that the code will be <br /> changed to allow the distance to the wetland be a factor. I would like to finish the septic system next spring <br /> along with the pool. If my 51/2 acres were divided into 5 lots, 4 of them could have pools. In conclusion, I am a <br /> victim of a vague code, new obstacles thrown in in the l lth hour, and poor information about whether or not I <br /> even have a wetland on my property. It was questioned by surveyors, wetland specialists, a delineator, <br /> excavators, elevation guy for the pool, and my septic installer. I am asking you to please revise this code in my <br /> favor. <br /> Thank you again for your time and consideration. <br /> Respectively, <br /> Rachaelle Brady <br /> Sent from my iPhone <br /> i <br />
