Fretham stated they will be <br /> mitigating on another site and this site will be brought above the 100-year floodplain elevation. <br /> Crosby stated in his view a wider driveway is necessary as well as a sprinkler system for the homes. <br /> Chief Van Eyll indicated the fire hydrant is located at the end of the road by the lift station. <br /> Seals asked if the applicant would be willing to construct one house. <br /> Fretham stated that is a possibility but that they are interested in constructing two properties. Fretham <br /> noted the property has been taxed as buildable lots for many years and that there are a number of <br /> properties in town that have also been filled. <br /> Walsh asked if he is fine with the comments from the fire chief. <br /> Fretham indicated he is fine with them and that they were not unexpected. <br /> Crosby asked if he is willing to limit the house to one story. <br /> Fretham stated they are looking at a payxnent to that property owner to change the view easement which <br /> would allow them to build two stories in order to shrink the footprint of the homes. <br /> Crosby asked what type of footprint they are considering. <br /> Fretham indicated they are looking at 5,000 to 6,000 square feet. <br /> There were no public comments regarding this application. <br /> Gaffron noted in front of the City Council are two letters from 1987 and 2012 between the Lupient family <br /> and the property owners of those two dates in which the Lupient family allowed the use of the southerly <br /> end of the 3560 property to have a boat lift. Gaffron indicated the applicant will have to work that out at <br /> some point. The property owner at 35600 has expressed concerns via their attorney with regards to the <br /> close proximity of the house as well as drainage and runoff issues. <br /> Page 19 of 34 <br />
