~.... .. Planning and Zoning Meeting January 7, 1997 Mr. Schweppe asked "What was the proposed width of the road from Centerville Road since it was constructed at 34 feet?" Mr. Kytonen said the width of the road right of way will be 60 feet with a 34 foot road. March mentioned the City Engineer has not submitted comments on this development. Tourville suggested Planning and Zoning have an opportunity to review the engineers comments prior to approval. Hatem Qamhieh, 7251 Clearwater Drive, questioned the water run off to the creek and requested directing the drainage to flow to the west away from the creek. Mr. Black explained the storm water system directs the water flow away from the creek but some water will flow into the creek. Mr. Qamhieh said there must be protection since the creek is eroding and wondered what there is for protection. Tourville asked ifthere is a sedimentation pond needed. Mr. Black commented during construction the creek will be protected from sediment and erosion. Mr. Qamhieh mentioned several years ago the creek was about 7 feet wide now it is 15 feet wide, he felt it was due to run off from developments. Mr. Qamhieh suggested directing water to Centerville Lake instead of the creek. Bill Lalonde felt too much building is going on, at least until the school, sewer system and water towers catches up. Mr. Lalonde requested Planning and Zoning not put this before the council on January 8th. Mr. Lalonde said for the record "He is not in favor of this development although this is a nice development". Mr. Lalonde was not in favor of any encroachment on the pines and rough trees on the property and suggested the roughest trees be taped off for protection. Mr. Lalonde recalled an artesian well on the west side of the property. Lots 8, 9, and 10 of Block 3 will not be able to be filled. Mr. Lalonde is against allowing the city to accept park dedication fees in place of park dedicated land. If the City is not able to maintain the park, they should slow down on development. Mr. Lalonde feels the drainage should be addressed. Further, a minimal digging time should be allowed and if exceeded, apply a penalty of$500.00 per day. Mr. Lalonde felt re-sodding instead of re-seeding is necessary and he is for a moratorium on building in the city. Bob Knabe, 7241 Main Street, questioned the drainage on Main Street since it appears the drainage is collecting on his property, north of the proposed development. Mr. Knabe suggested cleaning the culverts out so the water runs free and doesn't back up. Mr. Schweppe suggested placing the Hensel home in another area to avoid an eye sore. Mr. Black mentioned it is a very nice home and Royal Oaks would do what they can to match the Hensel house with the other new homes. Tourville asked if the Police and Fire Department wanted Centerville Road to go through? 3
