ROSEVILLE PLANNING COMMISSION Page 8 Wednesday, July 11, 1990 Johnson asked whether the land owners would have to provide drainage. Andert stated that if the water drains into the neighbors yards that they should landscape to take that into account. Keel stated that the onus falls on the property owner, not the neighbor. Hasek commented that this is only a lot split, drainage is a separate issue. Hasek stated that all the property owner needs to demonstrate is that the location and rate of drainage will remain unchanged. John Charles of 2418 Cohansey voiced his opposition to the split. He stated that there would be no economic loss to the proposed buyer if the lot split was denied, but 5 or 6 families could lose value in their house if it were approved.
