Planning Commission Meeting Minutes September 11, 1996 Trudy Martinco said she was not opposed to the subdivision, but was concerned about grading, fill, drainage, and loss of trees. James Killow, 2225 Acorn Road, expressed concern about the impact of 6 lots on the new road and the saving of trees. This subdivision would reverse the effort by grading almost 4 acres of trees. The proposal does not meet the character of the neighborhood. Chairman Wietecki asked for size oflots to the north (one acre and 3/4 acre). Chairman Wietecki asked if the wetland could be filled if determined to be Type 1 wetland. Jay Kennedy reported that the watershed study was necessary to determine impact on grading and trees. Art Mueller reported that the new road would remove six trees. A total of nine trees would be removed from the site under his current plan (except for areas where houses will be installed). By new planting, the property owners to the north will not see the new homes. There was no further public comment. Chairman Wietecki closed the public hearing.
