Opened Public Comment.
Terry Szewczyk, Applicant
This is a simple flag lot configuration. Unfortunately, the existing house needs to be
demolished due to the required width of the corridor. The conceptual site plan provides
massive Fire Department turnaround which is the standard nowadays. The panhandle is
on the northerly side which follows the topography. Drainage will head out on the new
driveway.
Closed Public Comment.
Committee members discussed the matter.
MOTION: Motion by Robert Gray to approve with required findings and
recommended conditions of approval. Seconded by Corvell Sparks.
VOTE: Motion passed unanimously.
Appeal rights were recited.
