PIPAN: (Nods in the affirmative) CARR. SMITH: So, is the applicant part of this conversation and planning to be sworn in and speak, or what? PIPAN: Yes, thank you, Carr Smith, Commissioner Carr Smith. We didn't ask them to prepare any testimony of their own, so they are here to answer questions about potential commitments that they would make regarding layout and development and so forth. If you do have questions for them, I believe they are to be sworn in and answer those questions. Thanks. BARIBEAU: Just to add, that is correct, they are here with me in the room, so if there are questions, they can totally be sworn in. CARR SMITH: So, Mike, are we, we are doing our 10 minutes of questions now— VITOUSEK: Yep. CARR SMITH: —or we are waiting for a motion and then having that discussion now? VITOUSEK: No, giving everybody 10 minutes to answer questions, to ask questions of the applicants, Planning Department, and then once everyone is satisfied with the information that they have, then we can make a motion and we can have a discussion on the item. CARR SMITH: Okay. Can go ahead with my questions then? VITOUSEK: Yes, yep. CARR SMITH: Thank you. Thank you. I'd like to get a little more clarity about the arch sites on Lot number 5. It seems like they are significant-my word, not a technical word. And I'm having a hard time, number one, imagining how you are going to get two houses on Lot number 5 as that even being an option, with those sites and with the setbacks that were talked about previously. I wondered if the 20-foot road that you just spoke about, John, is affected by the setbacks of those sites. Maybe you can answer those first. PIPAN: So, yes, thank you, Commissioner Carr Smith. The sites we have mapped currently are based on information from the archaeological inventory survey, and those were mapped using hand-held GPS devices that are generally only accurate to about 15 feet,plus or minus. They state in the AIS that they use various mapping technics to refine that accuracy into about a five-foot range, plus or minus,but there is still some uncertainty in the exact position. So the proposed roadway is drawn to avoid the approximate location of those sites, but should the actual metes and bounds survey of the preservation area require revision of the subdivision layout, we would make those revisions at the proper permitting process, or prior to getting final subdivision approval. But, conceptually, this layout makes sense for six lots; none of them are smaller than 22,000 square feet, and it looks like the access is feasible and reasonable to be provided to all lots. Does that answer your question? 9 DRAFT
