<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> In the Leslie case, the Planning Director believes that it did not actually <br /> change how the lots were laid out, or where the roads were built, etc. However, <br /> the subsequent Board of Appeals case brought to light the existence of at least <br /> 80 burials that will undoubtedly affect boundary lot lines and the proposed <br /> location of infrastructure. <br /> <br /> Simply said, the Planning Director is saying why ask for information up <br /> front when it can be given later. But later can be after permanent and irreparable <br /> damage has been done to the land that no amount of money can ever <br /> compensate or replace. <br /> <br /> This is unsettling since this is only one of the hundreds of subdivisions that <br /> have the potential for legal challenges. And this has happened because of the <br /> Planning Director's power of discretion. We do not feel comfortable adding more <br /> of the Subdivision Code to discretion and taking away from informational <br /> requirements. <br /> <br /> We oppose the passage of Bill 246 and suggest that a comprehensive <br /> review of the Subdivision Code in its entirety be conducted instead of deliberate <br /> piecemeal changes. <br />
