is where there is going to be a significant amount of grading. So, has there been any like
<br /> analysis on the engineering level to figure out what that's going to do to the drainage?
<br /> KAY: Not that came in with the application, and, again, this is something that is, that condition
<br /> requires appropriate engineering to keep project-related runoff on the property, so they would be
<br /> required to do that. And if that didn't happen, then they would be in violation of that condition
<br /> of the ordinance.
<br /> VITOUSEK: Right—
<br /> KAY:
<br /> ightKAY: If it's carried through.
<br /> VITOUSEK: Well, I mean, it just seems like that might be information that would be really
<br /> helpful in making the determination on whether a subdivision like this is feasible, to have it in
<br /> advance, rather than saying, oh, yeah, we can do this, we don't know whether it's going to work
<br /> or not,but
<br /> •
<br /> KAY: Well, that's also addressed at the subdivision portion of the process, so prior to
<br /> subdivision that would have to be addressed to make sure that that condition could be met.
<br /> VITOUSEK: Is there ever–I mean, you know, forgive me for not knowing–but is there ever
<br /> any kind of situations where that would be identified in advance to this? Because basically this
<br /> is like the first kick in getting the ball rolling, and it, you know, seems to me like it would be
<br /> helpful to really understand all the ramifications of getting the ball rolling before we kick it.
<br /> KAY: Yeah, based on my experience mostly for smaller subdivisions like this, I mean, if there is
<br /> a proposed roadway, there may be,some pre-engineering done, but for a subdivision like this
<br /> where it is just a driveway lot, or a flag lot for a driveway, it's not usual that that comes ahead of
<br /> time.
<br /> VITOUSEK: Then the, you know, again, on the question about the water and water service, is
<br /> that, is that something that,because it's touching the road, that considers it's within the service
<br /> pressure area and then the applicant is responsible—
<br /> KAY: No, it has to do with elevation, the elevation of the lot. So, I don't have the memo in
<br /> front of me, but essentially what it said was from the original proposed subdivision, which is
<br /> Figure 2 of that original application, indicated the lot, proposed Lot No. 99-5 and No. 99-6,
<br /> would be considered out of the pressure zone, so—
<br /> VITOUSEK: Okay, but 99-4 is in.
<br /> KAY: Ninety-nine-four is in, and so 99-4, if you look at, if you look at the new proposed two-lot
<br /> subdivision, the lower boundary of 99-4 is roughly where the lower boundary of the upper lot in
<br /> the two-lot subdivision is, so that would be within, the new lot would be within that service area
<br /> and water service could be made there,
<br /> VITOUSEK: So if they were to locate their house in this area, it would be serviceable.
