E. Dillon Subdivision Application Mayor McGraw reopened the public hearing at 7:12 p.m. noting L. E. Dillon, the applicant, was in attendance. Code Compliance Officer Wiltz reviewed the request and read the recommendation of Robert Burke, Planning Consultant for the City. The recommendation of Mr. Burke was to approve the request based on the following conditions: 1. Curbs will be required along the private road and turn- around. 2. A drainage system be installed to adequately handle the drainage from the street and turn -around, and that it include an oil -silt separator to reduce pollution potential from off -site run-off. (The irrigation canal is adjacent.) 3. Require the improvements to be installed within one year or a performance bond be required by the City's Code Compliance Officer. ' 4. The Community Association Covenant regarding street maintenance be approved by the City Attorney. 5. The plat drawing be modified to indicate the above conditions and to include an approved signature block for the City Code Compliance Officer. City Attorney Zimmerman reviewed Chapter 16.16 of the Subdivision Code listing the requirements. Mr. Zimmerman explained the different options the Council could take to approve changing the zoning from Planned Unit Development to Major Subdivision. (7:12 p.m. Councilmember Cassel was excused from the meeting due to another commitment.) Mr. L. E. Dillon, East Wenatchee, the owner and applicant of the subdivision, reviewed the plat for the Council and explained what had been done up to this time. Mr. Dillon said selling the present units would enable completion of the plat; a homeowners association would be formed; and City maintenance would not be required as it is not a city street. Mayor McGraw closed the public hearing at 7:46 p.m. ' Councilmember McKee said he. could not support the plat as it is substandard in relation to street widths, required curbs, gutters, and parking. Councilmember Hendricks said the application should be denied and returned to the Planning Commission as it did not appear ready for final plat approval. - 4 - - S - NaaTo AITo 'goTaJlsao •g eTUTBJTA H•a oz's - iNaKNunorav ATzalienb pagsTTgnd aq pTnoM 066T uT buTlIPIS pue ATge.TapTsuoo pasea.zOUT peq JaIIDTsMaU ATgluow aql ;o Isoo aqq pies Mej!)OH JOAeyy •qls pue qlL Asen.Tgaa uo eTdmATO uT aouasa;uoo uoTlay aATIeTsT597 AITo 066T aqq buTpualle aq pTnoM aq pTes Me.TooH JoAeH •pualle of ueTd szagmam TTounoa Mau aql papuemwooai aq !STeToT33o paloaTa ATMau Jo3 uoTlequaTio ue buTluasa.zd seM SaT1To uOgbuTgseM 30 UOTgeiOOSSfj aql paounouue Me.zoow joAeH lHod3v SHOAVR '0-S 'ATsnowTueun paTs.Teo uOTlow aql •UOTSSTwmoo bUTuueTd aql 3o uoTlepuawwooas aql Auap of SXoT.zpuaH lagwawTTounoo Aq puooas 'aaxoH aagwamTTounoo Aq apem seM uoTIOw y •uOTssTwwoo buTuueTd aql OI pallTwgnsai aq pTnoo sueTd TeuTbTio aql se papuTOsas seM uOTlow STU •UOTSSTmmoo bUTUUeTd aql of UOTIeOTTdde aqq u.Tnlai of 'sbuTTTOo-TagmamTTounoo Aq puooas 'SXoTzpuaH iagwamTTounoo Aq apem seM UOTlow y :UOTg0V TTounoo
