IPUBLIC HEARING
Agenda Item !3 Continuation of Public Hearing regarding L. 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.
