APR 15 1981 066 ATTORNEY STEVE HENDERSON CAME BEFORE THE BOARD REPRESENTING THE APPLICANT, MR. & MRS. DORAN. HE EXPLAINED THAT THE PORTION OF THE PROPERTY TO BE REZONED IS COMPOSED OF 8.1 ACRES AND THE REMAINDER COMPRISES ABOUT 9 ACRES. THE DORANS HAVE DISCOVERED THAT THEY HAVE ABOUT FIVE ACRES LESS THAN THEY ORIGINALLY THOUGHT THEY HAD IN THE R-3 AREA AND ARE DOWN TO A MAXIMUM BUILD -OUT OF ABOUT 186 UNITS, WHICH IS SUBSTANTIALLY LOWER THAN ANTICIPATED. WHILE THEY ORIGINALLY APPLIED FOR R-3 TO MAKE THE PROPERTY CONSISTENT, THEY ARE WILLING TO GO TO THE 8 UNITS UNDER R -2B. ATTORNEY HENDERSON NOTED THAT THIS PROPERTY COULD BE DEVELOPED AS COMMERCIAL UNDER THE PRESENT ZONING, BUT THE DORANS DO NOT WANT TO GO INTO COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT. HE BELIEVED THE DENSITY WOULD AVERAGE OUT TO ABOUT 10.5 PER ACRE BETWEEN THE TWO PARCELS. IN REGARD TO SEWER AND WATER, ATTORNEY HENDERSON STATED THAT --THEIR PLANS ARE IN THE HANDS OF BEINDORF & ASSOCIATES, AND THEY INTEND TO LOCATE SEWER AND WATER FACILITIES ON THE SOUTH- WEST CORNER ACRE OF THE PROPERTY. THEY HAVE ATTEMPTED TO NEGOTIATE WITH GENERAL DEVELOPMENT AS TO THE POSSIBILITY OF TAPPING INTO THEIR FACILITIES. ENGINEER JAMES BEINDORF REPORTED THAT ALTHOUGH THEY HAVE NOT YET GOTTEN INTO THE ACTUAL ENGINEERING, THEY DID SOME INVESTIGA- TION O.THE SHALLOW AQUIFER TO THE SOUTH OF THIS PROPERTY 4 OR 5 YEARS AGO, AT WHICH TIME IT WAS INDICATED THAT THE SHALLOW WATER AQUIFER WOULD BE TREATABLE WITH LIME SOFTENER. HE DID NOT ANTICIPATE ANY PROBLEM WITH THE SEWER. COMMISSIONER FLETCHER BROUGHT UP THE FACT THAT THIS IS IN A FLOOD PLAIN AREA. HE WISHED TO KNOW IF THE LAKE ON THE PROPERTY � WILL FLOW TO THE RIVER AND HOW THEY PLAN TO DEVELOP THE PROPERTY, MR. DORAN REPLIED THAT THEY WILL CREATE THE PROPER ELEVATION TO COMPLY WITH THE FLOOD PLAIN; THE L'AKE WILL NOT FLOW TO THE RIVER BUT WILL BE PARTIALLY FILLED IN AND WILL SERVE FOR ON-SITE DRAINAGE; AND THE BUILDINGS WILL BE THREE STORY SPANISH ARCHITECTURE WITH EXTENSIVE LANDSCAPING.
