The Chairman asked if anyone present wished to be heard. Mary Jane Goetzfried of CCL Consultants came before the Board representing that owners and developers of Treasure Ridge Golf Course. Their client's position is that attachment of conditions to this plan are premature, and they question the basis for those conditions. Mrs. Goetzfried stressed that pursuant to Sec. 25.3 of the County Code, which they are working within, today's issue is a determination as to the appropriateness of the use of the golf course, and its compatibility with the permitted uses within the RM -6 District. In the site plan process, they will be required to develop explicit.and very detailed engineering and vegetative surveys, etc. Mrs. Goetzfried continued that staff refers to design and performance standards for wet retention system, and the lakes designed now are for aesthetic and irrigation purposes only. As to the very specific criteria set out in staff's memo, she noted that while the Board may be familiar with the sand ridge draft ordinance, none of this has been workshopped or available to the public prior to this. She further noted that they will not be able to pull any permits to develop the course until they get St. John's and DER permits. With reaard to removing the overburden located on the site, Mrs. Goetzfried noted that about 60-650 of the site has been mined down to 241. The remaining overburden is within the 150' buffer area, and in all likelihood, that material will remain on there to be used in the contour grading on the site. They are working within the ordinance regarding sand mining, and until it is determined that material is not used, they would like to have the ability to remove it if necessary. Mrs. Goetzfried stated that they would like the Board to approve the special exception plan with no conditions. The Chairman determined that no one further wished to be heard and thereupon declared the public hearing closed. 39 BOOK � J U L 14 1987
