Nov 0 5 1991 uoo� 8 4 107 Director Keating felt the attorney would advise that the Board does not have the discretion at this time to make any changes. This has been advertised for discussion of LDRs, and at that time the Board can make changes in the amounts. Commissioner Scurlock felt the issue needed more study, for staff to see what the impact would be in going to an acre and a half. It may not be a major impact, but he was not ready to make any decisions. Chairman Bird felt as long as there is a residence going up on a lot, he could see no reason to invoke the requirement of a retention pond. Director Keating explained the reason Roger Cain allowed the change from one-half acre to one acre is the mitigation of stormwater management. Attorney Vitunac suggested a variance in situations where putting in a retention pond would call for removing a lot of trees, that would be reason for a variance. Chairman Bird clarified that is the direction we are giving staff. Ms. Manning asked if the owner of the property could ask for a variance in this case due to the fact that the property is dry and due to the fact it will be costly to remove the trees. Chairman Bird explained that, as sympathetic as the Board. may be, and the fact that there has been some dialogue that may lead to a change, we do not have the ability in place to grant that kind of a variance. Ms. Manning asked if her choice is to hold up construction until November 20. Chairman Bird said her choice is either that or comply with the requirements that presently exist. Chairman Bird asked and Roger Cain confirmed staff will look into the matter and come back with more information.
