'-- ~ ~ Signe Nicholson made a motion to recommend to the Town Council that we deny the Rl Zoning for the entire 80 acres of the Comer property because it is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. A second was made by Shirley Welker. Motion failed to pass with 2 voting yes and 5 nay. Vern Kimmel abstained. Steve Edwards at this time brought to the attention of all parties present that Signe Nicholson did in fact prepare the Comprehensive plan as was in fact paid by the Town for her work. Bill Abbott made a motion that we recommend to the Town Council to accept the petition to zone the 80 acres in question to Rl. A second was made by Steve Edwards. Motion passed with 5 voting yes and 2 nay ( Signe Nicholson and Shirley Welker). Vern Kimmel abstained. Mark Peden, ROSS Holloway and Darryl Swinney then presented the preliminary plat maps to the Board for review. There were several items needed for the final plat approval and these will be given to Ross Holloway (attachment). Bill Abbott questioned the drainage design and Ross said the land is flat but flows to the south and southeast which flows into a lake. There will be an easement acress Lots 18, 19, 20, 21 and 46 for a detention basin. Erosion control will be on the slopes and ditches. Bill Abbott said he felt there needs to be some protection for silltation so it does not reach lake property during construction. Darryl Swinney said they have agreed to buffer mounds which the existing neighbors would like. These will be shown on the final plat. Bill Abbott made a motion to accept the preliminary plat approval as submitted. A second was made by Vern Kimmel. Motion carried unanimously 8-0. Ralph Foley, and Ross Holloway presented the preliminary plat on behalf of Environmental Development Corporation. There will be a detention basin in the north corner. It was also pointed out that they will need street grades and location of storm sewers on the final plat. Tim Currens told Ross Holloway that there will need to be something in the covenants showing that a homeowner cannot fill the drainage detention area. Bill Abbott asked if they have a water commitment and developers replied they did not at this time but they will be working with Hoosier Water Company. Steve Edwards made a motion to approve the preliminary plat subject to meeting these requests. A second was made by Vern Kimmel. Motion passed 6-1 with Charles McGuire voting nay. Shirley Welker abstained. -4-
