Docket No. 92-01 SP; Orin Jessup Land Co.'s 1Addition to the Town of Home Place, Lot
175a (Secondary Plat)
The petitioner seeks approval to replat a 2-lot subdivision on 0.47± acres. The site is located
th
southwest of East 108 Street and McPherson Street. The site is zoned R-3/residence.
Filed by Jim Vires of Benchmark Surveying for James A. Shelley.
The case was presented by Jim Vires. Initially this parcel was planned as a two-lot subdivision.
After much discussion it was decided to plat the land as a single lot. One duplex will be
constructed on it.
Chuck Shupperd had no comments
Steve Broermann sent Jim Vires a letter. All issues have been covered.
Rick McClain, John South, and Scott Brewer had no comments.
Steve Cash had no problems with the project.
Bill Akers understands this is a vacant lot. He will assign an address.
Gary Hoyt had no comment.

S:\TechnicalAdvisoryCommittee\Minutes\tac2001aug
Jon Dobosiewicz asked that the lot be labeled 175A and the secondary plat number 92-01-SP be
added to the plat. The primary plat number should be kept on the plat. He requested a mylar
and two paper copies of the plat be submitted to DOCS for signature. Mr. Vires may delay
adding the address to the plat.
Saddle Creek Subdivision, Sections 11 & 12 (Secondary Plat)
[Primary Plat filed under Maebeck Commons]
st
The site is located at the northeast corner of West 141 Street and Towne Road. The site is
zoned S-1/Residence.
Filed by Paul I. Cripe for Ditch Road Properties.
Tim Walter, Platinum Properties, spoke on behalf of the petitioner and introduced Arumugam
Skandarajah, Gary Murray, and Karen Kennelly of Paul I. Cripe. Secondary plat approval is
sought for Sections 11 and 12 of Saddle Creek Subdivision. Mr. Walter invited comments from
TAC members.
Steve Cash has spoken to the petitioner on the phone but has not written a letter yet. He will
need the procedural items for the storm sewers. The Stultz Almond Drain will be reconstructed
as part of this project. The primary plat has changed a couple of times. However, the latest plan
st
the Surveyor’s Office has does not show the street construction to 141 Street. In another plan,
that area was just open space. The drain is under sized. The County Surveyor determined if that
was to be used as an outlet, then the Stultz Almond Drain must be reconstructed down to the
woods where it empties out to the open ditch. Mr. Cash has not received the drainage calcs.
Karen Kennelly said they are available. Steve Broermann thinks there is an existing 10-inch
drain tile. Steve Pittman had the project initially; he received primary plat approval. Karen
Kennelly stated the area going into that drain is now less. Kent Ward thinks it needs to be
reconstructed. Steve Cash will study this. It may not be an issue depending on the amount of
drainage. Tim Walter stated that while they are doing a concentrated flow with the streets, the
area sheet drainage was greater before. Steve Cash will write comments. The discharge into
Saddle Creek should not be more than the pipes can handle.
Chuck Shupperd understands this is a continuation of Saddle Creek. The same steps will be
followed. Section 11 will the constructed first in mid summer or fall of next year. Section 10
will be done this year. Mr. Walter stated adjustments are being made to the prints. They will get
copies to Steve Broermann and Steve Cash.
Steve Broermann said his comments dealt with cleaning up the plans. The offsite improvements
need to be shown along with decel lanes, etc. All this information can be found in the Maebeck
Commons correspondence. Gary Murray requested this information be faxed to him. It includes
st
the three-foot shoulder, the widening of 141 Street, and the turning radius at the intersection. It
is not in the construction plans. Gary Murray stated Steve Pittman could not negotiate the
passing blisters with the land owners. Steve Broermann believes the Towne Road blister is
st
important and must be pursued. The 141 Street blister will not be constructed.

S:\TechnicalAdvisoryCommittee\Minutes\tac2001aug
Rick McClain said his company would continue as with the other sections. They will need
conduit crossings.
John South faxed a letter to the petitioner on Monday. Within the correspondence he made a
common statement on poorly drained soils. Basements have their limitations. The drainage
swale soil is not as uniform as the soil in other areas. The glacial effect carried in sand and
gravel not found in other sites. Additional caution must be used on the lots he numbered. Mr.
South did not see specs for swales or drain tile improvements. Steve Cash will require this. At
the north end of the project, the legal drain must be petitioned. Otherwise, there will be
breakdowns. Mr. Cash believes there is a field tile through there. John South added it travels
north into the pond. There is major drainage; surface water goes south. An actual swale is
needed to deal with the amount of water. A typical cross section must be shown. A total of 20
acres are involved. Tim Walter said Pulte Homes requested the front half of building pads be to
the required grade and then step down the back half one foot. The majority of homes in this
section will have basements. It allows the back yards to be a little lower and provides a place for
the basement dirt. John South wants a typical cross section of a finished building pad. There is
an area along the west property line that does not indicate seeding, drainage swale, or roadside
ditch. There is a right of way between the 10-foot pedestrian path and the road. Mr. Walter said
this would be addressed. Mr. South recommends temporary seeding on all the lots. This should
be shown on the plan. The silt fencing is not adequate. Tim Walters agreed to revise them.
John South wants the major swales reconstructed. If the subdivision is built in sections, it would
be helpful to show the erosion control plan that way also. Mr. Walter plans to do all of the earth
work, swale, and seeding in the first phase and wait to do the utilities later.
Scott Brewer has not written a letter yet. He was told the tree lawn will be five feet wide. Mr.
Brewer did not receive the spec sheet referred to on the landscape notes. It will be sent to him.
Scott Brewer suggested substitutes for some of the street-side red maples. Norway maples, sugar
maples, or American lindens could be planted. Any other oak than pin oak was also
recommended. The euonymus alatus is very susceptible to mites. Reducing the total number to
one third was suggested. Witch hazel, spirea, or bayberry are good substitutes. The planting
schedule and notes should be changed to indicate root crown will be at ground level. The plant
schedule should indicate deciduous trees and coniferous trees. The street trees should be planted
behind the sidewalk.
Bill Akers said a few streets need to be renamed. Maebeck will be changed. Two street names
are approved; one more is needed.
Steve Broermann commented on street names where there is not an actual intersection.
Individuals cannot find addresses according to the street name. A directional arrow is needed on
the street sign. It may be a separate plate or added on the sign itself. More than one street name
is required because of the curve in the street.
Laurence Lillig asked that the location of the beginning and end of the streets be shown on the
plat.

S:\TechnicalAdvisoryCommittee\Minutes\tac2001aug
Gary Hoyt requested heavy gravel at the point where Mustang Chase Drive ends to provide a
more efficient turn around for the fire department. The same situation occurs at the top of
Section 11. Mr. Hoyt will allow a hammerhead only as a temporary solution; a circle would be
better. A cul de sac radius will allow fire truck turning. Two and a-half-story buildings require a
good size truck. Mr. Hoyt asked the petitioner to remind subcontractors that access for fire
department equipment must always be provided.
Jon Dobosiewicz stated signs must be five feet from the right of way in both common areas.
st
Signs will not be installed between Sections 10 and 11. But, they might place a sign at 141
Street. Variable drainage and utility easements must be called out on the plat to avoid conflict of
landscape and utilities. Mr. Dobosiewicz asked the rationale for the dramatic change in
easement widths along lots 427, 428, and 429. Tim Walter responded the setbacks vary because
of the sanitary project. In some cases there is room to move the sanitary manholes. There may
be some error on the plat. Mr. Dobosiewicz suggested plating a utility corridor—a dedicated
strip. The trees can be pushed back. A new landscape plan must be submitted to Scott Brewer
with this change. There are no utilities accessing from the rear. Jon Dobosiewicz said to avoid
building pads in the easements. The sign detail should be shown on the plan. Anne Burget was
asked to provide correspondence addressing the name change and how this development relates
to the existing Saddle Creek in the use of common area and covenants and restrictions. The
Department needs to make a determination if an amendment to the primary plat is required.
Gary Murray said no lots have been sold. Jon Dobosiewicz wants existing owners to know of
the new lots to be added into the homeowner association. Laurence Lillig wants to know how
maintenance of the new lots will affect dues of existing sections. The developer has control of
the new section. Tim Walter agreed to this communication. A key map is needed along with the
primary and secondary plat document numbers. Mr. Dobosiewicz has issues with concrete
monuments and markers. A legend is needed. The names of county commissioners, the auditor,
and Mike Hollibaugh should be added to the plat. The normal flow elevation bottom and 100
year elevation of the ponds should be identified. The source of the title is needed. The dead end
easements should be addressed.
Laurence Lillig stated DOCS discourages listing lot addresses on the plats. An error would
result in a $560 fee and amended plat process for the petitioner. Otherwise, a correction can be
accomplished by administrative action. Bill Akers will assign addresses. Gary Murray would
prefer to leave addresses off the plat.
Jon Dobosiewicz said there is some overlap on the distances with lot numbers. There are some
non-standard street lights. If lights are other than standard, the petitioner is responsible for
replacement. Covenants and restrictions are needed.
Laurence Lillig inquired about covenants for the pedestrian parkway easements. Tim Walter
responded they are in the common areas. They are called sidewalk easements. Paths between
lots are not shown. If they are in the covenants, they should not be deleted. Mr. Lillig believes
st
they are not being used. At the corner of 141 Street and Towne Road, the sidewalk is shown
coming around and it does not show any extension or stub connecting to sidewalks on the other
4
S:\TechnicalAdvisoryCommittee\Minutes\tac2001aug
st
corners. This needs to be addressed. The paths on Towne Road and 141 Street should be ten
feet wide; they are scaled at eight. The internal sidewalk should be bumped up from four to five
feet.
Tim Walter committed to show easements but would like to move the trees farther away from the
right of way. Scott Brewer stated that would be okay. Ground subdivision signs will need
separate landscape details. These must be submitted with sign permit applications. Dawn Pattyn
should be advised this was previously Maebeck Subdivision.
Maco Press (Construction Plans)
rd
The site is located at 560 3 Avenue Southwest. The site is zoned I-1/industrial.
Filed by Mark Settlemyre of Cornerstone Surveys for Maco Press.
Mark Settlemyre and George Seidensticker, Maco Press, were in attendance and invited
comments on their construction plans.
Mike McBride wrote a letter to Mr. Settlemyre. The drainage configuration will be revised to
include the entire site. The existing building is 4,000 square feet in size. There will be no change
to the existing utilities. The 4,000 square foot addition will be warehouse storage with a truck
dock at the rear of the building. The original design included a detention area at the end of the
proposed addition to collect run off of the new paved area. However, Engineering suggested the
petitioner also detain storage from the existing conditions because there are drainage problems
from the pond and the ditch west of the addition. Options include underground storage or
creation of another swale. There will be no change to the existing curb cut. The woods at the
rear of the building were cleared for the addition. A buffer of trees was retained for the
subdivision behind the site. No additional stripping is planned for the parking lot; there will be
no additional employees. Mr. Lillig responded that the parking space requirement is based on
floor area and not on the number of employees. Maco Press is a commercial printer. The one-
story existing garage is 20’ X 22’ in size. The right of way on Third Avenue is 50 feet total. Jon
Dobosiewicz will calculate the required number of parking spaces. The lot does not need to be
stripped.
Steve Cash stated this is out of his jurisdiction.
Chuck Shupperd noticed there would be no conflict with service and the gas meter. The
warehouse will be heated and air conditioned. A data sheet was given to the petitioner to
determine additional load requirements to properly size the meter.
Rick McClain believes the building has three phase service now. Mr. Seidensticker said La
Fever Electric believes their service is adequate. Rick McClain suggested an engineer meet the
petitioner on site. They will use the existing service entrance.
John South sent a letter indicating the plans are acceptable. Mark Settlemyre will make
appropriate changes after the detention is figured out.

S:\TechnicalAdvisoryCommittee\Minutes\tac2001aug
Scot Brewer stated the parcel is zoned I-1 (Industrial-1) and has no specific landscape
requirements. The two existing street trees will not be affected. All equipment will enter the site
off Third Avenue. Mr. Brewer suggested orange barrier fencing to protect the remaining woods
during construction. He also requested a tree preservation plan to eliminate construction damage
to the trees. Scott Brewer suggested planting trees on the south property line; currently it is just
grass. The owner says there are trees along the fence line.
Bill Akers had no comments.
Gary Hoyt understands that the new addition will be connected to the existing building. The new
structure will be a warehouse. Mr. Seidensticker said at the present time there would be no
printing or large equipment within the new building. The water service comes in half way back
on the north side of the building and directly in front of the eight-foot concrete pad. There are no
plans to sprinkle the building. A one-hour separation might be needed between the warehouse
and older portion of the building. Mr. Hoyt will research this and tell the owner. The truck dock
would be a good place for the Knox box. He will mail a Knox application to Mark Settlemyre.
Jon Dobosiewicz stated 16 parking spaces are required based on the square footage. Because the
addition is in excess of 20 percent of the gross floor area, the business needs to comply fully with
the Ordinance parking requirements. The parking lot area will need to be curbed to comply with
the standard. Mr. Dobosiewicz believes the biggest issue is the provision of outside detention
because the hard surface area is doubling. There might be additional capacity in the detention
pond. Detention under the parking lot is another alternative. DOCS does not want water to go
out into the street. The street is elevated. The finished floor is built up about four feet. The
dock generally slopes down. Mark Settlemyre thinks the pond is full without the 100-year storm.
Kate Weese is concerned with the stability of the ditch that is up stream of the pond. Mike
McBride would prefer to see the detention off site. He does not know if the developer can use
the easement for his personal detention.
Laurence Lillig noted a gravel drive that travels to the west. There are dock facilities for the
buildings to the north. George Seidensticker thinks the gravel drive is used for truck parking.
The gravel road travels to Industrial Drive. Those businesses are not doing any paving. The
petitioner is paving just on their side. The road has been used as a shared driveway. It is easier
for the trucks to make a loop than to go out on Industrial Drive. UPS and trash service trucks use
the gravel drive. Only about two semi trucks per week use it. Jon Dobosiewicz does not want
trucks backing into Third Avenue.
Carmel Christian Church (Construction Plans)
The site is located at 463 East Main Street. The site is zoned R-2/Residence.
Filed by Roger Ward Engineering for Carmel Christian Church.
Roger Ward and Eric Gleissner, Roger Ward Engineering, explained the construction plans. The
church is located on East Main Street east of Range Line Road on the south side of the street.

S:\TechnicalAdvisoryCommittee\Minutes\tac2001aug
The expansion will be a 200-seat sanctuary. The existing sanctuary will be relocated into the
expansion area. The parking lot will also be enlarged to a greater number of parking spaces than
required by the Ordinance. A total of .3 acres of imperious area of drainage is being added. Mr.
Ward hopes to not add to the existing detention. They plan to take the storm water into the
existing system. During a 100-year storm event, the drainage would increase by only one cfs.
The existing utility services will be retained. Only electrical and telephone need to be relocated.
Mr. Ward spoke with Rick McClain today. The existing laterals on the western part of the site
will be used for the sanitary sewer.
Mike McBride and Kate Weese did the review for drainage. That is reflected in Dick Hill’s
letter to the petitioner. Concerns are with the existing storm sewer system; there are some very
minimal slopes on the storm sewer line. Even without down stream effects, Mr. McBride does
not think the slope is adequate. More detail is requested regarding drainage calcs for the water
shed. Engineering needs to know how much water is coming through the storm sewer. A break
down for each section is needed. The parking area should be curbed per the Ordinance. The
eastern edge is curbed, but other areas are not. The existing area and new area must be curbed.
Because expansion is over 20 percent of the existing building, the petitioner must satisfy the
existing standards. Jon Dobosiewicz stated if curbs are required there are two spaces that
encroach into the right of way. The petitioner will need to apply for a consent to encroach or
delete the two parking spaces. Mike McBride said detention in general is favorable because of
the location of site at the upper regions of the water shed. The City of Carmel does not have a
threshold cut off. However, if the petitioner can show this expansion will not adversely impact
the existing situation, then some consideration might be given. Engineering does not know what
is happening farther up stream. The slope is better along the east property line. The Utility
Department will determine if there will be additional fees or permitting required.
Steve Cash said this is outside of the watershed of the County drain.
Chuck Shupperd knows that relocation of facilities will not be required. He gave the petitioner a
customer data sheet to help them properly size their meter.
John South wrote a letter after reviewing the construction plans. Mr. Gleissner offered to add
more silt fencing at the proposed inlet.
Scott Brewer needs landscape plans. The architect for the project was asked to send plans to Mr.
Brewer. The original review was done in February. The switch to Colorado blue spruces was
not shown. The planning detail must indicate installation of root crown at grade level.
Frequently, new trees are planted too deeply by the nursery. This will cause the plantings to die.
Bill Akers had no comments.
Gary Hoyt understands there will be no sprinkler system. A Knox box will be added at the door.
The water supply enters at the front of the building. The survey did not pick up the meter.
However, the meter comes off of Main Street. It is important that the Fire Department know
where to locate the water shut off.

S:\TechnicalAdvisoryCommittee\Minutes\tac2001aug
Jon Dobosiewicz noted two handicap spaces are identified but there is no ramp shown. Mr.
Ward said it exists. The asphalt is built up to the integral curb and walk. Mr. Dobosiewicz
suggested connecting the curb and walk on the south side so they join. This will provide easier
pedestrian travel.
Indiana Development Training Center (Construction Plans)
th
The site is located at the southeast corner of East 111 Street and Pennsylvania Street. The site
is zoned B-5/Business.
Filed by Roger Ward Engineering, Inc. for the Indiana Development Training Center.
Roger Ward and Eric Gleissner were present to explain these construction plans. Mr. Ward said
th
the project was at one time called Arbor Hospital. It is located at 111 and Pennsylvania. The
petitioner would like to add a maintenance building. It will constructed on an existing basketball
court and some of the lawn area. This two-story building will be just a workshop area; there will
be no automotive repair. The petitioner builds their own cabinets, etc. for the center. The
building will blend in architecturally. It will be brick on the lower portion, stucco on top, and
will look much like the middle two-story building on the campus. Because of prior
commitments made in 1991, ADLS approval is required. The existing service connections will
be used. A storm sewer will need to be relocated.
Dick Hill said the site is outside of the City’s jurisdiction.
Steve Cash inquired about the amount of surface. One-third of the area is basketball court and
two-thirds is lawn. Steve Cash will not require the petitioner to contain on this project because it
is all internal. A permit will probably not be required. Mr. Cash will check. The drainage is
private and no design changes are needed. Roger Ward believes all the upstream watershed is
contained. Mr. Cash asked him to double check that with the 1991 plans.
Chuck Shupperd and Steve Broermann had no comments.
John South suggested inlet protection. Most of the grass can be preserved. A silt fence has been
added to protect the road.
Scott Brewer inquired whether any landscape materials are being removed. Mr. Gleissner
responded that only grass would be involved. If trees are taken out, Mr. Brewer said they should
be replaced.
Bill Akers had no comments.
Gary Hoyt knows there are Knox boxes on the building. He had no other comment on the
construction plans.
Jon Dobosiewicz stated approval is required for the DP Amendment and ADLS. No filing for
8
S:\TechnicalAdvisoryCommittee\Minutes\tac2001aug
the DP Amendment has been received. A public hearing will be required. A 25-day notice is
needed. The property owner made a commitment to not change the original plan. Therefore,
this action is required. Mr. Dobosiewicz had no other comments on the plans. He suggested
contacting Nancy Dotson at The Ledger for deadline details. If Mr. Ward is able to meet notice
requirements, this case will be placed on the September agenda.
J.C. Sipe Jewelers (Use Variance)
th
The site is located on the northwest corner of East 96 Street and Day Drive. The site is zoned
S-2/Residence.
Filed by E. Davis Coots of Coots Henke & Wheeler for J.C. Sipe Jewelers.
Fred Simmons, Simmons & Associates introduced Jeff Clayton and Patrick Shea, American
th
Consulting. The site is located at Day Drive and 96 Street just west of Tom Wood Lexus. A
4,200 square foot single-story building is planned. It will be somewhat residential in character.
The petitioner has met with Laurence Lillig and Steve Broermann and incorporated their
comments regarding rights of way, setback, signage location, etc. The parcel is just east of
project approved for the Paragus office complex. A variance of use is being sought by Sipe
Jewelers. Mr. Simmons brought six copies of the new plans that reflect changes associated with
comments by members of the TAC committee, primarily Laurence Lillig and Steve Broermann.
Steve Cash asked if this project is part of the Paragus overall proposal. Mr. Simmons responded
th
that Paragus decided not to purchase this parcel. There is just one curb cut off 96 Street. The
Sipe Jewelers property is not part of their drainage plan. Fred Simmons did not bring the
drainage study for this site to the meeting. Steve Cash only has the construction plans; he needs
the drainage calcs. The detention area should show the elevation for the 100-year storm. The
site will not require an outlet permit for the regulated drain. However, because the land is still in
the County, it will be under Mr. Cash’s review. He will made more comments upon seeing the
drainage plans.
Chuck Shupperd stated there is gas at the street. He distributed a data sheet and asked the
petitioner to contact the Veltren representative to determine load requirements.
Steve Broermann requested a copy of the revision. The plan is acceptable.
John South sent a letter to the petitioner. It is feasible to eliminate the dry detention swale at the
north end and leave the area as existing, natural vegetation. If dry detention storage is required,
the petitioner could consider the parking lot storage as an alternative. Preserving the natural
vegetation would be a plus. Mr. Simmons indicated they would have a more accurate survey of
the trees on the next plans. He feels it may be possible to configure the detention to avoid some
of the trees. But, he does not think they can do the detention area in the parking area. Only four
or five inches can be stored in a parking area. A larger parking lot would be needed. He will
attempt to shape the pond around some existing trees. Mr. South stated an erosion control plan is
needed.

S:\TechnicalAdvisoryCommittee\Minutes\tac2001aug
Scott Brewer has not written a letter yet. He would like as little disturbance as possible to the
25-foot landscape easement. As part of their approval process, Paragus had to do a reforestation
plan. The site is completely wooded and is zoned residential. By taking trees away for a
commercial situation, they might need to reforest the land to give back some of the trees. Mr.
Brewer suggested a substitute for the red maples. They are over planted and tend to be invasion.
A total of 13 shade trees is not sufficient. More plantings are required for the landscape buffer.
The north side is okay, but the east, south, and west sides do not meet landscape requirements.
Mr. Simmons thought no buffering was required on the east and south. Laurence Lillig said
under a use variance there are no landscape requirements. Mr. Brewer is speaking of the
standards the Board of Zoning Appeals would typically apply. Scott Brewer suggested planting
along the edges of the pond if the petitioner is having trouble finding space. He gave examples
of species that do well in wet situations.
Bill Akers has an address and will send a letter. He asked that the address be placed on the
monument sign or building for public safety reasons.
Gay Hoyt sent Mr. Simmons a letter and he has responded.
Laurence Lillig said it appears the information he requested has been provided. A cut sheet for
the light poles is needed. The plans are sufficient. When the petitioner is ready to go to
construction on site, it will be necessary to return to TAC. A 15-day deadline is observed for
inclusion on the TAC agenda. Mr. Simmons said if they receive BZA approval they want to start
as quickly as possible. Mr. Lillig stated DOCS will advise against Board of Zoning Appeals
approval and will recommend this be done as a rezone. Dave Coots filed a revised application
th
form for this matter. The docket number is UV-96-01. It will be on the September 24 agenda.
Pike’s Spring Mill Heights, Section 1, Lot 5(part) (Developmental Standards Variance)
th
The site is located at 335 West 107 Street. The site is zoned S-2/Residence.
Filed by Darren Peterson of Peterson Architecture for Gary L. & Denise Klett Lewis.
Darren Peterson introduced Gary Lewis, the homeowner, Jeff Langston, Heartwood Custom
Hom es, and Eileen Barbour, Peterson Architecture. Mr. Lewis would like to add on to his home
to create a three-car garage. He now has a two-car garage. The addition is within the side yard
setback and would be in violation of development standards. The petitioner requests permission
to build the addition.
Steve Cash sees no problems with this proposal. There is no easement along the property line
where the garage addition will be constructed. There are also no storm facilities. Mr. Cash has
no objections
Darren Peterson has received a letter from the County Highway Department along with others.
Copies are in the case file.
John South sees no impediments or practical reason to keep the 10-foot side yard for drainage.

S:\TechnicalAdvisoryCommittee\Minutes\tac2001aug
Scott Brewer asked them to replace any trees that would need to be removed for this addition.
Bill Akers and Gary Hoyt had no comments.
Laurence Lillig has not met with the petitioners before filing. This parcel is on part of lot 5 in
Spring Mill Heights Subdivision. Mr. Lewis is the owner of the entire lot. He wishes to enlarge
the garage to give more storage space. The space might be needed as a bedroom for a mother-in-
law in the future. Mr. Peterson considered other locations on the lot for the garage but none were
feasible. A detached garage was not desired. The lot is served by septic. That field is shown in
the back yard. Other landscaping on site includes trees and an existing fence. Mr. Lillig had no
th
other questions. A docket number will be issued and the case heard at the September 25 Board
of Zoning Appeals. Notifications will be explained in Mr. Lillig’s letter.
The meeting adjourned at 11:46 a.m.
