Rick Roesch of Habitat for Humanity appeared before the Committee along with John Krom and a representative from Miller Engineering. The Habitat group met with the surrounding neighbors who had expressed concern at the public hearing. The petitioner's position is that they meet the Ordinance requirements. The major issue outstanding is the drainage. s:~minutes\comttee\subdiv 1999 feb 3 Doug Hall, Miller Surveying in Noblesville, explained the features of the lot, the lot area, and the county regulated drain. The proposal is to re-route the regulated drain across the center line of Lot 42-2 parallel with the right-of-way line, and divert straight south along the eastern property line of the center lot, and re-connect with the county regulated drain. There will be a system of swales provided around each of the homes and property lines to divert surface water to inlets. David Parker, 1028 Bristol Road, Indianapolis was recognized by the Chairman. Dave Parker addressed the Committee with the following concerns: Drainage; Adverse effect on property values in the neighborhood; Density; Utility connections and Street widths that are very narrow. Mr. Parker submitted a letter to the committee outlining concerns. Mr. Parker repotted that a neighborhood meeting with the Habitat group offered no resolution to the issues involved. There was discussion regarding the existing trees on the property and efforts to preserve. The possibility ora tree survey was mentioned; Mr. Roesch stated that every effort would be made to save the trees, however it was obvious that several trees would be destroyed to make room for the homes. There was much discussion regarding the issue of drainage. The drain is county- regulated and the plan must be approved by the County. Mr. Roesch is to submit a letter from the County approving the drainage plan within the next two weeks prior to the Plan Commission meeting of February 16. Chris White moved to recommend approval of Docket No. 100-98 PP/SP, Habitat for Humanity, seconded by Norma Meighcn. NO DECISION VOTE 3 in favor, Kent Broach, Leo Dierckman and Norma Meighen opposed.
