Andrew Dimas replied for CN-1 it is 4.5-acres. Commissioner York questioned
the UTP Amendment and the effects on the Oso and the 100-year floodplain.
Annika Yankee,with the Planning/ESI Department, commented that in not all
cases will it be completely out of the A Zone, it was shifted as much as
possible.Commissioner Williams asked if there was encroachment of the
wetlands and Annika Yankee replied there is a chance to some degree. Dan
McGuinn,with Planning/ESI mentioned that some of the floodplain area would
likely be reduced down and avoid the wetlands for permitting sake.
Commissioner Schroeder shared concern for the 100-year floodplain being
possibly affected and asked what other mechanisms are in place to not impact
the floodplain. Dan McGuinn said these plans are a guide and the Engineer's
design would ensure that the roads,elevations and ditches are positioned and
most likely there will be a map amendment. Commissioner York asked if the
changes were in line with the area development plan. Annika Yankee
responded yes. Commissioner York stated usually when roads are platted,the
developer/land owner is responsible for contributing to construct the road but
because of where this is placed(on the floodplain), he inquired if the City had
plans to participate in half of the street construction. Dan McGuinn responded
the City does not own property there.When asked about studies being
concluded, Dan McGuinn responded that a study of La Voilla Creek is being
considered.
