Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unaniinously and the public hearing opened at 7:43 p.m. Mr. Sobtech, Public Works Director, pointed out the general location of this plat and that the Plamm �g Commission has recommended approval Mr. Sobtech stated the plat will consist of 1% acre parcels and stated there would be appropriate drainage and utility easements along the lot lines. He stated there are no developments proposed at th�s time for the property, but �ndicated, w�th future development, provisions must be made for dra�nage and the method of retention or detention. He pointed out that any potential developers for this property should be made aware there is a requirement for drainage retention. Mr. Sobiech stated he felt, �f developers get together i�, developing this property, there wouldn't be any problem taking care of the drainage since the area is large enough. Councilman Schneider questioned how the drainage would be taken care of, if the parcels were developed separately. Mr. So6iech stated, at the �ime the building permtt is issued, it would be indicated on the permit that the frequency rate of stormwater run-off would not 6e any greater than it was before development. Counctlman Hamernik felt the Commission wanted the drainage taken care of before issuance of the building permit. Mr. Sobiech felt thts was dtfficult to do without develcpment plans. Mr Sobiech also felt �t could be stipulated, with the plat approval, that any future development must take tnto account the drainage retention. He stated, in the past, affidavits have been filed with the plat so that developers are aware of this requirement. Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated he didn't feel there was a great difference whether the Council wtshed this drainage requirement to be tied in with the plat or the building permit. He stated, if the Council feels more comfortable with havtng a notice filed with the plat, this would be no problem. , � IC HEARING MEETING OF JANUARY 75, 1979 PAGE 2 Councilman Fitzpatrick stated this part�cular area is an area where the Environmental Quality Commission �s very sensitive. He felt, even though the City has taken care of drainage in the past, with the issuance of the building perm�ts, he thaught �t might be better to recognize the problem prior to this time and at the time the plat is filed. He felt th7s was an immediate concern on the part of the Environmental Quality Commission. Mr. Sobiech stated he would concur with CouncTlman F�tzpatrick's comments as he felt this drainage requirement would then come to the immediate attention of potential developers. Mr. Wormsbecker, the pet�tioner, indicated he was not happy with the drainage system on the property and indicated they would be w�lling to go along with the staff's recommendation. Mr. Wormsbecker stated he has a company interested in development, but it would cost them �9,000 to set up the drainage. He stated he can see there is a problem with run-off, but is not quite sure how to handle it. Councilman Hamernik felt, if the matter of drainage was handled for the entire parcel, this may reduce the cost. Mr. Wormsbecker felt, if this was done, you may get into a problem regard�ng the location of retention ponds, since you don't know for sure where a developer may want to locate hts build�ng, f°ir Wormsbecker stated the staff is recommending thts piece of property be platted, otherwise they probably wouldn't proceed with the platting. Mr. Sobiech stated, with development of the House of Lords, it was recommended this property be platted rather, than having metes and bounds, and making it easier to develop. Mayor Nee stated, from Mr. Wormsbecker's comment, he was under the impression they didn't want to market the property. Mr. Wormsbecker indicated th�s was not the case and they were �nterested in marketing the property. No persons �n the aud�ence spoke for or against this plat MOTION by Councilman Hamernik to close the public hearing. Seconded by Councilman Barnette. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously and the public hearing closed at 8:57 p.m. NEW BUSINESS DTSCUSSION OF LICENSE FEES: AND TION OF FI CHAPTER 11 OF THE CITY Mr. Brunsell, City Clerk, stated the staff made a review of all license fees charged by the City. He stated a cost study was made on all the fees to try and determine the cost of issuing each license including all inspection work that goes a7ong with the �ssuance of a license. Mr. Brunsell stated the Council is requested to consider a proposed ordinance, as showr on Pages 2B and 2C of the agenda book, that lists the suggested l�cense fees where changes are recom�nended. He stated this list accounts for about one-th�rd of the licenses the City issues and the ma�ority of the fees did not change and, therefore, are not included in this ordinance. Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated the fee has to bear some relationship as to the cost of admtnistering the license. MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to wa�ve the reading and approve the ordinance upon first reading. Seconded by Councilman Hamernik, Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. 0. 11-1979 AUTHORIZING GHANGES IN THE APPROPRIATIONS FOR THE MOTION by Councilman Schne�der to adopt Resolution No. 11-1979.
