The applicants are seeking Preliminary Plat approval to
divide approximately 50.0 acres into two (2) single-family
residential lots of ±7.5 and ±42.50 acres (residue). These
two (2) divisions will exhaust all subdivision potential on
the property. The residue parcel shall be dedicated as
non-common open space. Each property will be served by
individual wells and drainfields. A copy of the Preliminary
Plat is attached.
Section 9-7 of the Subdivision Ordinance requires that "…all
preliminary plats approved by the Planning Commission shall
be referred to the Board of Supervisors at its next
regularly scheduled meeting…If the Board takes no action on
the preliminary plat referral, the preliminary plat shall be
deemed approved in accordance with the actions of the
Planning Commission." |

No action
is necessary, unless a majority of the Board wishes to
consider this preliminary subdivision application. On
December 8, 2004, the Planning Commission voted to approve
the Sullivan/Foldenaur Preliminary Plat, subject to the
conditions noted below:
1.
The Final Plat shall be in general conformance with
the Preliminary Plat entitled “Preliminary Plan Division of
the Land of Patrick T. Sullivan, II, Evelyn B. Sullivan &
Mark A. Foldenauer” dated July 6, 2004, signed by Kenneth A.
Marceron December 23, 2004, except as modified by these
conditions. This approval is for a maximum of two (2)
residential lots.
- All
driveway culverts shall be a minimum of 15 inches
diameter and pass no less than a 10-year storm.
- When
submitting the Final Construction Plans, a complete
landscape plan shall be provided with full detail of
planting type, size and location pursuant to Article
7-603.2 of the Zoning Ordinance.
4. The County recommends that no below grade basements be
constructed on soils with high water table due to wetness
unless the foundation drainage system of the structure is
designed by a licensed professional engineer to assure a dry
basement and preclude wet yards and recirculation of pumped
or collected water. Where possible, all exterior foundation
drainage systems shall be designed to gravity daylight
without assistance from mechanical means. All discharged
water (mechanical or gravity) must be conveyed to an
adequate channel. Drainage easements, where necessary,
shall be placed on the final plat. A note shall be placed
on the final plat stating that “Basements are not
recommended in mapping units 12A, 15B, 17B, 17C, and 48B.
Basements in these mapping units are subject to flooding due
to high seasonal water tables. Sump systems may run
continuously, leading to possible premature pump failure.” |
