Wednesday, December 02, 2009 7,:47 AM <br />Tim Gladhill <br />5161156th Lane NW variance <br /> <br />To.: City af Ramsey ~ Baard af Adjustment <br />Fram: Dave Weller 15700 Juniper Ridge, neighbar af Mark Hilliard <br />Re: Letter af support far Mark Hilliard's building varian <br /> <br />As a neighbar af Mark Hilliard I wauld like to. suppart his request far shed <br />building variance. As the current lacatian stands it is almost invisible to. <br />all the neighbarhoad hames and when siding is campleted the shed will nat <br />be naticeable to. anyone. <br /> <br />As the awner af my awn excavating, sewer, water cannectian campany Mark <br />asked me to laak at the proposed alternate building site praposed by city. <br />This lacatian will cause a number af problems the city staff neglected to. <br />cansider. First, it will take several trucklaads af fill to. create the size <br />building pad needed and this is gaing to. affect the drainage and change <br />waterdrainage and paaling an his lat and passibly ather neighbaring lats <br />as well. <br /> <br />Other seriaus prablems the city staff didn't cansider in their propasal is <br />that Mark's well is located in the pack of his property near the new <br />building I~catian. If the extra fill brought in changes the law area where <br />water poals each spring it could put standing water near his well casing <br />which might cause seriaus water quality issues. <br /> <br />Finally, If Mark ever needs a drill rig to. relacate ar re-drill his well <br />far water problems in the future it will be impassible to. get a well truck <br />, back into. his property to. do. the work because the shed will be built an the <br />anly place to. drive the equipment in to. wark an the well. I dan't think the <br />(fity staff even cansidered these issues. <br /> <br />I suppart granting an adjustment that wauld let Hilliard keep the building <br />an the sauth side af the driveway. It is a lacatian that best uses his lat <br />and will nat bather any neighbar and I don't think the city staff have <br />cansidered all the impact af their propasals on mark's property and <br />well system.
