Ms. Schneider stated that <br />she would research the park dedicati6n ques~tion~ as she remembered Flintwood I. <br />Mr. Art Dunn stated that he was not comfortable with using a mounding system for <br />the sewer, and suggested certification of each building lot. <br /> <br />Also discussed was the pondi~g area for drainage, and Mr. Raatikka reminded <br />Mr. Carson of a drainage problem existing still from Flintwood I. <br /> <br />Conditional Use Permit - Case O~'George'DiemertIII <br /> <br />A public hearing was held earlier during the evening with Mr. Diemert III <br />answering questions from both comission memberS and citizens. <br /> <br />Motion by A1 Sorteberg, seconded by Art Dunn to recommend to the City Council <br />to grant a conditional use permit to Mr. George Diemert III, to allow construction <br />of a solar greenhouse on his property located at 8221 - 151st Lane N.W. <br />subject to the following: <br />1.)

Mr. Sentryz <br />explained that he would like,to be able to do custom grading of each lot, and <br />receive site plan approval at the time a permit is requested. Art Dunn expressed <br />concern with several sites due to the slopes and sewer, and Mr. Sentryz stated <br />that this could be handled through terracing of the lot. Mr. Sentryz stated that <br />he did not want to disturb any more trees than necessary, and Mr. Dunn explained <br />that if a first system should fail, it would be very difficult to remove the nec- <br />essary trees later. Mr. Sentryz explained that this would be considered before <br />site approval would be asked for. Discussion of responsibility for Llama & <br />161st streets was again discussed and explained to the developer their earlier <br />recommendation in regards to this. <br /> <br />Motion by Gerry Zimmerman, seconded by Art Dunn to recommend to the City Council <br />to approve the preliminary pliat for Oakridge Estates subject to the following: <br />1.) variances be granted to ~llow the delay of site approval by building official <br /> until custom grading can-be done, and.tha~ site ~lan approva! be provided <br /> prior to issuance of buil!ding permit.
