Commissioner VanScoy inquired if these lots had City water and sewer. City Planner Anderson <br />explained these lots all had private well and septic. He provided further comment on another lot <br />within this neighborhood that required a variance. <br /> <br />Steve Nash, 14500 Bowers Drive, explained he purchased his property in 1989. He was not <br />aware of the deck situation when he purchased his property. He discussed how the proposed <br />notch would impact his property.

He then discussed the location of his well and septic system with respect to the notch. <br /> <br />Commissioner VanScoy questioned where the new well and septic system was located. Mr. Nash <br />reviewed his site plan with the Commission along with the well and septic system location. <br /> <br />Community Development Director Gladhill recommended that the Commission state within their <br />motion for approval that all State requirements regarding the placement of wells be followed. <br /> <br />Mark Madsen, 14520 Bowers Drive, reported he lives north of the subject property.
