Certificate of Survey will result in a single family home site which will reasonably conform to the neighborhood. Mr. Jankowski recommended the following conditions should be included in the mining and grading permit: 1) The applicant shall pay the cost associated with the patching of the pavement of Juniper Ridge Drive, where the pavement was broken up by the tractor hauling material to the site. This cost shall be agreed to be $250; and 2) The applicant agrees to grade the lot in Certificate of Survey, prepared by Charles F. Anderson and dated November 15, 1996; and 3) The applicant agrees to establish turf over all disturbed area by seeding or sod before June 1, 1997. Councilmember Haas Steffen recalled a resident or two getting up and speaking about the fill being placed and some concern about what the filling of this lot would do. She asked if these fears have been alleviated. Mr. Jankowski stated that this was discussed at the Planning Commission and he believed all had been resolved. Councilmember Haas Steffen stated that when she heard the fill had been placed before a permit had been taken out, she wondered if the City levies any type of fine for that. Mr. Schroeder stated that we have not in past circumstances. We have talked to a number of neighbors to find out measures that need to be taken with no negative impact to the neighborhood. Mayor Gamec stated that he had talked with the City Engineer about this same thing. He suggested if the Building Official or Inspector or members of the street crew see any digging, filling, etc., they should bring it to the attention of the City Engineer. Mr. Jankowski reiterated that the drainage had previously drained to a particular lot and a culvert that was supposed to be put in was never done. A temporary easement was placed over this lot until the drainage was addressed. In 1990, a new reservoir was created for that drainage. The area we had talked about is, after this is filled, what happens to the immediate neighbor to the south. For the most part, drainage would be virtually unchanged. The lowest part is actually on the neighbor's property.

Case #4: Request for Conditional Use Permit for Grading and Filling in Section 3; Case of John Peterson City Engineer Jankowski stated that this case deals with some mining that had gone on after the fact.
