MINUTES CITY COUNCIL APRIL 25, 1990 COUNTY ROAD D FROM ARCADE STREET TO 0.35 MILES EAST VIA PAVEMENT RECYCLING AND OVERLAY The foregoing resolution was duly seconded by Scalze. Ayes (5) Blesener, Scalze, Collova, Fahey, LaValle. Nays (0). Resolution declared adopted. CENTRE PLACE The City Engineer reported that a homeowner adjacent to the Centre Place improvement feels that the lots as being developed adjacent to his property are too high. Staff and some members of the Council looked at the site and came to the concensus that 2 to 4 feet of fill should be removed. The Engineer reported that he is currently working with the developer and his engineer on this issue, and there should be a response by early next week. At this time only the rough grading of the Centre Place site has been completed, and the Engineer anticipated that some corrective measures can be made. Fahey agreed that corrective measures were needed, pointing out the six foot increase in grade behind the Osland property on Iona Lane. Scalze was very disappointed that the Centre Place developers destroyed the existing trees on their site, Fahey stated that he would like to see 4 to 6 feet of fill removed behind the Osland and Pierce propertiese The City Engineer pointed out that to lower the site more than 4 feet will effect the roadway as well as other lots, and would cause the regrading of the entire development. The Engineer pointed out that there are some limitations involved. Fahey felt the City should push for the maximum while allowing the project to work. The Engineer pointed out that house pads are required at 18 inches to 2 feet above street grade. The developer overextended the placement of fill and the Engineer felt it to his benefit to reduce the fill on Lot 8. Mr. Blesener introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: Page 15
