Little Canada Planning Commission 7 July 1983 Page Two A complication does, however, exist relative to the situation at hand. At present, a sanitary sewer line bisects a portion of the proposed building expansion area (see Attachments B and C). Based upon initial review of this problem, it does appear that elevations and flow direction would allow reloca- tion of the sewer line. Another, although less desirable, alternative would be the possible location of the expanded building over the line. This matter therefore is a technical as well as economic question. For the time being and as part of the request presently before the City on the variance, it is suggested that conditions be imposed for protection and /or alteration of the line. RECOMMENDATION Based upon the fact that the Market Place Shopping Center has had long term plans for building expansion and in our opinion these have been limited by subsequent City actions, it is our recommendation that the property owner be given a side yard setback variance which would permit construction up to the lot line on that portion of land which directly abuts the Senior Citizens Housing Project. This variance should, however, be contingent upon a resolu- tion of either relocating or building over the existing sanitary sewer line as determined as acceptable by the City Engineer. 48
