• minimum lot size in the SC zoning district is 3 acres. Under the PDO this provision would be waived. • Environmental Assessment Worksheet Based on the size of the proposed project, an Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) is mandatory. This process is designed to identify significant environmental effects that may require a more detailed environmental impact statement. Based upon Chapter 4410.3100 of the administrative rules governing environmental review, a project may not be started and a final governmental decision may not be made to grant a permit, approve a project or begin a project until a negative declaration on the need for an EIS is made. While a draft EAW document has been submitted, the document has not been processed through the City or Environmental Quality Board. There is a comment period currently in effect that runs until July 11, 2001. Until the process is complete and the City has determined that an EIS is not necessary the City should not take final action to approve the project.

Items that remain to be addressed before action can be recommended by staff include: 1. Completion of the EAW process. 2. Wetland fill and mitigation plans are approved by Rice Creek. 3. Revised layout of internal road system to address concerns expressed herein. 4. Completion of traffic study for off site impacts and related improvements. 5.
