1 1 1 COUNCIL MEETING October 13, 1986 Page Seven 035 onto the lot in question accelerated the breaking of the street. The street was patched and approved by Mr. Volk. This street is on the long -range plan for overlay. The third concern is the elevation of the lot. Mr. Kluegel requested that the owner apply for a conditional use permit because of the amount of fill that was deposited on the lot. The application has been submitted along with detailed contours and proposed elevation as well as written explanations as to how the lot owner will keep storm water run -off from dumping onto the neighbor lots. City Engineer, Bob Toddie, has reviewed the proposal and has sub- mitted his comments and recommendations. Mr. Stahlberg further suggested that the ditch that crosses LaMotte Drive be cleaned and action be taken to control the run -off from a Centerville subdivision. He further suggested that the yard on the lot in question be constructed to match the neighbors yards so they can blend for a better appearance. Mr. Volk explained he has taken steps through Rice Creek Watershed District to control the run -off from Centerville. A proposal is being developed and should be in place yet this fall. Mr. Mastro asked that when the drainage easement is cleaned that the debris be removed so that he can continue to maintain it. Question from the audience - if you are planning a one- inchLoverlay on LaMotte Road, will this be assessed? Mayor Benson noted that an assessment policy had not been developed so this cannot be answered at this time. Mr. Mastro felt if the property owners are to be assessed, this would be unfair since Custom Contracting did the majority of the damage. Mayor Benson asked Mr. Volk if Custom Contractors repaired the street accordingly. Mr. Volk said it was repaired to at least or better than it previously was. Mr. McKosy said he took issue with this statement. He thought the road was in the best shape it has been in for the last five years. He wanted it to be brought up to the condition it was before Custom Contracting came in. Mr. Volk explained breakup was occurring before Custom Contracting came in and accelerated the breakup. However, the street has been patched. Mr. Nelson of Custom Con- tracting explained that the plans have been revised to set the garage further from the street thereby making the rise to the garage over a longer portion of the lot. He also explained some of the fill will be used on the lake side of the home and therefore the house will not set as high as it appears now. Mr. Marier moved to close the public hearing at 8:25 P.M. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
