Y Mi. Kenneth D. Gervias October 10, 1983 page two i Johnston had .57 acres above the Meth flood he met all �ard setback requirements his home was!50 feet from the .lake and was con- structed above thei,minimrun building elevation his sewer system was the full 75 feet from the the high flood mark and his home had to be limited to two bedrooms by recorded agreement because the city was not confident the lot could support a larger sewer system It required Variances for: an exceptionito minimum lot size the setback of the home from the lake and permission to put his sewer system 10 feet from. an uninhabited part of the structure. Sinclair.had.84 acres of land but had frontage on both lakes DeMontrevill.e and Olsen which made it difficult to develop his lot. Fie needed Variance's for: Lot size Lot width -- he had just under 125 feet on the existing parcel of_irecord 74 foot setback from Lake DeMontreville and 54 foot setback from Lake Olsen backwater i for a slope of 2:1 on the lot where 6:1 slope required, as this actually improved the slope of the existing lot for the placement of fill below the normal ordi- nary high water mark for a dgi<veway access for a 10 foot setback of the drainfie'ld from the house His sewer system was at. least 75 feet from the lake. You can see that all of these lots had more land above the high flood mark than your Clot and all met the sewer setback require- ments from•the lake. All of the owners also signed agreements holding the City harmless for sewer system failure and agreeing to have them inspected each year for compliance with City standards. Two of the owners agreed to limit the homes to two bedrooms per recorded agreement. If I can be of any further assistance, please call. Very truly yours, , Laurence E.
