Mr. Granger was instructed to present proof of ownership at the City Council meeting. VOTING FOR: Peltier, Peloquin, Greger, Rosenquist, Gillen, and McAllister Motion carried. Grace Development - Minor Subdivision Mr. Harry Weaver presented the Commission with records of log borings and perc tests on Lots 1, 2, and 3. Mr. Kuusisto, City Engineer, also inspected the site on August 13, 1977, and submitted a written report. Mr. Kuusisto had suggested possible alternatives to a standard sewer system, but Mr. Schwab stated they would all involve a certain risk. A lengthy discussion ensued regarding the numerous engineering reports for the proposed subdivision. Gillen stated that he can find nothing to indicate that a system cannot work under the items dis- cussed by himself and Mr. Kuusisto. If you went back to Mr. Kuusisto's report, they are well within the limits. He stated that Kuusisto has given 99% of the same answers he had given to the Commission. McAllister stated that in all three engineering reports, he could not find a positive statement that a system could work. He went on record as stating the city does not accept that portion of the Braun Engineering Report stating that they city should accept responsibility of the system. Mr. Schwab could see only one solution and that would be'to split the three lofts into two, and fill the Lot 2 area. %2 t. -�� Cti � /b � � Motion made y i eltler, se oided by Greger;torecommend approval of the minor subdivision for Grace Development, subject to the following: 1.
