_2- <br /> is i conservancy district? <br /> Spitzer: Generally, if the area has a surface water problem, but that <br /> is not the only criteria . <br /> Ehret : The zoning was done generally, based on property lines rather <br /> than following land contours. <br /> Moe : Twin City Soil Exploration Company has made five soil borings <br /> on that property to depths of 19 feet end at 19 feet there was no ev- <br /> idence of water at all. The character of the soil is clay in the low <br /> areas to clay-sand mixtures in the higher areas. The homes ices , them- <br /> selves, on the average, are at least thirteen feet above any water table. <br /> Mrs. Cammack: What happens when homes are continually built. Sooner <br /> or later, wont there have to be sewers? Too many homes mean sewers, <br /> paved roads, higher taxes, to all of us who moved out here to be in <br /> the country. <br /> Spitzer: It is generally the intention of the city g ov a rnment to main, <br /> tain the eastern portion of the city in an agricultural environment <br /> that is lots of 10 acres or larger. There are certain areas that be- <br /> cause of the terrain of the land, don't , in the best interest of the <br /> city, even meet the criteria for ten sore lots, these were zoned con- <br /> servancy. Again, it has been defined by the city that 10 sore home <br /> sites are the smallest allowed in agricultural zoning. It has not <br /> been the purpose of the city to encourage high density zoning in that <br /> area. Mrd. M0e has requested that the zoning be changed because he <br /> feels that because of the terrain on that piece of property y it should <br /> not have been zoned conservancy in the first place and he is asking <br /> to have it reviewed. <br /> M.Cammack: Is proof of an adequate per() test the only requirement <br /> Mr. Moe must meet? <br />
