3- Spitzer: In order to build a house on a tract of land, it is necessary to demonstrate an adequate per() test but that is not the only criteria , and Mr. Moe po int ed out t ha t t! e land t o the east i s a 1 rea dy zoned agricultural where ten acre building sites are allowed. It is reason- able to entertain requests of this type. Mr, Skimota : What has been discussed up to this time, is what is under the ground; but then there is the above ground situation. I would like to see bare minimum amount of homes. Spitzer: Is it your contention that there are possible reasons that the property in question should be retained as a conservancy district? Shimota: I didn't know the meaning of Conservancy until this meeting. g I am concerned about looking at additional houses traffic , etc. Spitzer: Do I understand that you don'trt ioularil object to Mr. Pa r � Moe's change from Conservancy to Agricultural but you are disturbed by the plat as shown because it shows plats s under ten acres? Shitta : Yes, .I feel it is critical that the natural resources by protected, Spitzer: If basically you want twenty acre sites, then you have to ask the council to change the law to read twenty acre sites instead of ten. Schwab: Whether we have nine lots to fit the land or 9 ten acre lots , which he can also get , but wont be as satisfactory either to the comm- unity or to the people who live there, nine houses will be built on the property whether they are built as the land best dictates or just to fill the requirements of the law. There are lots that are not ten acres but there are also lots that exceed ten acres . A requirement would have to be made, that these lots cannot be further sub-divided until suck time, the zoning law changes. Ms.Shimota : What are the natural resources wit are talking about? Spitzer: Surface water and water table.
