6.2 Request for direction regarding grading within ten feet of the property <br />line adjacent to the Vidovich project, Lands of Wise, 24301 Elise Court <br />Mike Wise, applicant, explained his request for direction concerning grading within <br />ten feet of the property line, allowing the import of approximately 6,000 cubic yards <br />of fill and not requiring the geology report to be submitted for the grading project. <br />He noted that his property is next to the quarry and quite a bit of grading had been <br />placed near his property but on the quarry land. His request was to fill and grade <br />over the lot line to achieve a smoother transition between the properties. In <br />addition Mr. Wise asked that he not be required to file a geologic report for this <br />project. <br />Council discussed this request and determined that this was a unique situation and <br />the finding for a variance to grade across the property line could no doubt be <br />established. However, they did point out that the LUF (lot unit factor) would <br />remain the same. On the subject of not requiring a geologic report, Council <br />determined that this could be left to the discretion of the City Engineer. It was <br />further noted that a statement could be put in file that this project had not been <br />reviewed by a geologist. <br />Mr. Wise thanked Council for their comments and direction on this matter. <br />7. REPORTS FROM COMMITTEES, SUB -COMMITTEES, AND <br />COUNCILMEMBERS ON OUTSIDE AGENCIES <br />7.1 Pathways Recreation and Parks Committee <br />7.1.1 Request for authorization to apply for a grant for a bike path <br />from Old Page Mill Road to Christopher's Lane <br />7.1.2 Bicycle Hazards and Mitigations -- Page Mill and 280 <br />Les Earnest, Chairman - Pathways Recreation and Parks Committee, referred to the <br />reports (on file at Town Hall) he had prepared for Council on the above issues. <br />These reports included detailed outlines of potential hazards in these areas and <br />proposed mitigations to address the problems. <br />The City Engineer noted the Town had not done any analysis on the <br />recommendations contained in these reports. He believed that there may be <br />some problems with the proposed solutions and suggested that the Council's <br />endorsement of these recommendations may be premature. <br />Council discussed the reports filed by the Pathways, Recreation and Parks <br />Committee and accepted them but did not acknowledge without additional <br />study and review the existence of hazards mentioned in the reports. <br />November 2, 1994 <br />
