031 DRAFT Minutes of the June 3, 1985 Board of Commissioners' Fleeting NOTE: Commissioner Norman Walker was absent. 0. T. FARRINGTON FAMILY LANDS - MINOR Planner Susan Smith presented for consideration of approval a Minor Subdivision with a Class A Private Road for the properties of Curtis Farrington, Tax Map 29, Lot 25 and 28 in Bingham Township. The applicant requested that the two lots be allowed to be subdivided utilizing the Class C road which presently exists. He indicated he would accept Class A but would not be able to pursue the construction' of a state maintained road. The Planning Staff recommended a state maintained road because of the number of lots and the nature of the road. The Planning Board recommended approval of a minor subdivision served by a Class A road. Dr. Gordon indicated there was a question of how much development may occur since each of the lots could be divided. The applicant requested the Planning Board's decision apply to all lots along Excel Lane. The Board voted on only lots 25 and 28. Commissioner Marshall noted that the potential for development is such that a public hearing should be provided for each request. Motion was made by Commissioner Marahnll, seconded by Chair Willhoit to approve the recommendation from the Planning Staff. VOTE: AYES, 2; NOES, 2 (Commissioners Carey and Lloyd). Motion was made by Commissioner Lloyd, seconded by Commissioner Carey to accept the recommendation from the Planning Board for a minor subdivision to be served by a Class A road. Commissioner Marshall noted that approving a Class A road for these two lots would put the County in an unattainable position for approving like requests. In answer to a question from Chair Willhoit, Susan Smith stated that because this road has never been recorded there would not be a mechanism for paving in the future unless the road was brought up to full state standards.
