E.I. Ordinance, EDC Comments <br />March 22, 1989 <br />Page 3 <br />DETAILED POINTS <br />Section 2. ARP licabilit <br />2.2.1 If a developer had a 100 acre (or a 2.1 acre) site <br />which he was splitting into lots of less than 2 acres, would <br />each individual lot be exempted? It seems to hang on what <br />constitutes a "project ", i.e. whether it is the parcel size <br />of the individual end product or the 11, arting size of the <br />parcel. The ordinance needs'to be clearer on this point. <br />2.1.2 and 2.1.3 What does "routine" mean? <br />Section 2.2. Environmental Assessment. <br />This layer is not needed. We believe most applications would <br />result in a FONSI. We will need extra professional staff to <br />review projects. (See point above regarding costs.) <br />Section 2.2 .3 Require SlAding in excess of 40,000 sn. feet, <br />etc. We believe 40,000 square feet is too small an area to <br />be the threshold. <br />Section 2.2.4 "and the like" - This is vague. Does it <br />include a farmer clearing land and grading for a pasture? <br />
