This item was heard at the May 26, 2015 quarterly public 159 <br />hearing. 160 <br /> 161 <br /> Presenter: Michael Harvey, Current Planning Supervisor 162 <br /> 163 <br />Michael Harvey: Reviewed abstract. 164 <br /> 165 <br />Paul Guthrie: Is it a common sewage disposal system or individual? 166 <br /> 167 <br />Michael Harvey: Common septic system with about 6 acres devoted to supporting a septic area. 168 <br /> 169 <br />Paul Guthrie: They need to carefully structure the ownership model as to who is responsible. 170 <br /> 171 <br />Buddy Hartley: If this is done like condominiums, the sewer is basically handled by the state, permitted, it 172 <br />could be checked, they should have an association which pays homeowners dues that takes care of the 173 <br />streets, etc. 174 <br /> 175 <br />Michael Harvey: I am asking you for questions or comments in the next couple of weeks, email me by July 176 <br />17, 2015.

If they are engaging in an activity otherwise, they would have to go through the appropriate 183 <br />review and approval process. 184 <br /> 185 <br />Maxecine Mitchell: I want to encourage us to not to knock against it. It is really neat. I was hearing all the 186 <br />concerns. I was thinking about neighborhoods. Let’s embrace them and help them out. 187 <br /> 188 <br />Tony Blake: I agree, but this is a hybrid between a condominium and farm. There are different rules. 189 <br /> 190 <br />Pete Hallenbeck: Everyone is for this. Whatever they do, since they are creating their own zoning district, 191 <br />so whatever they do, they have to go back and modify that. 192 <br /> 193 <br />Buddy Hartley: Would there be any private security? 194 <br /> 195 <br />Michael Harvey: Here is my list of additional questions for the applicant. You would like to see the 196 <br />promotional materials and have a better understanding of how they are marketing this vision, this board 197 <br />would like the applicant to consider the future and additional uses they may want to include, request for a 198 <br />12
