19 <br /> 714 answer that's appropriate for the developer is the clearing plan for the road at the moment,and <br /> 715 then of course in that, since they've answered for,they'll be responsible for clearing for septic. <br /> 716 Septic clearance is not calculation in the land-disturbance calculations that go towards erosion <br /> 717 control and stormwater considerations. <br /> 718 <br /> 719 Liz Kalies: Okay. <br /> 720 <br /> 721 Cy Stober: And I don't want to answer a question that wasn't asked, but I thought I heard a question about the <br /> 722 difference between primary and secondary open space? Okay. Primary open space is generally, <br /> 723 it's identified by the county, and it's generally the most sensitive areas of the county's <br /> 724 environmental assets, so the 100-year and 500-year floodplains,the wetlands,the steep slopes, <br /> 725 which are slopes over 15 percent in grade, and then any areas that have been identified by the <br /> 726 county, in addition to the state,as having cultural or environmental value. So, there's a natural <br /> 727 heritage inventory dataset, but there's also cultural resources that Peter Sandbeck has identified <br /> 728 countywide that are within those resource protection areas and public interest areas that are on <br /> 729 properties. And those are generally the primary open space. Secondary open space includes <br /> 730 some recreational features, so that would include the trails,which there will need to be clearing for <br /> 731 those trails, I want to be clear about that, some minimal clearing unless there are already open, <br /> 732 cleared areas. But those are permitted as secondary open space. But also, less steep slopes,so <br /> 733 slopes between 8 and 15 percent, and then the riparian buffers are primary open space, but then <br /> 734 there's additional kind of natural features that are seen as secondary open space, but that's kind <br /> 735 of the broad overview. <br /> 736 <br /> 737 Lamar Proctor: And I think it would be helpful if we could put the site plan up on the monitors. I think that's part of <br /> 738 the slideshow, right? <br /> 739 <br /> 740 Beth Trahos: It is,yeah. <br /> 741 <br /> 742 Lamar Proctor: Just to get a visual for the board. <br /> 743 <br /> 744 Beth Trahos: Yes, and this is the same slideshow that we had for September 3rd. <br /> 745 <br /> 746 Lamar Proctor: Yeah. <br /> 747 <br /> 748 Beth Trahos: So,we can go to whatever pages you want to reference again, but this is it. Is that what you <br /> 749 wanted? <br /> 750 <br /> 751 Lamar Proctor: Yes. <br /> 752 <br /> 753 Beth Trahos: Okay. <br /> 754 <br /> 755 Lamar Proctor: All right, Liz, did you have any other questions for the applicant? <br /> 756 <br /> 757 Liz Kalies: No, I'm good. Thank you. <br /> 758 <br /> 759 Lamar Proctor: Okay. Do any other board members have any additional questions for the applicant? Beth, I see <br /> 760 you raising your hand. <br /> 761 <br /> 762 Beth Bronson: Yes. If anybody else would like to go, I'm more than welcome to wait. Thanks. And this may also <br /> 763 be well answered by with traffic. This is in relation to traffic. I want to thank you for the proposed <br /> 764 development entry egress, and then the updated notes on numbers dated September 27th, so this <br /> 765 would have been after our meeting. And you are, as you said, revised numbers about the daily <br /> 766 trips based on the bedrooms or the available cars. <br /> 767 <br /> 768 Charity Kirk: This isn't his document. <br />
