| and whether you're OK with that please. | 00:02:10 | |
| Sorry to make you come up here briefly. | 00:02:14 | |
| Auto start zone. | 00:02:17 | |
| Brad Reinhart with Premier and associates here on behalf of Johnny Copeless for this item and we are happy to. | 00:02:20 | |
| Present both at the same time. | 00:02:25 | |
| Perfect. Thank you. There will be a vote separate two different ballots, but you can hear them together. | 00:02:26 | |
| All right, agenda item 1. | 00:02:34 | |
| Docket #FC52625. Petitioner, Johnny and Lisa Koopas. | 00:02:37 | |
| Representative. | 00:02:42 | |
| Prumair Engineering. | 00:02:46 | |
| Location, 5657 W Luther Rd. Floyds Knobs. | 00:02:47 | |
| Requests for administrative subdivision replay in the zoning district is residential, suburban, and again, there is not sewer on | 00:02:51 | |
| the site, so the standards tend to go back to. | 00:02:56 | |
| Rural residential. | 00:03:01 | |
| With the overview of the petitioners requesting an administrative subdivision replant of the Shaw Ridge Administrative subdivision | 00:03:03 | |
| to put. | 00:03:06 | |
| To split lot 203 into two lots. | 00:03:09 | |
| Staff finds that the technical standards are met. | 00:03:12 | |
| The platter submitted does comply with the lot size standards because the lot dimensions adhere to the development standards of | 00:03:14 | |
| the Rs zoning district. | 00:03:18 | |
| Which follows the RR standards when sewer is not present. Minimum lock size 37,000 square feet. | 00:03:21 | |
| Minimum lot width 100 feet. Minimum lot frontage 100 feet. | 00:03:27 | |
| The Plat has submitted does comply with the street design standards because no new streets are being created. | 00:03:31 | |
| The Platy submitted does comply with the easement standards because access will be through public road or private access easement. | 00:03:36 | |
| The plat has submitted does not comply with the block standards because. | 00:03:44 | |
| A modification to allow a separate driveway is submitted that would allow this to comply. | 00:03:47 | |
| The plat has submitted. | 00:03:52 | |
| Uh, it's. | 00:03:55 | |
| Doesn't does provide St. improvements as required by ordinance because no new streets are being created. | 00:03:58 | |
| The plat has submitted. | 00:04:04 | |
| Does comply with water supply standards because a letter of intent to serve is provided by the Fluids Knobs Water Company. | 00:04:05 | |
| The plot is submitted. Is suitable for. | 00:04:11 | |
| Or sorry is not suit. | 00:04:14 | |
| Is suitable for your sewage and wastewater containment because the Floyd County Health Department has submitted a letter of no | 00:04:16 | |
| objection for septic. | 00:04:19 | |
| Site and then over to the. | 00:04:22 | |
| Second agenda item. | 00:04:26 | |
| For the overview, the petitioner is requesting A modification for an administrative subdivision replat of the Shaw Ridge | 00:04:28 | |
| Administrative Subdivision to provide a second driveway with its own Rd. connection rather than shared driveway per Article 3, | 00:04:32 | |
| Section 4B. | 00:04:36 | |
| Of that subdivision control ordinance. | 00:04:41 | |
| For the applicant justifications, the variance modification will not be detrimental to the public's health, safety, urgent welfare | 00:04:43 | |
| because the proposed driveway will comply with all applicable sight, distance, drainage and construction standards required by | 00:04:48 | |
| Floyd County and any applicable roadway authority. | 00:04:52 | |
| #2 The variance modification will not adversely affect adjacent property because nearby residential properties along the roadway | 00:04:57 | |
| and within the surrounding area commonly utilize individual driveway access. | 00:05:02 | |
| Granting this request would therefore remain compatible with the established character and development pattern of the area. | 00:05:07 | |
| The variance #3 The variance modification is justified because of exceptional topography. | 00:05:13 | |
| Topographical. | 00:05:18 | |
| Or other physical conditions unique to the property involved and is not to correct mere inconvenience or financial disadvantage | 00:05:19 | |
| because. | 00:05:23 | |
| This will create an unnecessary practical difficulty due to the specific layout and conditions a lot. | 00:05:26 | |
| For, the conditions upon which the variance modification request is based are unique to the property. | 00:05:31 | |
| For which the relief is sought and not applicable generally to other property because due to the configuration, topography, | 00:05:36 | |
| drainage, grading and or existing improvements on the. | 00:05:40 | |
| Property. A shared driveway arrangement is impractical and would create operational difficulties for both property owners. A | 00:05:44 | |
| separate driveway would. | 00:05:47 | |
| Provide safer and more functional access to the residents. | 00:05:51 | |
| Or five, The variance modification is consistent with the intent and purpose of this ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan because | 00:05:53 | |
| the proposed driveway will serve only a single residential lot. | 00:05:57 | |
| And will generate minimal traffic. | 00:06:02 | |
| The requested modification presents the minimal relief necessary to allow reasonable residential use of the property. | 00:06:04 | |
| The condition. | 00:06:10 | |
| Yes, sorry, necessitating the variance modification was not created by the owner or applicant because due to existing improvements | 00:06:11 | |
| on the property. | 00:06:15 | |
| A shared driveway arrangement is impractical and would create operational difficulties for both property owners. | 00:06:19 | |
| Or 7. The relief sought will not in any way vary the provisions of the zoning ordinance because. | 00:06:24 | |
| The proposed driveway will comply with all applicable sight, distance, drainage and construction standards required by Floyd | 00:06:28 | |
| County and any applicable roadway authority. | 00:06:32 | |
| For staff comments. | 00:06:35 | |
| The general intent behind access management through a shared access easement is twofold. Firstly, this can improve traffic flow | 00:06:37 | |
| and reduce collision risks and secondly, the shared access easement is to be suitable as a future public St. should development | 00:06:41 | |
| occur in the future. | 00:06:45 | |
| Regarding access management, the county engineer indicated that there would be no problem with an additional drive in this | 00:06:50 | |
| location. | 00:06:53 | |
| Regarding future use as a public St. | 00:06:56 | |
| This parcel and the surrounding properties are zoned Rs and until they get sewer access, must utilize the RR development | 00:06:58 | |
| standards. | 00:07:01 | |
| As such, this area is unlikely to see additional development within the administrative plat. | 00:07:04 | |
| Until sewer access is available. | 00:07:08 | |
| And even then, only if the current residents decide to sell. | 00:07:10 | |
| The neighboring properties on West Luther Rd. have not adhered to the standard of the subdivision control ordinance. | 00:07:14 | |
| So that this section of the road has several driveways and no subdivision roads. | 00:07:19 | |
| The law furniture apartments are still met and West Luther Rd. is currently being used as if. | 00:07:23 | |
| It were a subdivision Rd. by 13 other access points for houses between Old Benson's Road and Chimney Wood Drive. | 00:07:28 | |
| The topography of the property does have a slope of roughly 8% per eagle view. | 00:07:33 | |
| Which is a software that we use in. | 00:07:38 | |
| Our office, while the maximum slope for a subdivision Rd. is at 10%, offering a similar unique aspect. | 00:07:40 | |
| Of this property. | 00:07:45 | |
| As such, staff finds that approval of this modification can be justified. | 00:07:46 | |
| And then I'd like to. | 00:07:50 | |
| Depth through here, so here's the site in question. | 00:07:52 | |
| Here is the site plan. | 00:07:57 | |
| And that is 100 foot of Rd. frontage at the front as updated. | 00:08:00 | |
| And that goes back at least the 60 foot for the. | 00:08:04 | |
| Front yard set back. | 00:08:07 | |
| Here's a view of the existing driveway from West Luther Rd. | 00:08:10 | |
| And then here's another angle of that. | 00:08:15 | |
| And that's what I've got for you. | 00:08:18 | |
| You done? | 00:08:21 | |
| All right. Thank you. | 00:08:22 | |
| Any questions for Frank? | 00:08:25 | |
| Anybody. Yes. | 00:08:26 | |
| All right. Thank you. | 00:08:29 | |
| Alrighty, at this time the applicant. | 00:08:30 | |
| Sorry. Sorry that this is not an opportunity for the public to speak. OK. The board is asking if they have any questions for. | 00:08:32 | |
| The staff, so just kind of run through the process. The staff gives their report. | 00:08:41 | |
| The chair of the board. | 00:08:45 | |
| Mr. Unruh will then allow the applicant to come up and go through their application and what they are asking this board to do. | 00:08:47 | |
| Thereafter, the board will ask for public comment. Those in favor, those in opposition that time will be called out. You'll have | 00:08:55 | |
| an opportunity to come up, state your name and present to the board what your comments are. The board will then consider those in | 00:09:00 | |
| making a decision after. | 00:09:05 | |
| The public. | 00:09:10 | |
| Has an opportunity to speak. | 00:09:11 | |
| Any questions from the board for me, we're good. | 00:09:13 | |
| All right, this time the applicant come forward and present your. | 00:09:15 | |
| Agendas. | 00:09:19 | |
| Brad Reinhart, Not just halfway here again. | 00:09:24 | |
| For Johnny Coppolas for this administrative plat. | 00:09:27 | |
| Yep, we're asking for the modification and this replat to the show Section 2 initiative plots as. | 00:09:31 | |
| Frank went over. | 00:09:39 | |
| Umm, because it's a slipping done after and. | 00:09:40 | |
| Initial home was put on the original locks. We think that that along with the slope like he said, kind of. | 00:09:43 | |
| What's our necessity for this modification for the two driveways in both houses rebuilt at the same time? They might have been | 00:09:48 | |
| able to do the driveways combined more easily because this has been here for some time. | 00:09:54 | |
| The initial approved is to make that somewhat difficult with the current layout of the house. | 00:10:00 | |
| So that's why we're asking for the modification. | 00:10:04 | |
| If you have any questions on the development already. | 00:10:06 | |
| Any questions? | 00:10:09 | |
| Pretty straightforward. Thank you, Sir. | 00:10:10 | |
| Appreciate that. | 00:10:12 | |
| OK, at this time we'd like to open up. | 00:10:13 | |
| The session for anybody like to speak in favor. | 00:10:16 | |
| Of this project, please come forward, state your name and address for the record. | 00:10:19 | |
| Seeing that there's nobody. | 00:10:25 | |
| Coming up. | 00:10:26 | |
| We'll close that section and open up the. | 00:10:27 | |
| Anybody would like to speak in opposition? | 00:10:30 | |
| Of this project, please come forward. | 00:10:32 | |
| State your name and address for the record. | 00:10:35 | |
| Barbara, 58. | 00:10:45 | |
| I'm really not opposed, I would just like to know. | 00:10:47 | |
| He applied for. | 00:10:51 | |
| Variance instead of small subdivision under 5 homes. | 00:10:52 | |
| Which of the houses along Luther Rd. are? | 00:10:56 | |
| Considered in this subdivision, it was my understanding they all work, which is more. | 00:10:58 | |
| 5. | 00:11:02 | |
| I I'm not going to be able to answer that, but I will get you an answer for that when you get done for it. | 00:11:05 | |
| Frank, you want to try to address that? | 00:11:09 | |
| I wasn't. I got distracted by the. | 00:11:12 | |
| Uh, audio question? | 00:11:14 | |
| That small subdivision. | 00:11:18 | |
| Less than five homes. | 00:11:20 | |
| Are considered as. | 00:11:24 | |
| There's. | 00:11:27 | |
| What's that? How many years ago? Years. | 00:11:36 | |
| Miles back on. | 00:11:41 | |
| But at this time, it's just the one that's being. | 00:11:43 | |
| So. | 00:11:48 | |
| Anything. | 00:11:49 | |
| Well, it said five homes or less for a small subdivision, so that's each time that there's a slope. | 00:11:50 | |
| That's the classification of what they applied for. They could have 5. | 00:11:56 | |
| Or less. | 00:12:00 | |
| And all they're doing is splitting it. | 00:12:01 | |
| So it doesn't matter the other homes that are in the Charid subdivision, I thought it was the whole subdivision had to be 5 or | 00:12:02 | |
| less. It does based on like a time requirement sort of it's five years, I think if I'm not mistaken. You can, you can, you can | 00:12:07 | |
| apply. | 00:12:11 | |
| And please correct me if I'm wrong. | 00:12:16 | |
| Every five years you can you can divide. | 00:12:19 | |
| Administrative subdivision again if you want to after five years. | 00:12:23 | |
| Yeah. And then the road frontage is 100 foot, but then there's a little cut in in the picture. | 00:12:26 | |
| So is the lot going to be 100 foot all the way back or just at the road frontage? | 00:12:32 | |
| Can you put the? | 00:12:37 | |
| Plant back up there. | 00:12:38 | |
| So. So we do. | 00:12:43 | |
| Our lot width requirements are that it be measured at the front yard set back right. | 00:12:46 | |
| So if it tapers off towards the back. | 00:12:52 | |
| That's fine according to our zoning ordinance or subdivision control ordinances. | 00:12:55 | |
| That width has to be met up to so at the. | 00:13:00 | |
| Road frontage and then also the width is measured at the front yard set back, so that's the 60 foot back. | 00:13:03 | |
| And so it starts to taper off afterwards. | 00:13:09 | |
| From there, but that's. | 00:13:11 | |
| Uh, that does mean what we're. | 00:13:12 | |
| What it's supposed to mean? | 00:13:14 | |
| OK. Thank you, Barbara. | 00:13:16 | |
| Anybody else? | 00:13:19 | |
| Just state your name and your address for the record please. | 00:13:22 | |
| My name is Anita Kelly at 5831 W Luther. | 00:13:27 | |
| And originally Shawbridge was supposed to be on Vincent's and Luther Rd. | 00:13:31 | |
| All those homes that Johnny built were supposed to be. | 00:13:37 | |
| Shaw Ridge and then. | 00:13:40 | |
| Last I knew, when he was getting ready to build the last two on Vincennes or whatever. | 00:13:42 | |
| He took. | 00:13:47 | |
| His first house out of Shaw Ridge. | 00:13:47 | |
| And he took his new house out of saw where John Luther. | 00:13:50 | |
| So we live. | 00:13:53 | |
| Supposedly Shaw Ridge and we don't even know. | 00:13:55 | |
| What Shaw Ridge is anymore? | 00:13:57 | |
| Because we just found out that. | 00:13:59 | |
| The land behind us. | 00:14:02 | |
| Used to be a strip that Johnny owned. | 00:14:05 | |
| And. | 00:14:07 | |
| He at some point deeded it. | 00:14:09 | |
| To the people behind us. | 00:14:10 | |
| Like a year or two years ago, he said. Two years and then the. | 00:14:13 | |
| Somebody told me that the county told him. | 00:14:16 | |
| One year ago. | 00:14:19 | |
| So that was a surprise when the stakes went in because we've taken care of it for 20 years. | 00:14:20 | |
| You know the bottom land of our property goes down. | 00:14:25 | |
| And. | 00:14:29 | |
| We've just been taking care for 20 years, so we don't know what is really Shaw Ridge and what isn't Shawl. | 00:14:29 | |
| So we're all confused, I think. | 00:14:35 | |
| So and we were told. | 00:14:38 | |
| Supposedly that papers went out when he agreed. | 00:14:40 | |
| Design behind us A year ago we and none of us got papers. | 00:14:45 | |
| On it. So like I said. | 00:14:49 | |
| Already and I would like to know what is Shaw Ridge? Is it just the Luther Rd. Homes? | 00:14:55 | |
| Or is it the Vincent? | 00:15:00 | |
| And. | 00:15:01 | |
| And how? How did he just all of a sudden slip some more houses out of Shaw Ridge? And why? | 00:15:04 | |
| Why are we being penalized or is it good thing or is it a bad thing that we're installing? | 00:15:10 | |
| And how does it, how does it affect you? So it's just, I can just understand how does this affect you? | 00:15:14 | |
| This new home going in? Yes, ma'am. | 00:15:19 | |
| Well, there's. | 00:15:21 | |
| Now lateral lines that are come home behind the two homes inside us. Barbara, right, and Darren lived to the left of us, right. | 00:15:23 | |
| So that's going to come up all the way up to where our property ends basically. I mean, if you have problems with it. | 00:15:31 | |
| Well. | 00:15:36 | |
| Right. Well, the. | 00:15:38 | |
| Barbara, you have to sit back down. I'm sorry. I. | 00:15:41 | |
| That's that's our protocol. You can't come back up. I'm very sorry. | 00:15:44 | |
| That's so close to the laterals being put there, although if they aren't maintained and smell, you know. | 00:15:48 | |
| That's going to be right here. Is your house on? Is your house on septic? | 00:15:54 | |
| Yawn yawn. Septic. | 00:15:58 | |
| OK. All right. | 00:15:59 | |
| But that health department is pretty strict these days, I can tell you. | 00:16:01 | |
| Not only that. | 00:16:04 | |
| I wanted to state that there is a spring on that lot that we all enjoy, that it comes down. | 00:16:06 | |
| At the bottom land of our property. I'm in Edgar's the wildlife then. | 00:16:11 | |
| And supposedly he's going to put. | 00:16:15 | |
| He's running the lateral lines. | 00:16:17 | |
| Off that property, basically back behind the next two houses. | 00:16:19 | |
| And is the house in any of the other lateral lines than A? | 00:16:24 | |
| Leading to the spring I'm there. | 00:16:29 | |
| I wouldn't think the health department would allow that, but we'll ask. We'll ask the Brad when he comes back up to see if we can | 00:16:31 | |
| get you some answers. | 00:16:34 | |
| Go ahead, Frank. | 00:16:37 | |
| Go, go ahead. I had one thing just to add to your question on Shaw Ridge. You know what? | 00:16:39 | |
| Annetta, is it Annetta, Annetta. Annetta Annette, Is that what I'm saying? | 00:16:44 | |
| Nada, ma'am. | 00:16:49 | |
| Could you come back up here just really quickly? | 00:16:51 | |
| Yeah. | 00:16:54 | |
| Just Shaw Ridge, I believe this is. I don't have it. | 00:16:55 | |
| Really fresh in my mind, but I believe there's two sections to Shawl Ridge. | 00:16:59 | |
| The first section came about down. | 00:17:02 | |
| Down Luther that's been there a while and then they planted a separate section a Section 2. | 00:17:04 | |
| Which came about more recently. | 00:17:10 | |
| And that's what we're talking about Section 2. So I believe you live in Section 1, so I don't. | 00:17:12 | |
| I think Section 1 is staying exactly how it's always been. | 00:17:16 | |
| How can you be talking about Section 2 when Section 1 is where Johnny lives right now, right down the road from us? | 00:17:19 | |
| Yeah. | 00:17:27 | |
| Go back behind, you know, those two people. And that's what I'm, I'm confused because the people behind us were part of Shaw | 00:17:29 | |
| Ridge. | 00:17:33 | |
| And then he's all of a sudden deeds this. | 00:17:37 | |
| Whatever. And if they're not in part, Shaw Ridge anymore. | 00:17:39 | |
| I mean, are they allowed to have like farm animals and all this stuff if they're not part of, you know. | 00:17:42 | |
| Well, I don't know all the restrictions, but the good news for you the the health department, I mean, they're they're pretty | 00:17:47 | |
| ********. So I mean, they're going to. | 00:17:50 | |
| You know they're not going to just allow. | 00:17:54 | |
| Just lateral lines just to drain raw into. | 00:17:55 | |
| You know, just. | 00:17:58 | |
| Out there so. | 00:17:59 | |
| They're going to definitely do their due diligence and. | 00:18:01 | |
| You know the septic installer. | 00:18:03 | |
| You know, Johnny has built a lot of homes and he's. | 00:18:05 | |
| You know, done a lot of. | 00:18:07 | |
| Business with. | 00:18:08 | |
| With reputable. | 00:18:09 | |
| Contractors. So I would imagine that. | 00:18:11 | |
| You know whoever's doing that. | 00:18:13 | |
| The septic whoever's doing the, you know, the health department checks. | 00:18:14 | |
| It it'll be solid. | 00:18:19 | |
| Hope so, because you know that spring. | 00:18:21 | |
| Right behind us. | 00:18:24 | |
| Thank you. Thank you. | 00:18:25 | |
| OK. | 00:18:27 | |
| OK, go ahead, Frank. | 00:18:29 | |
| Just a quick point of clarification. Yes, Sir, this is this is Section 2 that we pulled up here. This is the Plat 1537. | 00:18:30 | |
| There was a previous Section 1 for Shawbridge. | 00:18:38 | |
| Uh, this contains the area that is going to be split. | 00:18:41 | |
| It doesn't look quite the same as what is being split because a portion of it. | 00:18:45 | |
| Was deeded over to one of the southern properties in what I think was an exempt subdivision. | 00:18:49 | |
| I don't have the details right in front of me at the moment. | 00:18:54 | |
| I think that's what occurred. It comes like a year or two ago. | 00:18:56 | |
| And so if I'm correct in that it was an exempt subdivision, that wouldn't have been something that would have gone before the | 00:19:00 | |
| board and there wouldn't have been. | 00:19:04 | |
| Right. Gotcha. | 00:19:07 | |
| Ma'am and I'll. | 00:19:10 | |
| Ma'am, please respect our protocol if you will. | 00:19:13 | |
| But to provide some extra context of the exempt it's an interior lot that's changing. | 00:19:18 | |
| It's not creating a new lot. | 00:19:22 | |
| Right. | 00:19:24 | |
| OK. | 00:19:24 | |
| Mr. Brad. | 00:19:25 | |
| Do you have it? | 00:19:27 | |
| Pretty well down what you need to address. | 00:19:28 | |
| In your mind. | 00:19:31 | |
| Let's see what we can do. Aye, As far as septic. | 00:19:33 | |
| They'll work with the health board. | 00:19:35 | |
| Then we've been septic on. | 00:19:37 | |
| Almost every lot out here will be. | 00:19:39 | |
| Following that protocol for all of these. | 00:19:41 | |
| Going forward. | 00:19:43 | |
| Especially on this new lot, as far as the timeline of some of these splits. | 00:19:44 | |
| So I believe the locks they're talking about their own are Section 1, which you can kind of see on this map we've got pulled up | 00:19:48 | |
| there is kind of. | 00:19:51 | |
| On the page to the northwest of John's big Lot 203 there. | 00:19:54 | |
| And then if you'll. | 00:19:59 | |
| He came back to the current plat. | 00:20:01 | |
| The one you're playing for. You can see there the triangle on the left hand side of the page. | 00:20:05 | |
| John took a portion of his lot 203 and then. | 00:20:11 | |
| Sold it to. | 00:20:14 | |
| Someone who had lot 201 right in there so just. | 00:20:16 | |
| Took from one platform yeah I just. | 00:20:20 | |
| Stayed within the subdivision, right. It stays within the subdivision. Yes, that and that happened a few years ago. Looks like | 00:20:21 | |
| this was reported earlier this year, but I'm not sure exactly that's that sale happened. | 00:20:26 | |
| So we are doing. | 00:20:33 | |
| 100 foot at the front set back line. | 00:20:35 | |
| Coming back to its 80 feet after that little kickback there. So it'll be 80 feet all the way back to the bid and the property. | 00:20:37 | |
| And you're looking to put the. | 00:20:42 | |
| The septic field back there around I think where the bend is going to be. | 00:20:43 | |
| And their whole work with the health department on all that, all points going forward. | 00:20:46 | |
| Anybody any questions for Brad? | 00:20:51 | |
| No, sorry. It's not public Question Time. I'm sorry. The board is the only one that's allowed to speak with him at this point. | 00:20:55 | |
| Does anybody on the board have a question for Brad? | 00:20:59 | |
| No. | 00:21:09 | |
| All right. Thank you. I'm looking for a ballot. | 00:21:10 | |

| And construction standards required by Floyd County. | 00:23:59 | |

| With the overview of the petitioners requesting an administrative subdivision replant of the Shaw Ridge Administrative subdivision | 00:03:03 | |
| to put. | 00:03:06 | |
| To split lot 203 into two lots. | 00:03:09 | |
| Staff finds that the technical standards are met. | 00:03:12 | |
| The platter submitted does comply with the lot size standards because the lot dimensions adhere to the development standards of | 00:03:14 | |
| the Rs zoning district. | 00:03:18 | |
| Which follows the RR standards when sewer is not present. Minimum lock size 37,000 square feet. | 00:03:21 | |

| The Platy submitted does comply with the easement standards because access will be through public road or private access easement. | 00:03:36 | |

| The plat has submitted. | 00:03:52 | |

| objection for septic. | 00:04:19 | |
| Site and then over to the. | 00:04:22 | |
| Second agenda item. | 00:04:26 | |
| For the overview, the petitioner is requesting A modification for an administrative subdivision replat of the Shaw Ridge | 00:04:28 | |
| Administrative Subdivision to provide a second driveway with its own Rd. connection rather than shared driveway per Article 3, | 00:04:32 | |
| Section 4B. | 00:04:36 | |
| Of that subdivision control ordinance. | 00:04:41 | |
| For the applicant justifications, the variance modification will not be detrimental to the public's health, safety, urgent welfare | 00:04:43 | |
| because the proposed driveway will comply with all applicable sight, distance, drainage and construction standards required by | 00:04:48 | |
| Floyd County and any applicable roadway authority. | 00:04:52 | |
| #2 The variance modification will not adversely affect adjacent property because nearby residential properties along the roadway | 00:04:57 | |
| and within the surrounding area commonly utilize individual driveway access. | 00:05:02 | |
| Granting this request would therefore remain compatible with the established character and development pattern of the area. | 00:05:07 | |
| The variance #3 The variance modification is justified because of exceptional topography. | 00:05:13 | |
| Topographical. | 00:05:18 | |
| Or other physical conditions unique to the property involved and is not to correct mere inconvenience or financial disadvantage | 00:05:19 | |
| because. | 00:05:23 | |
| This will create an unnecessary practical difficulty due to the specific layout and conditions a lot. | 00:05:26 | |
| For, the conditions upon which the variance modification request is based are unique to the property. | 00:05:31 | |
| For which the relief is sought and not applicable generally to other property because due to the configuration, topography, | 00:05:36 | |
| drainage, grading and or existing improvements on the. | 00:05:40 | |
| Property. A shared driveway arrangement is impractical and would create operational difficulties for both property owners. A | 00:05:44 | |
| separate driveway would. | 00:05:47 | |
| Provide safer and more functional access to the residents. | 00:05:51 | |
| Or five, The variance modification is consistent with the intent and purpose of this ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan because | 00:05:53 | |
| the proposed driveway will serve only a single residential lot. | 00:05:57 | |
| And will generate minimal traffic. | 00:06:02 | |
| The requested modification presents the minimal relief necessary to allow reasonable residential use of the property. | 00:06:04 | |
| The condition. | 00:06:10 | |
| Yes, sorry, necessitating the variance modification was not created by the owner or applicant because due to existing improvements | 00:06:11 | |
| on the property. | 00:06:15 | |
| A shared driveway arrangement is impractical and would create operational difficulties for both property owners. | 00:06:19 | |
| Or 7. The relief sought will not in any way vary the provisions of the zoning ordinance because. | 00:06:24 | |
| The proposed driveway will comply with all applicable sight, distance, drainage and construction standards required by Floyd | 00:06:28 | |
| County and any applicable roadway authority. | 00:06:32 | |
| For staff comments. | 00:06:35 | |
| The general intent behind access management through a shared access easement is twofold. Firstly, this can improve traffic flow | 00:06:37 | |
| and reduce collision risks and secondly, the shared access easement is to be suitable as a future public St. should development | 00:06:41 | |
| occur in the future. | 00:06:45 | |
| Regarding access management, the county engineer indicated that there would be no problem with an additional drive in this | 00:06:50 | |
| location. | 00:06:53 | |
| Regarding future use as a public St. | 00:06:56 | |
| This parcel and the surrounding properties are zoned Rs and until they get sewer access, must utilize the RR development | 00:06:58 | |
| standards. | 00:07:01 | |
| As such, this area is unlikely to see additional development within the administrative plat. | 00:07:04 | |
| Until sewer access is available. | 00:07:08 | |
| And even then, only if the current residents decide to sell. | 00:07:10 | |
| The neighboring properties on West Luther Rd. have not adhered to the standard of the subdivision control ordinance. | 00:07:14 | |
| So that this section of the road has several driveways and no subdivision roads. | 00:07:19 | |
| The law furniture apartments are still met and West Luther Rd. is currently being used as if. | 00:07:23 | |
| It were a subdivision Rd. by 13 other access points for houses between Old Benson's Road and Chimney Wood Drive. | 00:07:28 | |
| The topography of the property does have a slope of roughly 8% per eagle view. | 00:07:33 | |
| Which is a software that we use in. | 00:07:38 | |
| Our office, while the maximum slope for a subdivision Rd. is at 10%, offering a similar unique aspect. | 00:07:40 | |
| Of this property. | 00:07:45 | |
| As such, staff finds that approval of this modification can be justified. | 00:07:46 | |
| And then I'd like to. | 00:07:50 | |
| Depth through here, so here's the site in question. | 00:07:52 | |
| Here is the site plan. | 00:07:57 | |
| And that is 100 foot of Rd. frontage at the front as updated. | 00:08:00 | |
| And that goes back at least the 60 foot for the. | 00:08:04 | |
| Front yard set back. | 00:08:07 | |
| Here's a view of the existing driveway from West Luther Rd. | 00:08:10 | |
| And then here's another angle of that. | 00:08:15 | |
| And that's what I've got for you. | 00:08:18 | |
| You done? | 00:08:21 | |
| All right. Thank you. | 00:08:22 | |
| Any questions for Frank? | 00:08:25 | |
| Anybody. Yes. | 00:08:26 | |
| All right. Thank you. | 00:08:29 | |
| Alrighty, at this time the applicant. | 00:08:30 | |
| Sorry. Sorry that this is not an opportunity for the public to speak. OK. The board is asking if they have any questions for. | 00:08:32 | |
| The staff, so just kind of run through the process. The staff gives their report. | 00:08:41 | |
| The chair of the board. | 00:08:45 | |
| Mr. Unruh will then allow the applicant to come up and go through their application and what they are asking this board to do. | 00:08:47 | |
| Thereafter, the board will ask for public comment. Those in favor, those in opposition that time will be called out. You'll have | 00:08:55 | |
| an opportunity to come up, state your name and present to the board what your comments are. The board will then consider those in | 00:09:00 | |
| making a decision after. | 00:09:05 | |
| The public. | 00:09:10 | |
| Has an opportunity to speak. | 00:09:11 | |
| Any questions from the board for me, we're good. | 00:09:13 | |
| All right, this time the applicant come forward and present your. | 00:09:15 | |
| Agendas. | 00:09:19 | |
| Brad Reinhart, Not just halfway here again. | 00:09:24 | |
| For Johnny Coppolas for this administrative plat. | 00:09:27 | |
| Yep, we're asking for the modification and this replat to the show Section 2 initiative plots as. | 00:09:31 | |
| Frank went over. | 00:09:39 | |
| Umm, because it's a slipping done after and. | 00:09:40 | |
| Initial home was put on the original locks. We think that that along with the slope like he said, kind of. | 00:09:43 | |
| What's our necessity for this modification for the two driveways in both houses rebuilt at the same time? They might have been | 00:09:48 | |
| able to do the driveways combined more easily because this has been here for some time. | 00:09:54 | |
| The initial approved is to make that somewhat difficult with the current layout of the house. | 00:10:00 | |
| So that's why we're asking for the modification. | 00:10:04 | |
| If you have any questions on the development already. | 00:10:06 | |
| Any questions? | 00:10:09 | |
| Pretty straightforward. Thank you, Sir. | 00:10:10 | |
| Appreciate that. | 00:10:12 | |
| OK, at this time we'd like to open up. | 00:10:13 | |
| The session for anybody like to speak in favor. | 00:10:16 | |
| Of this project, please come forward, state your name and address for the record. | 00:10:19 | |
| Seeing that there's nobody. | 00:10:25 | |
| Coming up. | 00:10:26 | |
| We'll close that section and open up the. | 00:10:27 | |
| Anybody would like to speak in opposition? | 00:10:30 | |
| Of this project, please come forward. | 00:10:32 | |
| State your name and address for the record. | 00:10:35 | |
| Barbara, 58. | 00:10:45 | |
| I'm really not opposed, I would just like to know. | 00:10:47 | |
| He applied for. | 00:10:51 | |
| Variance instead of small subdivision under 5 homes. | 00:10:52 | |
| Which of the houses along Luther Rd. are? | 00:10:56 | |
| Considered in this subdivision, it was my understanding they all work, which is more. | 00:10:58 | |
| 5. | 00:11:02 | |
| I I'm not going to be able to answer that, but I will get you an answer for that when you get done for it. | 00:11:05 | |
| Frank, you want to try to address that? | 00:11:09 | |
| I wasn't. I got distracted by the. | 00:11:12 | |
| Uh, audio question? | 00:11:14 | |
| That small subdivision. | 00:11:18 | |
| Less than five homes. | 00:11:20 | |
| Are considered as. | 00:11:24 | |
| There's. | 00:11:27 | |
| What's that? How many years ago? Years. | 00:11:36 | |
| Miles back on. | 00:11:41 | |
| But at this time, it's just the one that's being. | 00:11:43 | |
| So. | 00:11:48 | |
| Anything. | 00:11:49 | |
| Well, it said five homes or less for a small subdivision, so that's each time that there's a slope. | 00:11:50 | |
| That's the classification of what they applied for. They could have 5. | 00:11:56 | |
| Or less. | 00:12:00 | |
| And all they're doing is splitting it. | 00:12:01 | |
| So it doesn't matter the other homes that are in the Charid subdivision, I thought it was the whole subdivision had to be 5 or | 00:12:02 | |
| less. It does based on like a time requirement sort of it's five years, I think if I'm not mistaken. You can, you can, you can | 00:12:07 | |
| apply. | 00:12:11 | |
| And please correct me if I'm wrong. | 00:12:16 | |
| Every five years you can you can divide. | 00:12:19 | |
| Administrative subdivision again if you want to after five years. | 00:12:23 | |
| Yeah. And then the road frontage is 100 foot, but then there's a little cut in in the picture. | 00:12:26 | |
| So is the lot going to be 100 foot all the way back or just at the road frontage? | 00:12:32 | |
| Can you put the? | 00:12:37 | |
| Plant back up there. | 00:12:38 | |
| So. So we do. | 00:12:43 | |
| Our lot width requirements are that it be measured at the front yard set back right. | 00:12:46 | |
| So if it tapers off towards the back. | 00:12:52 | |
| That's fine according to our zoning ordinance or subdivision control ordinances. | 00:12:55 | |
| That width has to be met up to so at the. | 00:13:00 | |
| Road frontage and then also the width is measured at the front yard set back, so that's the 60 foot back. | 00:13:03 | |
| And so it starts to taper off afterwards. | 00:13:09 | |
| From there, but that's. | 00:13:11 | |
| Uh, that does mean what we're. | 00:13:12 | |
| What it's supposed to mean? | 00:13:14 | |
| OK. Thank you, Barbara. | 00:13:16 | |
| Anybody else? | 00:13:19 | |
| Just state your name and your address for the record please. | 00:13:22 | |
| My name is Anita Kelly at 5831 W Luther. | 00:13:27 | |
| And originally Shawbridge was supposed to be on Vincent's and Luther Rd. | 00:13:31 | |
| All those homes that Johnny built were supposed to be. | 00:13:37 | |
| Shaw Ridge and then. | 00:13:40 | |
| Last I knew, when he was getting ready to build the last two on Vincennes or whatever. | 00:13:42 | |
| He took. | 00:13:47 | |
| His first house out of Shaw Ridge. | 00:13:47 | |
| And he took his new house out of saw where John Luther. | 00:13:50 | |
| So we live. | 00:13:53 | |
| Supposedly Shaw Ridge and we don't even know. | 00:13:55 | |
| What Shaw Ridge is anymore? | 00:13:57 | |
| Because we just found out that. | 00:13:59 | |
| The land behind us. | 00:14:02 | |
| Used to be a strip that Johnny owned. | 00:14:05 | |
| And. | 00:14:07 | |
| He at some point deeded it. | 00:14:09 | |
| To the people behind us. | 00:14:10 | |
| Like a year or two years ago, he said. Two years and then the. | 00:14:13 | |
| Somebody told me that the county told him. | 00:14:16 | |
| One year ago. | 00:14:19 | |
| So that was a surprise when the stakes went in because we've taken care of it for 20 years. | 00:14:20 | |
| You know the bottom land of our property goes down. | 00:14:25 | |
| And. | 00:14:29 | |
| We've just been taking care for 20 years, so we don't know what is really Shaw Ridge and what isn't Shawl. | 00:14:29 | |
| So we're all confused, I think. | 00:14:35 | |
| So and we were told. | 00:14:38 | |
| Supposedly that papers went out when he agreed. | 00:14:40 | |
| Design behind us A year ago we and none of us got papers. | 00:14:45 | |
| On it. So like I said. | 00:14:49 | |
| Already and I would like to know what is Shaw Ridge? Is it just the Luther Rd. Homes? | 00:14:55 | |
| Or is it the Vincent? | 00:15:00 | |
| And. | 00:15:01 | |
| And how? How did he just all of a sudden slip some more houses out of Shaw Ridge? And why? | 00:15:04 | |
| Why are we being penalized or is it good thing or is it a bad thing that we're installing? | 00:15:10 | |
| And how does it, how does it affect you? So it's just, I can just understand how does this affect you? | 00:15:14 | |
| This new home going in? Yes, ma'am. | 00:15:19 | |
| Well, there's. | 00:15:21 | |
| Now lateral lines that are come home behind the two homes inside us. Barbara, right, and Darren lived to the left of us, right. | 00:15:23 | |
| So that's going to come up all the way up to where our property ends basically. I mean, if you have problems with it. | 00:15:31 | |
| Well. | 00:15:36 | |
| Right. Well, the. | 00:15:38 | |
| Barbara, you have to sit back down. I'm sorry. I. | 00:15:41 | |
| That's that's our protocol. You can't come back up. I'm very sorry. | 00:15:44 | |
| That's so close to the laterals being put there, although if they aren't maintained and smell, you know. | 00:15:48 | |
| That's going to be right here. Is your house on? Is your house on septic? | 00:15:54 | |
| Yawn yawn. Septic. | 00:15:58 | |
| OK. All right. | 00:15:59 | |
| But that health department is pretty strict these days, I can tell you. | 00:16:01 | |
| Not only that. | 00:16:04 | |
| I wanted to state that there is a spring on that lot that we all enjoy, that it comes down. | 00:16:06 | |
| At the bottom land of our property. I'm in Edgar's the wildlife then. | 00:16:11 | |
| And supposedly he's going to put. | 00:16:15 | |
| He's running the lateral lines. | 00:16:17 | |
| Off that property, basically back behind the next two houses. | 00:16:19 | |
| And is the house in any of the other lateral lines than A? | 00:16:24 | |
| Leading to the spring I'm there. | 00:16:29 | |
| I wouldn't think the health department would allow that, but we'll ask. We'll ask the Brad when he comes back up to see if we can | 00:16:31 | |
| get you some answers. | 00:16:34 | |
| Go ahead, Frank. | 00:16:37 | |
| Go, go ahead. I had one thing just to add to your question on Shaw Ridge. You know what? | 00:16:39 | |
| Annetta, is it Annetta, Annetta. Annetta Annette, Is that what I'm saying? | 00:16:44 | |
| Nada, ma'am. | 00:16:49 | |
| Could you come back up here just really quickly? | 00:16:51 | |
| Yeah. | 00:16:54 | |
| Just Shaw Ridge, I believe this is. I don't have it. | 00:16:55 | |
| Really fresh in my mind, but I believe there's two sections to Shawl Ridge. | 00:16:59 | |
| The first section came about down. | 00:17:02 | |
| Down Luther that's been there a while and then they planted a separate section a Section 2. | 00:17:04 | |
| Which came about more recently. | 00:17:10 | |
| And that's what we're talking about Section 2. So I believe you live in Section 1, so I don't. | 00:17:12 | |
| I think Section 1 is staying exactly how it's always been. | 00:17:16 | |
| How can you be talking about Section 2 when Section 1 is where Johnny lives right now, right down the road from us? | 00:17:19 | |
| Yeah. | 00:17:27 | |
| Go back behind, you know, those two people. And that's what I'm, I'm confused because the people behind us were part of Shaw | 00:17:29 | |
| Ridge. | 00:17:33 | |
| And then he's all of a sudden deeds this. | 00:17:37 | |
| Whatever. And if they're not in part, Shaw Ridge anymore. | 00:17:39 | |
| I mean, are they allowed to have like farm animals and all this stuff if they're not part of, you know. | 00:17:42 | |
| Well, I don't know all the restrictions, but the good news for you the the health department, I mean, they're they're pretty | 00:17:47 | |
| ********. So I mean, they're going to. | 00:17:50 | |
| You know they're not going to just allow. | 00:17:54 | |
| Just lateral lines just to drain raw into. | 00:17:55 | |
| You know, just. | 00:17:58 | |
| Out there so. | 00:17:59 | |
| They're going to definitely do their due diligence and. | 00:18:01 | |
| You know the septic installer. | 00:18:03 | |
| You know, Johnny has built a lot of homes and he's. | 00:18:05 | |
| You know, done a lot of. | 00:18:07 | |
| Business with. | 00:18:08 | |
| With reputable. | 00:18:09 | |
| Contractors. So I would imagine that. | 00:18:11 | |
| You know whoever's doing that. | 00:18:13 | |
| The septic whoever's doing the, you know, the health department checks. | 00:18:14 | |
| It it'll be solid. | 00:18:19 | |
| Hope so, because you know that spring. | 00:18:21 | |
| Right behind us. | 00:18:24 | |
| Thank you. Thank you. | 00:18:25 | |
| OK. | 00:18:27 | |
| OK, go ahead, Frank. | 00:18:29 | |
| Just a quick point of clarification. Yes, Sir, this is this is Section 2 that we pulled up here. This is the Plat 1537. | 00:18:30 | |
| There was a previous Section 1 for Shawbridge. | 00:18:38 | |
| Uh, this contains the area that is going to be split. | 00:18:41 | |
| It doesn't look quite the same as what is being split because a portion of it. | 00:18:45 | |
| Was deeded over to one of the southern properties in what I think was an exempt subdivision. | 00:18:49 | |
| I don't have the details right in front of me at the moment. | 00:18:54 | |
| I think that's what occurred. It comes like a year or two ago. | 00:18:56 | |
| And so if I'm correct in that it was an exempt subdivision, that wouldn't have been something that would have gone before the | 00:19:00 | |
| board and there wouldn't have been. | 00:19:04 | |
| Right. Gotcha. | 00:19:07 | |
| Ma'am and I'll. | 00:19:10 | |
| Ma'am, please respect our protocol if you will. | 00:19:13 | |
| But to provide some extra context of the exempt it's an interior lot that's changing. | 00:19:18 | |
| It's not creating a new lot. | 00:19:22 | |
| Right. | 00:19:24 | |
| OK. | 00:19:24 | |
| Mr. Brad. | 00:19:25 | |
| Do you have it? | 00:19:27 | |
| Pretty well down what you need to address. | 00:19:28 | |
| In your mind. | 00:19:31 | |
| Let's see what we can do. Aye, As far as septic. | 00:19:33 | |
| They'll work with the health board. | 00:19:35 | |
| Then we've been septic on. | 00:19:37 | |
| Almost every lot out here will be. | 00:19:39 | |
| Following that protocol for all of these. | 00:19:41 | |
| Going forward. | 00:19:43 | |
| Especially on this new lot, as far as the timeline of some of these splits. | 00:19:44 | |
| So I believe the locks they're talking about their own are Section 1, which you can kind of see on this map we've got pulled up | 00:19:48 | |
| there is kind of. | 00:19:51 | |
| On the page to the northwest of John's big Lot 203 there. | 00:19:54 | |
| And then if you'll. | 00:19:59 | |
| He came back to the current plat. | 00:20:01 | |
| The one you're playing for. You can see there the triangle on the left hand side of the page. | 00:20:05 | |
| John took a portion of his lot 203 and then. | 00:20:11 | |
| Sold it to. | 00:20:14 | |
| Someone who had lot 201 right in there so just. | 00:20:16 | |
| Took from one platform yeah I just. | 00:20:20 | |
| Stayed within the subdivision, right. It stays within the subdivision. Yes, that and that happened a few years ago. Looks like | 00:20:21 | |
| this was reported earlier this year, but I'm not sure exactly that's that sale happened. | 00:20:26 | |
| So we are doing. | 00:20:33 | |
| 100 foot at the front set back line. | 00:20:35 | |
| Coming back to its 80 feet after that little kickback there. So it'll be 80 feet all the way back to the bid and the property. | 00:20:37 | |
| And you're looking to put the. | 00:20:42 | |
| The septic field back there around I think where the bend is going to be. | 00:20:43 | |
| And their whole work with the health department on all that, all points going forward. | 00:20:46 | |
| Anybody any questions for Brad? | 00:20:51 | |
| No, sorry. It's not public Question Time. I'm sorry. The board is the only one that's allowed to speak with him at this point. | 00:20:55 | |
| Does anybody on the board have a question for Brad? | 00:20:59 | |
| No. | 00:21:09 | |
| All right. Thank you. I'm looking for a ballot. | 00:21:10 | |
