Mr. Nabity was present and described the current location it is on Webb Road and 1 R Road. The first subdivision had 9 lots and this one is on the east side. One lot is part of the original subdivision and they are using it to square off one the lots. They are proposing to develop 8 lots one lot has house on it from the original farmstead and one is an out lot for the gravel road. This is a private road the owner is responsible to take care of it. They will set up a neighborhood association to do so. There is one access from Webb Road. This is ag ground that has not been farmed for many years. They will develop 6 additional lots on the second subdivision it is in the floodplain but it is not in the floodway the study stops 100 feet from the road so the floodway stops. The first subdivision did have floodway so there is a zero net fill and they are building some pad sites already. They can build lots and there is a permit that is required they do need to have the permits so if FEMA comes in they have them. The West was rezoned and there is housing going up and there will be a demand for the lots. They are 3 acre lots and will support septic system. The planning commission did recommend approval. 3
