APPLICATIONS

 

            05-18 Farahmandpour - Orchards - Lot 5  - Kelley Smith and Warren Schmitt visited the property and the issues were discussed in a meeting with Dave Lothspeich, Jim Hogue, Lee Bassett and Warren Schmitt.  Kelley Smith made a motion to approve Mr. Farahmandpour’s request for a waier of the required 20’ setback from the conservancy area.  A chain link fence will be required to protect the conservancy area from construction traffic.

            05-19  Burr - 5757 RFD Promintory Ridge    Lee Bassett moved to recommend to the Village Board approval of this application with the requirement that Stormwater Management and the Village oversee this construction.  We would also require that the Conservancy be reestablished at least 5’ behind the steel wall to be constructed and that the plant list be forwarded to the CSC Committee before planting.  We would also encourage the Burr’s to reestablish the conservancy in all areas that are currently mowed lawn.  Prairie plants would allow rain and snow to be absorbed before running into the pond and also cut down on the amount of fertilizer that is the cause of algae in the pond.

Kathy Wiberg seconded.  All voted to recommend approval to the Village Board.
