10-20-1983 Workshop Meeting . CITY OF CLERMONT . MINUTES WORKSHOP MEETING October 20, 1983 A Workshop Meeting of the City Council of the City of Clermont was held on Thursday, October 20, 1983 in the City Hall Conference Room. The Meeting was called to order at 7:00 p.m. by Mayor Beals with the following Council Members in attendance: Mayor Pro Tern Pool, Council Member Turville, and Council Member Dupee. Counc~l Member Cole was on vacation and unable to attend. Other City Officials present were City Engineer John Springstead and City Manager George Forbes. 201 PLAN An update of the 201 Plan was given by the City Manager and City Engineer. They explained that the plan had been accepted by the State and Federal Governments, and the City's step two plus three application had been officially certified. Presently the City is waiting for certification of its FONSI. When it is received, the City will receive a formal grant award. This award is expected by the end of December 1983. City Manager Forbes explained that once the award is granted, the City would immediately purchase additional land for the landspread- ing site and treatment plant expansion. Mr. Springstead explained the contract of $82,500 for the 201 Plan planning work. He also explained that the original contract covered one area, just south of the City's present landspreading site to be used with the 201 application. However, the City chose to include two additional alternative sites. He explained that additional bills of $16,618.06 were necessary for completion of the 201 Plan. City Manager Forbes agreed that the scope of work had increased due to the inclusion of the two additional sites. However, he felt some of the work being presented under the additional bill should have been covered in the original contract because it was required to be per- formed on the first site. After much discussion, the Council stated that they understood the situation, and would take a formal vote at the next Regular Council Meeting. REZONING REQUEST Mr. Bob Wade and Mr. Paul paynton, a Civil Engineer retained by Mr. Wade were present at the Workshop to explain their rezoning request. The Council reviewed Mr. Wade's conceptual plans and topographic map of his property. It was explained that not as much fill as originally thought would be needed on the site, and that it was Mr. Wade's intent to have enough property 600' in depth to allow a first class develop- ment on the property. Many appropriate factors were discussed, and included: the pros and cons of having this type of development on a hillside, the width of the roads and lift stations. The Council Members discussed whether the commercial property should be developed as a PUD. However, this was opposed by Mr. Wade. Many options to insure that-the property requested to be zoned commercial is developed according to the plans of Mr. Wade were also discussed. Mr. Paynton recommended that the City should possibly restrict the development in the commercial area to a minimum of two acre parcels.
