?-, PLANNING COMMISSION APRIL 12, 1983 PAGE 3 sublot. 23 non-conforming when adjoining rear portions of Walter Rd. lot could possibly be purchased. Many voiced complaints about existing drainage problems: inadequate and poorly maintained ditches, poorly graded lots, standing water. Mr. McDermott explained that improvement plans must be sub- mitted and would include the underground retention systemand these must be approved by the Planning Commission and the Engi- neering Department. Iie also advised that by ordinance no additional water is allowed to run off on adjacent property and must be contained within the retention system. Neighbors were still unconvinced and would like statements in writing or additional bonds guaranteeing that there would be no ad- ditional problems. Bonds are required now, and according to Mr. Dubleko, no additional bond can be requested. Property owners were advised to check with the Engineering and Service Departments and their Councilperson about their difficulties. It was also pointed out there there are water pressure problems now existing, these will have to be worked out with the Cleveland Water Department. T. Morgan moved to approve the 7515 Company's Subdivision No 1, Final Plat and 7515 Company's Subdivision No 2 Final Plat which includes Tara Lynn Dr, with the following rec- ommendations: 1. That sublot 23 be approved by the Board of Zoning Appeals as platted (northern property line is less than 135'). This sublot could be platted with a northern property line of 135', leaving a small section of land which would not be buildable. This would not be in the best interest of the City. 2. That the construction equipment for the development of sub- division No. 2 use access from Columbia Road (sublots 1, 2, or 3) instead of access from Walter Rd. (sublot 4). These sublots are all in subdivision No. 1. 3. Drainage problem in this area be very closly studied, and that the Engineering Department take all the necessary steps to insure that the water retention system proposed by the developer will, in fact, be adequate for removal of water from this land and will not in any way add any water to any adjacent property owners. 4. Request that the developer contact the City of Cleveland Water Department to insure that there is adequate water pressure and supply for the new development because of the many statements by property owners that the water` pressure in this area is inadequate. and also refer this request to the Safety Department to review the plans for traffic in this area, particularly for any pro- blem that the construction access road might give from Columbia to the subdivision, seconded by J. Burns, and unanimously approved.
