ordinances.

building must be elevated above 100-Year Flood
elevation.

D. Analysis
Staff feels that the plan is compatible to the area.
The site is appropriate for the proposed landscaping
related use because of the floodplain/floodway
involvement. No adverse impacts are expected.
E. Staff Recommendation
Approval, subject to comments made.
SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE REVIEW:
The Committee reviewed the application. A discussion
centered around the applicant's request to construct the
building without the required amount of fill. Engineering
reported that only the Board of Adjustment was authorized to
make variances from the floodway. Some Committee members
felt that construction of a floodproof building would
eliminate the potential hazard. Other issues discussed
related to the requirement/location of a Water Works
easement, improvement and dedication of Sibley Hole Road. A
one -lot final i.s required.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION:
The applicant was present. Engineering reported that the
greenhouse would be a flow -through building and the other
would be raised four feet,-- and that the applicant will go to
the Board of Adjustment for a waiver from the floodplain
ordinance. A motion for approval was made and passed by a
vote of 7 ayes, 0 noes and 4 absent.
