Re: Senate Bill 35 Exemption
Harry Williams
Gentlemen:
The above request for exemption is located in the same general
vicinity and the Pat Fitzgerald request and the Ben Carnes request
for exemption which was granted on March 17, 1975.
The geologic conditions outlined in the letter pertaining to the
Pat Fitzgerald request apply to this property as well. Approval of
this request for exemption would be acceptable to this department
in keeping the density of future residential development in this
vicinity to 10 and 20 acre lots. I feel, to permit any smaller lots,
or subsequent resubdivisions of the exempted properties without
involving the subdivision regulations would insure present and
future homeowners in this area with major erosion and foundation
problems.
The provision of utilities, water and sewer would not present a
problem in this area.
A $90.00 fee must be filed for the processing of this application.
I would recommend approval of the exemption.

Sincerely,
