Commissioner Tetens asked if this is zoned R-4, and questioned the right to reserve
a drill site, and Mr. Hargrove replied that it is zoned R-4.
City Engineer Hargrove stated that he is not an expert on drill sites, or does he
know what there requirements are. He stated that from their first preliminary plat
that they submitted for review they designated this same drill site with different
numbers on it, and he pointed out the 2.7741. He finally stated that he doesn't
know the drill site law and he doesn't think it is his point to know it.
Discussion ensued between Mr. Hargrove and Commissioner Tetens regarding the
drill site. Mr. Hargrove then stated that it has always been his experience from the
many different conversations with owners and attorneys, that it's always been an
issue between the seller and a buyer.
Commissioner Patro asked if there will be a conflict with the park reserve, and Mr.
Hargrove replied that if he understands the law then if there are surface
improvements that prevent an owner of a right to exercise his right then those
surface improvements can be removed.
Commissioner locco asked if this is the same situation that came up with the
Beazer Homes deal when they had a drill site and either Gene Tumlinson or Darrin
Coker stated that as long as the noise ordinance is in effect, then that will dictate
anything. He then pointed out that it could not be a 24-hour rig.
Commissioner Selemon asked about the existing detention pond and if there are
plans to move the other one located on the plat, and Mr. Hargrove replied that there
is one detention pond that will take flow off of one street and one detention pond
that will take the flow off another street. He then stated that the Engineering
Department has used hydraulic analysis to make sure that this will work.
