Mr. Jack reviewed the plans for the Planning Commission Reg. Meeting Page 4, Sept. 19, 1972 and found everything in order and recommends to the Board that same be approved by it. The Board did approve the plans and applicatirn. The matter of storn sewer on High Drive wss discussed and the - best way to handle the water on High Drive where the water comes from the I-635 project. Mr. Jack advised that one way to handle this would be to place two 24" pipe from the present 36" which is at juncetion of Cerreto and High Drive and put one m each side of the street. The ditch has been cleaned out very well. if the two 24" pipe are placed and replace one pipe oz the north side of High Drive which is under some sort of driveway, Mr. Jack thought this would get the City by with a five year storm at the cost of $4,000 to $6,000, howe~ this is a rough estimate, and the ditches would have to be cleaned out and kept cleaned. The Board brought up the fact that this could possibly be done by special assessment to the property owners. Mr. Jack stated that he thought there was a good chance that $he City could get Federal aid on this project this would possibly come under emergency aid and he would like a little time and investigate this further. Another matter Don Jack brought up was that he his been asked to go over the model zoning ordinances and then bring up the portions that he has questions about to the Planning Commission, as it now stands the Commission cannot get through much of it at its meetings and thought this way it would go faster and he wanted authority from the Board to do this, it would be somewhere from ten to 15 hours of time, and he would keep it to the bare minimum. Mr. Jack reported that he talked to Mr. Woodside regarding the repair necessary on Woodland where the manhole was installed. and advised that he does not want the patching done this year, maybe some sealing and cold patch would be in order this year, but the permanent work should be done next year. Mr. Jack reported on the Andes and Roberts project and didn't know if they would ever get started oz the other portion of the buildings, they have run into several problems. Mrs. Green's sewer project is coming along okay. The matter of an address for Funkhouser Machinery was brought up and the post office said there was another place with the same address further north on No. 9 Highway.
