June 2009 - Planning and Zoning Draft Meeting Minutes there was an issue with the County and this pipeline. They came to him and asked if he could give them permission to across that particular property and he wanted to make sure it did not interrupt his subdivision; he got mauled in the process because of that. Mr. Fesperman asked if they told him they would condemn it if he did not go along with it. Mr. Scribner said basically; they said they had the power of imminent domain and is the direction they would go if they had too. He tried to make sure it stayed in the buffer zones and the open space and that they crossed as fewer lots as they had too. He said that is what they said they would do, and in his agreement it says that it will not affect his subdivision, basically. They said it is not a gravity fit or what ever system, so they can go under sewer lines and go around things and they said they would make sure they did that. So, he made sure he stayed in the lead on it to make sure he was not just left with them condemning something that would completely destroy the project. The Chair said since the time that this was originally approved in 2007; what work has been done on the project? Mr. Scribner said they went through the whole process. He was handed the sediment control thing tonight, he was not aware but now he is. He has been fighting the sewer issue forever; they thought they would easily tie it in. He went across the street and purchased additional right of way from the Bolder Creek Subdivision just in case they needed to get to the sewer line that way. They have tried about four different ways to get this, and informed about four months ago that the sewer line is not where they thought it was. He said Autumn Creek Subdivision is actually where the sewer line lies; on that side of the road. They would not let us do the access the simplest way beside the road; they would not let us do an aerial crossing, so they have to go underneath the stream, so you have to go to the opposite side of the road. He has been in correspondence with Autumn Creek; they are not the fastest in the world to get back to you. The last word he received from them was that he should get permission to make the drawing happen on that side of the road and connect with the sewer line. He has been fighting the sewer issue for eight or nine months. The Chair said since the gas line easement has been added, was it Mr. Scribner's intention to modify the plat? Mr. Scribner said they promised him, there again it is the gas line company. He asked when he would get the information back from them to know where to put this thing. How do I really draw it, how is it really going to run; because they said there could be some changes and would get back with him with their engineered plans for that area. They have never gotten back to him on anything. He is more than happy to modify the plans for it once he gets some information that says where it is going to go for sure. He said if that is a condition that he needs to put on there, he will be glad to do it once he knows where it is. Mr. Fesperman asked if Mr. Scribner was being paid for this. Mr. Scribner said they paid him for the one lot that they had to completely do away with. He said they paid the landowners for the land. The whole idea about him not buying the land; he is not about to go out and spend 1.4 million dollars for land that he does not know will ever be built until he gets the sewer and everything approved. He and the landowners have been very close; they talk all the time, we have meetings all the time; and everybody is good with all of this. He is not going to go out and Attachment number 9 Page 76 of 315 E-1
