ITEM #7 DISCUSSION – Review, discuss and make recommendations on the
development of 16 residential lots on approximately 17 acres of land located at
208 Randol Mill Avenue, 1719 Maranatha Way and 1825 Maranatha Way.
Staff presentation: Richard Schell
• Future Land Use: Low Density Residential
• Zoning: AG and SF-1B
• Distance to existing sewer: +/- 1/3 mile
Questions for staff by the Committee:
John Huffman: Regarding the septic system, is this something we can grant a variance
on? Or is the county involved with that?
Richard Schell: The city can grant a variance to the City’s ordinance.
Shawn McCaskill: Is Plan B (with no access to Davis) the preferred plan?
Richard Schell: Yes, Plan B is the preferred plan.
John Huffman: Where is the tie in to the public right-of-way?
Richard Schell: Assuming W estlake will not grant access, the only access to the
development will be Maranatha.
John Huffman: Where does public right of way end?
Ken Baker: Where Maranatha starts, and Randol Mill begins.
Frances Scharli: Who has right of way right now?
Dennis Killough: The drive is private.
John Huffman: Would the street remain private? Can you connect a public street to a
private street?
Ken Baker: I don’t think there is a case where we’ve done that before.
Applicant presentation: Dan Anderson
• There is an ordinance that allows cul-de-sacs to be 1,000ft, but we are over that
• Two lane road
• Want to preserve the look and feel of street

Questions for applicant by the Committee:
Frances Scharli: Assuming that Westlake will not grant you access, will there only be
one access point (one way in and out)?
Applicant: Yes, that’s the way it looks. We have not asked Westlake to have
emergency egress. We also initiated drainage study.
John Huffman: Theoretically, could the city take possession of all of Maranatha?
Ken Baker: It is theoretically possible; yes.
John Huffman: Would it be better to have entire thing as public or private?
Frances Scharli: Have you checked with the neighbors?
Applicant: We attended a SPIN meeting; the neighbors are most concerned with
drainage issues.
Frances Scharli: How many ROWs are there?
John Huffman: The roadway issue is the primary hurdle. I suggest working with
Westlake.
Ken Baker: If it remains a private street, City Council would like to see which
improvements would be made on Maranatha.
Michael Springer: Where is the closest water access? Is that adequate?
John Huffman: I recommend you solve the Davis issue before coming through the
process.
