Motion by Sullivan, second by Rettig, to approve Resolution 03-11-10-01.
Convened Public Hearing on the following Platting application and Ordinances amending the Johnson County Unified Development Ordinance at 5:38 p.m.
Subdivision Application 16159 of Dean Oakes requesting preliminary and final plat approval of Sugar Bottom Oakes Subdivision, a subdivision described as being located in the SE 1/4 of the SE 1/4 of Section 3, Township 80 North, Range 6 West of the 5th P.M. in Johnson County, Iowa. This is a 2 Lot, 3.49 acre residential subdivision located on the south side of Sugar Bottom Road NE approximately 2,000 feet west of its intersection with Poplar Avenue NE in Newport Township.
Planning and Zoning Assistant Planner Josh Busard said the Johnson County Department of Public Health (Public Health) has elected to not require the applicant to have one shared well for this subdivision. Planning and Zoning staff believes this is in conflict with the Land Use Plan and the newly adopted regulations regarding non-public water supply wells. Busard said Planning and Zoning staff would like the well placement identified when the lot is platted. Rettig asked why Planning and Zoning thinks this contradicts the Land Use Plan. Busard said the Land Use Plan states the County wants shared wells and septic systems whenever possible because it facilitates higher densities. Rettig asked why staff wants advance notice of how many wells there will be. Busard said staff prefers one well, but with two lots, access and maintenance easements are needed, and it is preferable that the easements are on the plat so that prospective buyers are fully aware of the buildable area and the well and septic placement.
Rettig asked if the newly adopted regulations regarding non-public water supply wells are Public Health regulations. Busard said yes, they state that whenever possible, shared wells are preferred. Rettig asked if there are any particulars about this land that make it impossible to share systems. Busard said no. Harney asked if there is anything in the County's platting regulations that stipulates identifying shared wells or spotting well locations before approval of the platting. Busard said no, the plat is technically correct, however, staff wants to encourage shared wells and wastewater systems whenever possible. Rettig said there is nothing in this plat that is out of order, therefore she does not have a reason to vote no, but she does not have to be happy about how it was handled and that it contradicts the Land Use Plan and Public Health's internal policies.
MMS Consultants Representative Glen Meisner was present to answer questions. Public Health Director Douglas Beardsley said Public Health regulations give discretion to the Johnson County Department of Public Health as the administrative authority. He said placing a shared well location on the plat would limit where structures could be placed. He offered to provide a report to the Board. Rettig said she would like a report detailing why Public Health is allowing this, and that she thinks the Board and Public Health should follow the Land Use Plan. Sullivan said he hopes in the future, these issues can be resolved before the plat. Planning and Zoning Administrator Rick Dvorak said a 25 foot well easement could be sited adjacent to the right-of-way, making it accessible without access easements and within the 40 foot building setback with no additional setback from the well easement. Harney said he will support the application because it does not violate any regulations

Motion by Harney, second by Rettig, to approve Resolution 03-11-10-Z1.
First and Second consideration of the following Zoning Ordinance Amendments:
An Ordinance amending the Johnson County Unified Development Ordinance to add a “RC”-Rural cluster zoning district to encourage the protection and conservation of open spaces.
Moore said this is a new zoning district that he believes would compliment the Clustered Subdivision Ordinance. He said Planning and Zoning cannot make clustering a requirement, nor require that applicants ask for a zoning district, but only make recommendations. The 2008 Land Use Plan identifies clustering as the preferred development style. This particular residential district is intended for only large subdivisions of 15 or more lots. Moore referenced in his PowerPoint presentation examples of clustered subdivisions.
Stutsman asked Moore to read the Planning and Zoning February 18, 2010, memo recently sent to Board members. Moore read the memo detailing the history of the preferred development style of clustering and why staff has proposed a new Rural Clustered zoning district.
Harney asked, if all lots in a clustered subdivision could not be serviced by one Department of Natural Resources (DNR) permitted system, whether a second DNR permitted system is needed on the other side of the development. Moore said as long as 51% of the total lots are created on the DNR system, they would encourage residents to use a Johnson County Department of Public Health permitted shared system rather than one system per lot.
Harney said he has concerns about the DNR's management and inspection of their systems because of their track record, particularly with Iowa City Regency Mobile Home Community (Regency). He said local control would be favorable and asked if it is allowed. Moore said he thinks not. He said that Beardsley has the same valid concerns, which is why they want to defer this ordinance amendment giving the DNR time to consider relinquishing inspection authority to Public Health.
Rettig said her understanding is that DNR's concerns are with regulatory authority and their ability to permit, inspect, and manage more systems. Johnson County might be more capable to provide better oversight of the private cluster subdivisions than over semi-public systems. Moore said they would rather have Public Health conduct permitting and inspections. He said legislation may be required. Dvorak said they will be getting more information for the Board about the concept of the DNR sharing responsibility with local departments.
Beardsley clarified Public Health's intent is to recognize an additional tool to aid in meeting the Land Use Plan. Public Health supports the Land Use Plan. Beardsley said he thinks the property should not be designed around a wastewater system but rather the opposite. Public Health recommends adding a DNR system, a semi-public system, or a shared private system. Beardsley said shared private sewage systems provide an option for subdivisions with rural clustered zoning which could not have otherwise been met by DNR requirements.
Beardsley said that in the 1960s the Board of Public Health was insightful in limiting the density of sewage systems in the private sewage regulations: one system per three or five acres. He doesn't think the regulations are in conflict with the Land Use Plan. Beardsley does think there is some question about the definition of Clustered Subdivision. He showed a slide of Westcott Heights Part III, which is on a DNR permitted system, and said the area could have used a shared system. Rettig asked for clarification of Beardsley's comment. Beardsley said if the most appropriate system is a DNR system hooking up all the houses, that's what they propose. But if there had been something about that land that didn't make the DNR permitted system the most feasible, they still could have met the density requirements with shared systems. Beardsley said he doubts anyone would propose 12 shared systems as in his example.
Rettig asked how many acres are in the development. Beardsley said 102 acres, with 53 buildable lots. Rettig said according to Public Health rules, there could be 10 systems in this subdivision. Beardsley replied that is 10 systems, not houses. Rettig said there are 13 systems in Beardsley's example and therefore it would not work in the Lake McBride area because it would violate Public Health's rules. Beardsley said that would not work if the shared systems were done exclusively. He said Public Health is not seeking an either-or solution, but, as appropriate, a combination could be used.
Beardsley said there is a 1,000 foot setback with the DNR permitted systems. Any resident within the 1,000 feet would have to give permission to install the system. Without permission, DNR could issue a waiver of the setback, but DNR has said if a feasible alternative exists, they will deny the waiver. In this situation shared systems are a feasible alternative. He added that all systems have potential for failure, and history shows that DNR response time is poor. Local control would improve response times.
Sullivan said the DNR is not handling problems with systems adequately and they are not doing their jobs, which is not acceptable. He said these expenses should be borne by the developers. Beardsley said there are just too few DNR staff members to get the job done. Beardsley said if the State gives the County inspection authority, there will be a fiscal impact one way or another. Stutsman said her understanding is that the County would keep any fees collected.
Harney asked Beardsley if water systems should also be shared. Beardsley said yes, whenever deemed appropriate. Harney said another issue is well safety, inspection, and monitoring. Beardsley said at a certain level of usage, an additional layer of testing is required. Citing the brand new, yet contaminated, well at Regency with just passable water quality, Harney said his opinion is that testing should be local. Beardsley said the Regency wells are not under the County's jurisdiction. Harney said they probably should be.
Dvorak said DNR Representative Paul Brandt said the issues at Regency are almost under control. He said they were fined by DNR. Harney asked what provisions are available for a subdivision with larger lots because they certainly would not be able to share a central system. Moore said this proposal would not be the appropriate zoning district for large lots and Planning and Zoning would discourage large lot sprawled subdivisions.
Sullivan said he is extremely interested in limiting the number of wells and septic systems. His main concern is that the State doesn’t seem capable of living up to its responsibility and he asked what to do about that. Sullivan said he is concerned that locally, there are different approaches in dealing with developers. He would like the developer to approach the Board with a concept while at the same time understand what the Board wants. Moore said that the developer should approach the DNR first with an inventory of what is buildable.
Sullivan said it would be best to have the two departments communicate with each other. He doesn’t want to make exceptions for the developer simply because it would be less expensive, but he also doesn't expect them to take on millions of dollars in lift stations, he just wants them to be reasonable in their efforts to meet the goals of the County's plan. Moore and Beardsley said they have no objections to bringing parties together with both departments for discussion.
Kathy Swenka asked how the rezoning would affect current farmers in the area. Moore said this zoning would be used in villages and the North Corridor and should not impact current farmers in the area. Paul Deaton expressed support for local control. Erin Pettypiece commented on differences in the types of wastewater systems.
Motion by Sullivan, second by Rettig, to defer first and second consideration of an Ordinance amending the Johnson County Unified Development Ordinance to add a “RC”-Rural cluster zoning district to encourage the protection and conservation of open spaces to June 10, 2010, at 5:30 p.m. and continue the public hearing.

An Ordinance amending the Johnson County Unified Development Ordinance concerning farmstead splits accessed primarily by level “B”/dirt roads.
Kathy Swenka asked for an explanation of the effect of the proposed amendment. Moore said the owner could ask the Board to improve the road. Sullivan said the owner could ask for the road to be vacated and take it over as a private drive. Harney said he could not support this amendment because the Board has not had a history of improving Level B roads for property owners to have access to a home even if it is a relatively short segment. Rettig said the Board does not have the resources to maintain the miles they have of Level B roads.
Motion by Sullivan, second by Stutsman, to waive the requirement of three considerations before amending an ordinance and to approve an Ordinance amending the Johnson County Unified Development Ordinance concerning farmstead splits accessed primarily by level “B” / dirt roads on first and second consideration. Roll call: aye: Stutsman, Sullivan, Rettig; nay: Harney; absent: Neuzil. (This motion constitutes passage on first consideration only due to the lack of three-fourths of the entire Board voting aye.)
