will be turned sideways facing the wrong direction. Mr. Dillavou stated in the

in a residential district. Mr. Dillavou urged the council not to pass the

attractive homes that will add to the neighborhood, and provide a boost to the
neighborhood. Mr. Deeds stated he lives in this neighborhood and he wants to
see it get better. Mr. Deeds stated the homes will have about 1,294 square
feet of living space on the first and second floors and the basement will be
stubbed in with room to finish it for 300 to 400 more living space. Mr. Deeds

and hardwood floors in the entryway. Mr. Deeds stated he intends to start

Engineering on behalf of Norm Hayek to rezone from "A-1" Agricultural District

published in the Waterloo Courier on September 2, 2004, be received and placed

120422 - This being the time and place of public hearing, the Mayor called for written
and oral objections.
City Clerk Nancy Eckert reported that a letter was received from Jeff Kutz who
is very much in favor of increasing the tax base. Mr. Kutz is concerned that
the developer follow proper and accepted engineering techniques to handle
additional storm sewer runoff during the design and construction of the
subdivision.
Jim O'Regan stated that this property was originally sold as agricultural land
with a horse farm located south of the area. Mr. O'Regan} reported that there
has been construction in the street all summer, with runoff into the storm
sewer and into the creek all summer. Mr. O'Regan stated he has concerns when
there is a one inch rainfall as to how it will affect downstream. Mr. O'Regan
stated this is a nice neighborhood and community, but he feels that is a lot of
houses for that area.
Bill Claassen, Claassen Engineering, distributed copies of drawings showing the
Prescotts Creek Drainage Area. Mr. Claassen reported the area is closer to
Highway 63 and is four or five miles downstream from the Upper drainage basin.
Mr. Claassen reviewed the areas contained within the 100 year flood plain, the
500 year flood plain and the floodway. Mr. Claassen stated that there will be
no measurable impact on Prescotts Creek for a 100 year event because of its
proximity to the mouth of the drainage area. A storm occurring on this
drainage area will get into the receiving area more quickly then upstream. Mr.
Claassen stated he understands the concerns of people living next to a stream,
but just about every development in the city would be close to a stream of some
kind. A lake will be constructed as part of the subdivision containing three
surface acres. Excavation from the lake will be used in the street area of
Crusade Drive to increase the height. Some of the material will be used in the
future in the northern area of the subdivision. Mr. ClaaSsen stated according
to the flood plain regulations, it is permissible to fill anywhere except in
the flood plain, and that won't be necessary.
Mayor Hurley asked if the storm sewer will dump into Prescotts Creek. Eric
Thorson, City Engineer, responded that a number of subdivisions dump into
Prescotts Creek so he assumes this one will too.
Mr. Claassen reported that the trees along Lake Little ',John will remain as
there is no construction along there.
Norm Hayek, 4720 West 4th Street, reported there was a lot Of development in the
area this summer because he is trying to get this subdivision going.
