,,- Further discussion ensued in regard to street lighting and the need for a set of standard guidelines. Mr. Swift said he would be happy to work with Commissioner Wright to develop these guidelines. Commissioner Michelotti asked Commissioner Wright to further clarify his view point regarding the use of the sewer grinder pump. Commissioner Wright explained that he felt the four lots pinpointed to have the sewer grinder pump should have gravity feed; he reiterated that the normal homeowner has no knowledge of a grinder pump; that should something happen to the pump that it is not a simple roto-rooter call to have the problem solved. Mr. Higdon felt that each homeowner of those four lots that have a grinder pump would simply have to maintain the pump. He further explained that the sewer line would be owned collectively by the four lot owners. The. Commission felt this information would have to be clarified to a purchaser on the deed of trust as a disclosure. Mr. Swift said the Commission has three choices: They can delete those four lots from the project, which the developer does not wish to do; they can require a very deep sewer, which is unacceptable to engineering; or they can require some sort of pump system like the one described. .~ Commissioner McGuirk asked about the cost of the grinder pump, and the cost of possible repair to a system using that type of pump. Mr. Higdon indicated a pump would cost about $500; he was not sure of the cost of having a repair person come to the site, but estimated it would be somewhat like any other repair charge. Mr. Swift explained these pumps work the same as a pump that removes water from a basement. A motion was made by Commissioner Hovingh, seconded by Commissioner Michelotti making the required tentative map findings for the proposed subdivision as listed in the staff report; making the finding that the tentative map and the modified grading plan (Exhibit A, dated March 22, 1991) are in substantial conformance with the approved PUD for this site, PUD-89-21, with the condition that a one-story home on Lot 7 shall be required to assure compliance with the aesthetic/visual considerations of the PUD and the EIR; and approving Tract 6400 subject to the conditions listed in Exhibit B and the Standard Conditions for Tentative Maps.
