ECCA Position:

Applicant was supposed to send us a new survey today, but we have not received it. According to our calculations and Dave Breaden’s, the property currently is at 38.3 % impervious surface without the pool (3.3% over what it allowed by code). The applicant is now planning on removing 200 sq. ft. of driveway and adding 703 sq. ft of pervious pool deck (taking a 40% credit for using this paving system) bringing the impervious surface calculation down to 39.8% with 41.6% of the property covered by impervious or pervious surfaces. Both numbers are still greater than what is allowed by code.

We propose that they remove an additional 1.5% of impervious surface on the property to bring the amount of impervious surface back to the number they originally started with (38.3% impervious surface). This would allow them to have their pool and the amount of impervious surface would not be greater than what they have currently.

Board of Zoning Appeals and Variances Action: Approve 5-0 subject the total impervious and pervious surfaces not to exceed 40%, stormwater management approval of the final plan and survey and no additional water to leave the property.
