FROM 04/21/93) : Lanell Adler, Department of Planning Services, stated this case was continued from April 21, 1993 in order to allow time for concerns regarding water source to be answered. Staff concerns stemmed from the Division of Water Resources permitting an in- house well only for the smaller parcel. Ms. Adler reviewed a letter received from Glenn Graham, Office of the State Engineer, stating the amount of -water is adequate to serve one single- family dwelling, water domestic animals, and irrigate up to 13,000 square feet of home lawns and gardens. In response to a question from Commissioner Hall, Ms. Adler said on a domestic- well permit -the Division of -Water normally allows up to one acre. The letter presented today from the Division of Water permits domestic water and irrigation for lawns and gardens. Ms. Adler said the smaller parcel is ten acres. Chairman Minutes - May 19, 1993 Page 3 previous meeting. Burl VanBuskirk, representing the applicant, said the problem from the last meeting was that the permit was for an in-house well only. Now the State Engineer's Office has indicated that a domestic well has been approved. Mr. VanBuskirk explained an irrigation well would not be practical. He reminded the Board this is a former turkey farm, with 30± turkey buildings. The buildings are being used for chickens, sheep, and storage. Mr. Bickler's desire is to split off the ten acres with the former house on it, sell the parcel, and build a new house for himself. In response to a question from Chairman Harbert as to the use of the other nine acres of the parcel, Mr. VanBuskirk said it would be dryland pasture. He said at present there is some dryland grass on that parcel. Ms. Adler said the parcel is not being irrigated at the present time. Bruce Barker, County Attorney, read the minutes from the meeting on April 21, 1993 concerning Mr. Bickler possibly splitting and sharing his water rights. Mr. VanBuskirk said there are two wells on the existing 80 acres. Ms. Adler said the applicant stated in the application he intends to drill a new well. In response to a question from Chairman Harbert, Ms. Adler agreed a new Condition should be added requiring a domestic well. After further discussion, Ms. Adler said if the Board's desire is to require a new well, Condition of Approval #4 would no longer be appropriate and should be removed or rewritten. After further discussion, Mr. VanBuskirk again stated it is not feasible to irrigate this parcel, and a dryland pasture is the most appropriate use. Commissioner Baxter moved to approve Recorded Exemption #1481, including Conditions of Approval as recommended by staff. Mr. Barker suggested altering Condition of Approval #4 so the last part reads: "The domestic well on Lot A of Recorded Exemption 1481 is to be used for household purposes inside one single-family dwelling, the watering of domestic animals, and the irrigation of up to 13, 000 square feet of home lawns and gardens. " Commissioner Baxter agreed to include the altered Condition #4 in his motion. Seconded by Commissioner Kirkmeyer, the motion carried unanimously.
