Hi Chris, We have reviewed USR21-0014 to allow the construction of a second home on Lot 5, Block 1, Nelson Subdivision (2346 Appaloosa Ave). The applicant states they will use an existing well no. 180188 for one residence at a new well to be constructed under permit no. 85459-F for the second residence. The proposed uses by the applicant are consistent with the allowed uses on the permits. Our office has no comments on this proposal so long as the wells are used in accordance with their permitted conditions. Let me know if you have any questions.
