2) Miller Markus Luck is the project architect and is representing this application on behalf of the
owners.
Markus Luck stated that the pool is 16’x 8’. He stated that the site is covered by several large
trees but only one tree is planned to be removed. He stated that the main concerns are the view
shed, the potential construction erosion and post construction runoff. He stated that the original
plan proposed a larger pool and a spa but the revised plan reduces the size of the pool and
eliminates the spa. He stated that native vegetation would be used to stabilize the slope. He
reviewed the planting plan.

�The Chair stated that screening would have to be used.
Markus Luck responded that the applicants would install screening to reduce the visual impacts
of the retaining wall.
Markus Luck spoke about the erosion during construction. He stated that a double silt fence
would be used to control erosion.
Don Stever asked for clarification on the silt fence. He asked if hay bales would be used.
Markus Luck responded that a geo fabric would be used along with hay bales.
Don Stever stated that the Village spent monies to dredge the pond and extra measures should
be taken by the owners to protect it.
Terrence McGlynn asked about the possibility of chlorinated water entering the lake.
Markus Luck responded that the Village Engineer proposed a drywell to offset any spillage
from usage or heavy rainfall.
The Chair asked the applicant to explain the impacts to the wetlands specifically the substrate
composition.
Marcus Luck responded that the soil is bound to be compacted because of the construction.
There was an open discussion on the sensitivity of the wetlands.
Don Stever stated that the lake is at elevation 75-feet. He stated that the proposed location of
the pool does not appear to be located on an active vegetative wetland.
The Chair stated that if the wetlands are not impacted, then the application is not in the
Committee’s jurisdiction.
The Committee referred to the Village Architect.
Sean McCarthy responded that the property is within 100-feet of a wetland. He stated that the
proposed construction is within the 100-foot buffer.
Don Stever stated that if the applicant were mitigating the impacts sufficiently, then it would be
consistent.
Doug Maass further added that the Building Department needs to ensure that the construction of
the project not adversely affect the wetlands.
Sean McCarthy stated that when a retaining wall is constructed on a steep wall, special attention
is paid to the footings so that the wall is structurally sound.
The Chair stated that building department must be satisfied with the construction.
The Chair stated that three policies are applicable:
Policies 7(a), 11, 29(e)

management plan must be robust enough to withstand floodwaters.
The Chair stated that the proposed screening should be sufficient.
Don Stever stated that screening should be included in the site plan.
Doug Maass asked about policy 13 regarding erosion protection structures.
The Committee agreed that policy 13 is not applicable.
