RE: CF -89 -119
GREATER EASTSIDE SEWER SEPARATION
The public hearing for the Community focus Fund grant CF89 -119
was held on May 29, 1990, at 7:OOPM in the Greencastle City Hall,
prior to the Plan Commission meeting. Mayor Michael Harmless
called the meeting to order. In attendance were:
Mayor Michael Harmless
Eric Bernsee, Greencastle Banner Graphic
Judith Berry, Clerk Treasurer
Michael Shaver, consultant
Charles Miles, Plan Commission
Dr. Boyd Knuppel, Greater Eastside landowner
Jean Dunn, Greater Eastside resident

The project was outlined briefly and the projected
environmental impacts were discussed along with the fact that the
preliminary Finding of No significant Impact has been reached.
Eric Bernsee, reporter, stated "you're dealing with inconvenience
versus long term negative environmental impacts," with regard to
the environmental assessment. Note was made that noise from
construction equipment would be limited by restricting work to
daylight hours, efforts would be made to hold down dust, and
erosion control had been discussed with the design engineer and
would be included in the project.
Dr. Knuppel asked that we be aware that drainage at 1st and B
Streets runs to the northwest and asks if the law allows the
drainage to be changed. Mayor Harmless indicates that the Greater
Eastside project will not seek to change natural drainage patterns
and that flows toward SR240 will be handled by the new highway
project. Dr. Knuppel asked to work with the city on ways to
improve drainage flow between B and C Streets near 10th. His
telephone number is 653 -3918 and Mr. Shaver will give his phone
number to the design engineer so that they can discuss the issue
further.
Jean Dunn, Greater Eastside resident asked for the project to
be explained as she came late. Mr. Shaver explained the project
and showed her the environmental assessment until the project was
clear to her.
The meeting was adjourned at 7:28 p.m.
