The location of the proposed single family dwelling is on the north- west corner of Polo Dr. and Banyan Road. Mr. Brandt, Code Enforcement Officer explained that due to the grade of the street being approximately 5'.below that of the proposed garage floor, the cars parked in the driveway would stand at a "tipped" angle unless the grade is leveled off. He proposes to fill the property to the top of the retaining wall. He pointed out that the drainage plan has been modified to retain the surface drainage on site for the first inch of rainfall. Regular Meeting and Public Hearing -August 1, 1990 page -2- Mrs. Orthwein stated that she is abstaining from participation in this matter due to the fact that she is related by marriage, being a sister- in-law to the applicant.
