Final Development Plan leo. DP 943013 DeBolt Civil Engineering, Applicant John. and Charlene Weber, Owners 1995 Lackland Drive Dear Dennis. Can September 1, 1998, the Board of Supervisors followed your recommendation and approved a third one-year extension of Final Development Flan County File No.DP 94301.3 allowing for a second residence at the 1995 Lackland Drive property. A copy of the Board Order is attached for your convenience. Since the last extension was granted, construction of the primary residence has been well underway. However,given the size and complexity ofthe project it will likely take two more construction seasons to complete. As we have stated before and for obvious reasons, the Webers do not intend to commence construction of the second residence on the property until the primary residence has been at least substantially completed. The primary residence is being constructed as the home the Webers intend to occupy. Please consider this letter a request for another one-year extension of the Final Development Flan and to commence construction of the second residence. If your staff has any questions or requires any additional information in order for you to recommend to the Board of Supervisors that it approve this request for a one-year extension., then please let me know. Dennis M. Barry, AICD April 28, 1999 Page 2 Per my last extension request letter, the extension request fee was $165.00. I understand from Donna Allen that fee has been increased to $200.00. Enclosed is a check in that amount. 'Thank you for your assistance. Very truly yours, F ttti Mark L. Armstrong MLA/svg Enclosures cc: John and.Charlene Weber(w/encl.) Gene DeBolt (w/encl.)
