lb,e,3b,c,l6; Development of an additional homesite on the property
will result in some disruption, displacement, compaction, and
overcovering of the: soil, which could lead to increased runoff and
changes .in drainage patterns. Thelack of well defined drainage ways
In, the Durham area leads to occasional localized flooding as a result
of increased runoff. A permanent solution to drainage for the entire
Durham area should be developed. Lacking such a solution each
individual project should be made responsible for insuring that storm
water runoff from the property does net cause flooding for other,
properties in the area.
le: The existing parcel is located on soils of exta:llent agricultural
capability, but is already too small to support economically Viablo
agricultural uses. The further subdivision of the property will mare
