Matthew Fore with Miller Engineer’s and Associates LLC, ap- peared before the board to discuss the request for Preliminary & Final Subdivision/Development Ap- proval for a Subdivision of property for Edward Payton III in an Agricultural (AG) Zoned located at 17883 Hwy 182 W, Baldwin, LA. He explained that the property that Mr. Payton owns is triangular in shape and he would like to subdivide the property to possibly sell the portion on the west side.
Mrs. LeBlanc ex- plained that the plat includes modifications of the subdivision standards due to not having a fire hydrant installed within the re- quired distance. She informed that she did receive letters from the water and sewer commission and the Town of Baldwin Fire Chief verifying that safety standards are met.
Mr. Fore ex- plained that a two (2) inch water riser was installed near point “A” to “J” as per the plat. He also stated that the distance be- tween the two points is approximately 444 ft., which would meet the 500 foot fire hydrant requirement. He explain-ed that the existing water line is too small to install a fire hydrant.
In reference to Mr. Lipari’s inquiry, Mr. Fore explained that the two (2) inch riser will supply water but not to the extent of a fire hydrant and that the location of the two (2) inch water rise will be indicated on the final plat.
Mrs. Darden made a motion to approve the re- quest for Preliminary & Final Subdivision/Development of property along with the modifications of subdivision standards to allow for alternative fire protection in leu of the required fire hydrants based on the verification letters from the water commission and local fire de- partment, indicating that an alternative method provides an acceptable level of fire protection, for Ed- ward Payton III in an Agricultural (AG) Zoned located at 17883 Hwy. 182 W., Baldwin, LA; Sec. 22 T14S R9E; Parcel Id# 1994844093.00 Lot Por No 2 Nucoso Simeca Et Al Part Per Plat VV 36274, Being Por Tract “ABCDEA” Per Plat 110 293433, Situated in Sec. 22 T14S R9E; Acq. 110 293450,
