Board waives detention requirement for single‑family build on J.S. McCarty Arm with future subdividing condition
Summary
The Board approved a variance for Matthew and Angela Moller at 13637 E. State Road 38 to exempt a single‑family home (and associated disturbances) from standard stormwater detention requirements, conditioned on requiring compliance if the parcel is later subdivided.
The Hamilton County Drainage Board on June 8 approved a variance allowing construction of a single‑family home and associated features on the John S. McCarty Arm of the William Lehr Drain without meeting standard detention release‑rate requirements.
Staff presented the application filed by Matthew and Angela Moller for parcel 12‑11‑02‑00‑00‑015.003 (13637 East State Road 38). The current stormwater standard limits post‑development release rates for disturbed land of one acre or more. The petitioner argued that detention requirements designed for larger developments are excessive for a single‑family residence; the staff report recommended approval with the explicit condition that any future subdividing of the parcel would trigger full compliance with applicable codes and standards and include the land disturbance from this approval in any overall disturbance calculation.
Dillinger moved to approve the variance and Heirbrandt seconded; the motion carried unanimously.
The approval applies to the single‑family construction described in the staff report; future subdivision will require compliance with the Stormwater Management Technical Standards and Hamilton County Code Section 36‑9‑27‑17(g).
