COMMISSION LOOKS AT EAW FOR ROOSEVELT LAKE PROJECT

The Emily Planning and Zoning commission will take a look at the preliminary survey for a 48-lot housing development tonight. Emily City Planner Chuck Marohn will present an environmental assessment worksheet for the Northern Lights over Roosevelt Lake project. After review, the report will be forwarded on to the state's Environmental Quality Board where it will be open for public comment for thirty days. The city council had ordered the EAW for the project in July after a 231-signature petition stopped the project. Each of the 48 lots on the property would have a septic system and well. Tonight's meeting starts at seven at the Emily City Hall.
