LEGAL NOTICE BLACIC FLOODPLAIN DEVELOPMENT PERMIT & VARIANCE REQUEST Ron and Kathy Blacic have submitted a floodplain development permit application and a variance request for development located within the 100-year floodplain associated with Post Creek along Dublin Gulch Road. Development of the property initially took place prior to FEMA's flood insurance rate map (FIRM) being adopted by Lake County. However, after the FIRM was adopted by the county, additional development of the property was conducted by previous owners without obtaining a floodplain development permit. The current owners are requesting permit approval for post-FIRM structures constructed by the previous owners which include an attached garage with upper level living quarters, a detached garage, woodshed, greenhouse, utilities, propane tank, a berm water/diversion, and miscellaneous landscaping. The applicants are proposing, where necessary, to modify the existing improvements so they will be reasonably safe in the event of a 100-year event. This includes removal of some improvements and flood proofing of other improvements, bringing them into compliance with county floodplain regulations. The exception to this is in regard to the variance being requested to allow existing non-flood resistant building materials to remain in the attached garage less than 2 feet above the base flood elevation. The applicants have also applied to install a new septic system which includes a raised mound drainfield located within the conveyance shadow of the existing residence. The subject properties are legally described as a portion of the SESE of section 22, further described on Deed Exhibit H-799, and a portion of SWSW of section 23, further described on Deed Exhibit H-807, both located within T19N and R20W. Information regarding the proposal is available via the Lake County Planning Dept. All written and verbal comments are welcome and will be considered. The deadline to submit comments is April 16, 2021. Comments may be mailed to: Lake County Planning Dept., 106 Fourth Ave East, Polson, MT 59860; or faxed: 406-883-7205; or e-mailed: planning@lakemt.gov Published on April 1, 2021. MNAXLP
