(1) Construction plans for street, water and drainage
facilities should be submitted for the City's approval, prior
to approval of the plat.

creek. (The previous calculations were inaccurate and were to
be re -submitted.)
(3) A 25' building limit line should be established for
Lots 5 x 6 along Austin Street.
(4) An additional 10 feet of right-of-way is needed on
Austin Street.
(5) The flood limits should be shown on the plat and the
area subject to flooding should be included in a drainage
easement.
(6) A 20 foot wide utility easement should be dedicated
along the creek for a future sewer line.
Discussion followed regarding these points. No. 1 would follow
County Road specifications and the Council would need to grant
a variance. No. 4 was omitted. (Council failed to require
additional easement on Westside Industrial Subdivision) resulting
to this exclusion. No. 5 - Parrent stated the City Ordinance_
does not include the flooding. On Phase I, however, if the

be willing to give sewer easement on Phase II - not Phase I.
