STAFF COMMENTS I RECOMMEND A TIONS
According to the Development Agreement, a dedication was to be made 30 feet in width from the
eastern end of Phase lOA as proposed and extending to the eastern limit of the owners property.
This dedication is. for the Access Road to the Carters Creek Wasterwater Treatment Plant and
replaces an earlier access easement.
Staff would prefer that this dedication be provided through one of the two plats under consideration,
to avoid the complications and extra efforts of a separate document dedication through our Legal
Department.
Staff recommends approval of both plats according to the conditions and comments listed in the
Presubmission Conference Report, and the added condition that the 30 foot wide dedication be
added to one of the plats.
