Review of technical requirements of the subdivision plat and
PUD plan.
Acting Chairman Adams stated the public hearing has been closed,
letters received since that time will be referred to the City
Council public hearing. Further clarified the point, the re-
quest is not for rezoning but a project covered under the sub-
division regulations.
Applicant pointed out on the preliminary plat where the perman-
ent corner monuments have been placed and the names of the re-
maining adjacent property owners which were not on the plat
when it was submitted. City Engineer reported the placement
of utility easements, water, electric, gas, meet with the
approval of the City. Escrow money will be set aside for side-
walks, curbs and gutters that will follow phase 3 of the devel-
opment. Possibility an agreement could be reached wi~h the City
that the money for curb and gutter could be used for landscaping.
Engineer Ellis reported there would be 2 hydrants located on
the site, Cities water plan calls for a 12" main on Ute Avenue
which would serve this project. Developer would be responsible
for the tap off the main and lines within the project and 2
hydrants.
Drainage
Discussed a catch basin being located on the site until such
time as the City has a storm sewer system constructed. During
the 1st phase this would not be too much of a problem, problem
will exist at the time the project is completed. Mr. Ellis
reported the developer will have to pay for treatment of the
run-off, estimate of cost is not available at this time.
Anthos Jordan arrived.
Applicant reported the 10' strip along the Ute Avenue would be
deeded to the City per agreement between 6/1/75 and 6/1/78 for

deeded to the City at no cost to the City.
Mr. Bartel reported the City will need a committment from the
applicant that if and when any improvement district is formed
in this area, the owners will participate in that district, i.e.
street paving, storm sewer district.

ings is 27.6'.
