Caledonia—Final Plat
Engineering comments
1) John Whitehouse stated that the storm water on the site will be affected, as work is
continuing on Raymond overflow and floodway mapping
2) There will be a one to one compensatory storage ratio modification,with a narrative
to be given for compliance.
3) Regarding the final plat, a) SBC easement will be noted on the plat and note if it
needs to be re-routed; b) there is an additional one acre (park site) of property attached
to the four acres of property and a 15-acre in the southwest corner. When the plat is
resubmitted there should be surveys included for these two parcels. These should be
conveyed separately from the plat and legal descriptions included. The deed language
will be shown on the final plat and the legal dedication of boundaries. When construction
improvements are completed, the land will be conveyed to the City. Dedication of the
15-acre site will be shown on the final plat, and grading needs to be shown, and
management of the plan will be shown on the landscape plan.
4) Final plat should be approved subject to the staff comments before the Plan
Commission, as there may be some storm water easement modifications from the
Raymond overflow swale 1. Lots will not be affected.
5) The Rob Roy Creek easement for the interceptor flows through the 15-acre site.
6) Regarding#14, there is a 440 ft. wide piece of property east of Caledonia and east of
that, Comeils Rd. which is a part of Westbury, the developers will build the road. Mr.
Whitehouse stated that the City will prepare the dedications or confirm the easement
rights, then the developers can determine which contractor they use. Mr. Fiascone stated
his agreement with the $2000 fee for road improvements, only if the road adjoins their
1
property. Mr. Whitehouse and Mr. Fiascone agreed that the Comeils Rd. improvements
adjacent to the Caledonia subdivision would be Caledonia's responsibility.
7) Mr. Whitehouse stated the Rt. 47 water main has been installed, which runs through
the subdivision.
8) YBSD construction is anticipated to begin in late May.
Mike Schoppe comments
1) Mike Mondus stated ownership of lot D will be the park, Lots A, B and C will be
owned by the homeowners association. Easement questions would be better addressed
by the director of YBSD. Twenty
2) A pitch of 2%with a four foot cover was okayed on the 4-acre site. In the 66' strip
on out lot C, bike trail language can be added, calling out the 30' YBSD easements.
There is no dollar amount attached to this Lot. The existing easements should be added to
the out lots.
3) Lot B should be noted it is for storm water overflow management. It should be noted
that the City wants to own this. Spaceco will do some landscaping prior to the
acceptance of the property. The City is looking for a landscape buffer easement and a
storm water easement over the entire piece. The homeowners association will retain
ownership.
4) The PUD agreement states the minimum side yard setback is 7.5 %
5) Anna Kurtzman need documentation on the lot listed on the curves.

Grande Reserve Unit 10 Preliminary/Final Plat (10:40a.m.)
Anna Kurtzman comments
1) There was discussion on the clarity of the front, rear and side yards and clarity for the
zoning purposes. Ms. Kurtzman stated that the setback for the overall building from the
main lot and the building separations are based on how the buildings are oriented.
2) The developer will supply a geometric base sheet for all units, designating side, rear
and front yards with a table supplied. Designated will be a 20' side to side minimum,
with a note on the plat to refer to the engineering plan attachments before issuing
building permit is issued.
3) Primarily, four lots are at issue: 3020 (front is Litchfield), 3021 (Grand Trail is the
front) and 3018 (front yard is Matlock) , and 3022 ( front yard is Matlock). The side
yards will be 20' which abut the street, and the rear yards need to be 30".
4) A table will be kept and no footprints are needed on the plats, and this will be an
attachment to the engineering plans.
Engineering comments

Swanson Lane Estates—Preliminary/Final Plat (11:20 a.m.)
Mike Schoppe comments
1) Mr. Schoppe is asking that Parcel A be a separate lot, conveying as a non-buildable
lot. Mr. Swanson would own the lot, and convey to the property owner he wishes or to
the home owner's association. Ownership should be noted.
2) The conservation easement language should be noted on the plat, and who the
easement is being granted to. The City prefers it be conferred to a 3rd party, rather than
the homeowner's association. The City does not want the association to transfer
ownership of a possible bike trail. Laura wants assurance that this area will be protected
as part of the Blackberry Creek preservation plan.
3) New detailed landscape plans will be submitted to the clerk's office, per Mr.
Kopecky.
Engineering comments
1) The words "preliminary and" should be eliminated from the title of the document.
2) Floodplain management will be designed per Mr. Kopecky for the conservation
easement. Conservation management and floodplain management easements need to be

titled separately, so, if separate entities have titles they would each get an easement
management rights.
3) The county engineer's certificated does not need to be added to the plat per John
Whitehouse.
4) Mr. Kopecky stated saw cuts will be made into road to show linkage and check the
road for substructure. If additional improvement is needed, under layment may be
recommended during a later season. Language needs to be added in the annexation
agreement.
5) The developer is requesting 16' as a width of Boomer Lane. Arguments given were
for saving the trees in the area, and Mr. Fairfield was unable to give an opinion because
he did not know the placement of the trees. Mr. Fairfield was giving a CAD drawing of
the trees by the developer. The Fire Department will do a site visit and make a written
recommendation to the City.
