• Will City takeover the irrigation?
Burch: The existing pump and system has been there a number of years. Pump station is half
way in between Hawthorne Road & Dell Road. Should still be able to service the lots.
Comments from City Staff:
Burch: Lot to depth ration is not an issue to City staff.
Their park requirement is less than the minimum park standard so they will be doing cash in
lieu.
Lot 7 will be a dedicated right of way for Hawthorne Road.
