[5:21] planning. The park and looks
like we have miss Vickers here
[5:24] to talk to us about white
horses states.
[5:27] >> Good morning commissioners.
[5:30] All right. Today we have white
hearse estate second filing,
[5:33] which is the 13 lot residential
subdivision that sound real
[5:37] residential one, which is one
acre to 2.9 acre, lots. This is
[5:42] located west of South 40th
Street West and North the past
[5:45] for road the property or the
developer is asking for 3
[5:50] variances today. One for a 40
foot of right of way to match
[5:54] South 52nd Street West. If that
one is granted, then we would
[5:58] need to grant the second
request which are beat up pave
[6:01] 24 foot of pavement within the
40 foot right of way. And then
[6:06] the 3rd one is regarding no
access strips on the access for
[6:10] the internal subdivision.
Lots. So that would be one
[6:13] clarification.
[6:18] >> Just to build a 24 foot wide
road
[6:21] instead of the 44 foot wide.
[6:24] >> Correct. Yeah. 24 foot of
pavement with and a 40 foot
[6:27] right of way. Absolutely.
So the subdivision has 9
[6:31] conditions of approval that are
fairly standard conditions of
[6:33] approval water, right.
Disposition getting DQ approval
[6:37] for water, septic and storm
water as well as our sadie's
[6:42] for maintenance of the roads
parkland for cash and loose.
[6:46] In this case, we're not doing a
parkland indication. We're
[6:48] doing cash in lieu of parkland
and then obtaining a weed
[6:51] management plan are the
highlights there.
[6:54] >> Are there any questions that
you have for me. I know we
[6:56] always talk about this, but
just so the public understands
[6:59] the cash in lieu of
[7:01] parkland actually goes into the
park district, a county Park
[7:05] district that that since the
severe think district 2.
[7:08] One cannot tell what it is
stuck. That's Kirk. Thank you.
