Council discussed the possibility <br />of participating in the cost involved. Clerk Administrator Barnes <br />stated that if the subdivision is granted, 40 feet should be dedicated <br />to the City, and that one foot of the 40 feet would be retained by Mr. <br />Brown in order that he could recover some of the watermain costs if <br />other lots develop in the future.
