The proposed Plans provide for the construction of Highland Meadows East 2nd Addition, located south of the intersection of 79th Avenue at Nancy Drive. The project essentially will include the extension of a private drive (cul -de -sac) extending south and westerly from the intersection into the property and serving an area of 3.5 acres with 18 proposed residential dwelling units. This property was originally included within the bounds of a larger Highland Meadows East grading and drainage plan (encompassing 4.9 acres), reviewed and approved in 1999. This 2nd Addition portion was previously described as Outlot A (future multi- family) under the original approval. Grading and Drainage Comments 1. At the time of the initial approval, 4 new single family residential properties were constructed along the south side of 79th Avenue. A drainage pond was also constructed within the Outlot A area to serve the entire 4.9 acres of property, including Outlot A. This pond was originally designed to discharge to the adjacent property to the west (Highland Meadows). The original Highland Meadows site was designed to accept this drainage, and both plans (Highland Meadows and Highland Meadows East) were approved by the Rice Creek Watershed District. However, as a result of modifications to the original grading plan, a permit application to RCWD has been re- submitted, and a CAPROC has been received. All conditions and requirements of the RCWD shall be completed as required prior to commencement of grading. -62 An Employee Owned Company Frouiuung Affirmative Action and Equal Opportunity
