• Speiser Acres Page 4 Wetlands: Wetlands are delineated within Lots 1 and 2 of the proposed preliminary plat. Drainage and utility easements cover those wetland areas. The project does not include any wetland impacts. Park Dedication: The current subdivision ordinance includes park dedication requirements, as adopted in 2001. Park dedication is $1665 per residential unit, less any land dedication. There is no land dedication needed, so the park dedication will be $1665. An existing trail on the north side of Birch Street adjacent to lots 2 and 3 of the proposed preliminary plat will not be affect by the proposed preliminary plat as it lies within the Birch Street right -of -way. Utilities: The new dwelling proposed to be built on Lot 2 will be required to connect to city sewer and water as a part of this request. The existing house included in Lot 3 of the proposed plat is not connected to city utilities, however it will be required to connect when the on -site septic system fails. Grading and Drainage: Easements are required adjacent to property lines (5 feet side -yard and 10 feet front and rear- yards). The plan is also subject to review and approval from the Rice Creek Watershed District. ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD The Environmental Board reviewed the project at the August 25, 2004 meeting.
