Consideration of Final Plat, Pheasant Hills Preserve East - Ms. Wyland used the overhead projector and noted the location of this plat. The preliminary plat for Pheasant Hills Preserve East was approved by the City Council in April, 1994. The plat created four (4) lots, one containing an existing home, the other three (3) lots fronting on Sherman Lake Road. The property was rezoned to R -1X and is currently located within the MUSA boundary. A development agreement was signed in August, 1994 and utilities installed and assessed to the property.
