zoning ordinance, subdivision ordinance, and other requirements.

overburden the City's service capacity. Both water and sanitary sewer service are
available in Birch St. The systems have adequate capacity. The City and Rice Creek
Watershed District will ensure that stormwater management will comply with the
requirements of the City and the Watershed.
5. As part of the project approval, Bruggeman and the developer on the north side of
Birch have agreed to cooperate in the financing of improvements to the intersection,
