Richard Hiniker, representing Bill Wunderlich, discussed the revised survey and
what ultimately needs to be finalized. The main reason for the subdivision is the
sale of "Parcel C". McAllister inquired as to the status of the SUP for North

as a result of the subdivision. Mr. Hiniker agreed with that request as well as
dedication of a 66' easement along the entire southern boudary of the property.
