Florida Land C anyto request for engineering approval of
Sections 3, 4,and 6 of the Terraces:
Cal Conklin am anted on the items he had reviewed and most
items have been resolved. A drainage easement was needed SamUst
east of the development in the area of the sewerage treatment
plant and on down Glee Creek. Mr. Conklin also mentioned that
the water plant was approaching its capacity and if we continue
to approve additional connections we are not going to be able
to meet the requirements of the fire flow. There should be
steps taken to provide additional capacity. Florida Land does
have plans to do that, and they should give some assurances
that by a certain time this plant will be available.
r -
The Lombardy ditch is an existing ditch that runs east and west.
Fla. Land is planning to widen and enlarge it to carry the water.
They have agreed to provide a maintenance strip, and if the ditch
is to remain the fence is needed. It is only a question of
whether it is to remain as an open ditch..
Mr. Reed siid there was no recorded easement, so they are drawing
up the necessary documents and will show them to our Attorney when
completed.
Well number three which is located in the Terrace area is com-
pleted and the capacity will be 1500 residential units, and should
be totally completed the latter part of duly, and in the Highlands
there will be a station with a capacity of 3,000 residential
units. Prior to any occupancy these plants will be completed.
Mr. Reed said hewould be glad to give the Council a letter of
reassurance to that effect.
A motion was made by Councilman Miller that the Zoning Board
does not recommend to the Council any piece of p roperty.that
has an open drainage ditch anywhere near it unless the

Sasser. Discussion. Motion carried.
