B. Easements <br /> <br />Drainage and utility easements have been provided on each lot and over delineated wetland areas <br />in accordance with the requirements of the Subdivision Code. <br /> <br />C. Public Use Dedication <br /> <br />Staff has reviewed the files pertaining to this property and found documentation that the park <br />dedication requirements included in the Subdivision Code were satisfied in conjunction with the <br />original development of the site in 1973. No additional park dedication is required as a result of <br />this application. All utility and drainage easements will be dedicated to the public as required by <br />the Subdivision Code. <br /> <br />D. Grading <br /> <br />Minimal grading work is proposed in conjunction with the construction of the seasonal sales <br />area. This work will mainly include cutting into the existing bituminous pavement. Detailed <br />grading and erosion control plans, calculations, and permits will be required prior to any <br />construction on the site. <br /> <br />E. Utilities <br /> <br />No additional utility development is planned at this time. Any proposal to expand utilities will be <br />evaluated in conjunction with the proposed future phases of the Master PUD. Water and sanitary <br />stubs have already been provided to the building sites on Lot 2 and Lot 5. Existing utility <br />easements on the site will be maintained following the subdivision. <br /> <br /> <br />2.
