The subdivision regulations require easements at least twelve (12) fect wide centered on lot lines for drainage and utilities to be dedicated to tbe city.

This will be cvaluated in conjunction with the building permit application when Parcel B is developed. 7. Utilities. Thc lots can be scrvcd with sanitary sewer and water service from existing utilities. 8. Access. Parcel A would maintain its access on Ncw Brighton Road.
