FINAL PLAT 5.3Roseville’s Public Works Department staff have been working with the applicant to address the typical public needs related to easements as well as attending to details of sewer and water infrastructure. 5.4At its meeting of November 1, 2012 Roseville’s Parks and Recreation Commission reviewed the proposed against the park dedication requirements of PRELIMINARY PLAT §1103.07 of the City Code and recommended a dedication of cash in lieu of land. 6.0PC UBLICOMMENT The duly-noticed public hearing for this application was held by the Planning Commission on April 3, 2013; no one from the public was in attendance of the public hearing to comment on the proposal, but the draft minutes are included with this staff report as Attachment E.
