Page 4 several county regulations, the Council deferred action on this item until those discrepancies were resolved. Specifically, County regulations require that: 1. Lots which will be privately sewered must be not less than 40,000 square feet. Some lots within this subdivision are less than the minimum requirement. 2. Lots within flood plains must not be less than one acre and that there be a minimum of 40,000 square feet within each lot above the flood plain level. Several lots along the Willow Creek flood Plain do not meet these provisions. The plat has been approved by the County Board of Adjustment. The County Board of Adjustment has now approved variances to the discrepancies in the county regulations. All deficiencies and discrepancies have been corrected and the plat is now ready for Council approval. ACTION:411.

This it was deferred from the agenda of January 24, 1978, to allow (1) the applicant's attorney to respond to the legal staff's opinion, and (2) to enable the applicant the opportunity to meet with the contiguous land owner to the south to reach an agreement on the extension of Carver Street. This item is being placed on the agenda for discussion at the informal meeting. And, unless there is a resolution to the access i problem the Council is not expected to take any action on this item at the formal meeting.
