Michele,
My comments are as follows:
1. The subdivision plan sheets need to show iron pins to be set at each corner, angle point, and curve
points.
2. 1 thought the sewer would be private, so the 20 foot sanitary sewer easement should be removed.
3. Why don't the property line for Lots 2 and 3 line up along the private road? Lot 3 is 10 feet closer
to the private road than Lot 2.
4. Why is there a sharp angle point in the property line for Lot 1 in the middle of the 150 foot HELCO
easement?
5. What is the meaning of the 2 dashed lines creating a rectangle in the south east parking area of
Lot 1 under the southern 3 overhead power lines
Thanks

frontage on the private road.
3. The front yard setback is 50 feet; side yard setback is 20 feet, and rear yard

when the lot is a part of a consolidated parcel.
4. The road configuration consists of a main entrance from Ellington Road

Road that will service all three properties. A sidewalk is shown on one side of the
street along the roadway. A public easement has been provided.
