1. PROPOSED PRELIMLNARY PLAT: P.S. �k69-01, BRENTWOOD_ESTATES, THOMAS R. SWANSON:
The rear 431.6 feet of Lot 35 and rear 401.9 feet of Lot 33, Revised Auditor's
Subdivision No. 77. (Approximately 2.5 acres) Owner: Mrs. Edith Aale.
Mr. Swanson was present to represent the petitioner.
Darrel Clark explained that this area was studied as early as 1961 and
that at that time, the east-west street (72nd Way) right of way was set
at 50 feet and was approved by the District No. 14 School Board. However,
no easements have been acquired from them to date. Also in 1961, a street
plan was approved that is the same as the preliminary plat we are now
rev iewing .
The 72nd Way right of way was again discussed in 1966 with reference
to a proposed house to be built on Lot 3, Block l, Mississippi View Addition.
At that time the minutes indicated that a total right of way for 72nd Way
could be narrowed to 40 feet. In the plat of Riverwood Manor, 30 feet was
dedicated leaving 10 feet to come from the north of which 9 feet has already
been dedicated leaving 1 foot more yet to be acquired from Lot 3. The owner
of this lot, Gordon Sangster, was in today and explained that he would give
the additional foot or two needed to bring the total to 40 feet.
I spoke with Jim Hedren of School District �k14 by phone and he indicated
he thought the school would be agreeable to dedicate property for some
additional right of way and Council is meeting with the school board next
Monday and will discuss this further at that time.
It was also mentioned that the feeling in the past was to close off the
access to East River Road as it enters on a curve and, therefore, is hazardous
to negotiate.
Mr. Swanson presented his proposed plat and when asked whether adjoining
property owners were in agreement with this proposal, stated that the owner
of Lot 34 was against the plat and that the owner of Lot 31 wanted to sell
his property to him.
The Subcommittee noted that street right of way would be necessary from
properties outside the area being platted. The Subcommittee also saw need
for a utility easement to be extended from the cul de sac to East River Road
Plats & Subs.-Str. & Util. Mtg. - February 6, 1969 Pa�e 2
in order to loop the watermain and extend sewer service to the two existing
dwellings on East River Road.

with the stipulation that a 20 foot utility easement be provided from the
cul de sac to East River Road. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion
carxied unanimously.
The Subcom�ittee again noted that street right of way outside zhis plat
would be necessary for lots in this plat to gain public access.
