#2480 - Spring Hill - Prelim. Plat May 7,1999 Page 4 A rail £a»ciUcut The Trail Agreement (Exhibit E) in Item 1 indicates that Spring Hill will grant to the City an expansion of right-of-way for the trail along Spring Hill Road and Tamarack Drive. These dedications are not shown on the plat, and unless shown as expanded right-of-way, would not be accepted by the County on the plat drawings. The County normally does not allow easements to appear on plats except for right-of-ways or for drainage/wetlands/utilities. Assuming that the City will ultunately come to a final conclusion on the trail locations, the easement for the portions of such trail within Spring Hill's boundaries can be created by either of 2 options: 1. Dedication as additional road right-of-way on the plat; or 2. Granted by metes and bounds description in a separate trail easement document. The attached resolution assumes that option 2 will prevail. If Council wishes to have the right-of- ways of Tamarack and Spring Hill widened within this plat, then the language of the attached preliminary plat approval resolution will have to be revised. ^ ^(frtSX" Staff Recommendation Staff reconunends approval of the proposed plat subject to: 1 l 1.Creation of Outlots A and B as unbuildable property outside the intended Club boundaries; ownership of such outlots may be transferred only to an owner of adjacent land and only when legally combined with that adjacent land. 2.Dedication of rights-of-way for Spring Hill Road, Tamarack Drive and Hunter Drive as shown. 3. Council to provide direction regarding County request for dedication of additional right-of- way along County Road 6 portions of the plat. Staff recommends no additional dedication. 4. On final plat, show the wetland on Outlot B. 5.Execution of a conservation and flowage easement over all wetlands shown on the plat, and vacation of the existing easements at the south end of the site.
