The road could be tilted to the north which will allow all road drainage to reach the <br />stormwater pond. <br />Render will also grant at no charge to those property owners who currently have rights to use <br />the old 16 foot easement, an easement over his new 16 foot road. The City will retain its right <br />to regulate private property access to public roads as it always has. but the City has not <br />been provided with any documentation by the neighboring property owners that the road as <br />approved by the City is an encroachment on their rights of access <br />GafFron stated Render will need to redraft an agreement outlining the conditions for review <br />and approval by the City Council. <br />Barrett, City Attorney, stated that was his recollection of the meeting as well, and was <br />interested in hearing whether this meet with Regan's approval <br />Regan commented he agrees with what GafFron has outlined as the agreement, noting he <br />never had the understanding that the road would be built within the e.xisting easement. <br />Render stated he thought the City had an easement over the property. <br />Mayor Jabbour inquired what the City Council thought of the agreement. <br />Flint stated he was fine with the proposed agreement. <br />Goetten indicated she does not have a problem with the agreement, noting Render is walling to <br />give up his land to make this agreement work. <br />Gaftron stated that Regan would like approval of this process so he can obtain a building <br />permit for his garage.
