Don Brown asked the Commission if they wanted a ten.foot easement
adjacent to the road right of way in Valley Oaks similar to the ten
foot!:easement in the Carrollton Addition. Through discussion it was
determined that the ten foot easement in the Carrollton Addition was
due to construction problems and that the Utility Commission will not
require an additional easement area for utility placement in future
plats.as the street right of way is more than adequate for utility
placement.

looping of lateral water lines in subdivisions. Valley Oaks water
layout was reviewed.
Motion by Jensen to require changes to the water system plans for
