NEW BUSINESS: 

1.      Final Plat Review and Approval of Bridgewater Subdivision, Phase 5.   The proposed subdivision is located on the west side of Quacco Road south of Bridgewater Subdivision and contains 43 lots with associated roads and utilities.  Commissioner Charles Archer is concerned about the residents of this subdivision not having access to the amenities and the size of the amenities package.  Chairman Debbie Ryan Watts stated that the city cannot dictate the size of the amenities package in a subdivision.  Commissioner Don Taylor stated the board is reviewing the final plat of Bridgewater Subdivision, Phase 5 and the issues regarding amenities and lagoons should have been addressed during the preliminary construction plan review. Commissioner Dennis Jones questioned the wetlands encroachment into lots 18, 19 and 43.  Commissioner Don Taylor stated he felt the wetlands were mitigated in these areas.  The board questioned if sidewalks were required in front of lots 38 thru 43.  Following some discussion regarding Quacco Road being an arterial road, Wilson Roberts made a motion to recommend approval of the final plat of Bridgewater Subdivision, Phase 5 contingent upon mitigation of the wetlands on lots 18, 19, and 43 being reflected on the plat and sidewalks being added in front of lots 38 thru 43.  Motion was seconded by Dennis Jones and passed without opposition.        

There being no further business to come before the board, a motion of adjournment was made by Tim Lovezzola and seconded by Dennis Jones.
