NORTII,.CAROLINA 28025 <br /> <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> <br /> TO: Mr. Charles McGinnis <br /> From: ;,/alter Odell/~,~ <br /> Date: March 16, 1988 <br /> <br /> Subject: Water Distribution System <br /> Southern Hills Phase 2 <br /> <br /> Reference is made to a letter dated March 10, 1988 <br /> from Mr. Robert G. Faggart, Jr. to Chairman Lentz. <br /> <br /> Current policy of the Water and Sewer District <br /> requires all water mains and accessories such <br /> as fire hydrants and meters to be installed within <br /> dedicated street rights of ways. In this case, <br /> the County Ordinance governing mobil home developments <br /> requires only a 20' right of way with a street width <br /> also of 20' The water mains can be installed within. <br /> the street, but the fire hydrants and meters can <br /> not. The first phase of this development was done' <br /> with standard right of way widths and created no <br /> problem. Therefore the most reasonable solution <br /> to the problem would be to require the developer to <br /> indicate on his dedicated plat and convey to the <br /> district a 10' easement on each side of the street <br /> for the installation, operation, and maintenance <br /> of a municipal water system as may be necessary. <br /> It should also be noted that this would be an exception <br /> to the policy and not a change, and consideration be <br /> taken on the part of the planning staff and board <br /> to help avoid this problem with future developments. <br /> <br /> <br />
