hydrant will be installed at the end of the Spring Meadow Street right of way
and the second in the Prairie Wind Boulevard right of way.
The subdivision will be served from an existing twelve inch sanitary sewer main
which is located in an existing twenty foot utility easement. Development of the
lots will require installation, by the developer, of appropriate sized sanitary
sewer taps to serve each lot. The subdivision will be served from two street

Spring Meadow Street, a fifty foot local street. The extension of Spring Meadow
