The subdivision development property is identified on Tax Map 52O Group B as Parcels 9.00, 17.00 and 18.00 and consists of approximately 13.47 acres.

Adjacent properties also fronting East Spring Street are zoned CL for a portion of the parcels, with the remainder zoned RS- 20. Lots 1-3 will have frontage on East Spring Street and the plat shows the existing right- of-way is 66 feet; therefore no additional property dedication for right-of-way is required. However, the recently constructed turn lane on East Spring Street in front of the property should be depicted on the plat. The lots will be served by the existing 10 inch waterline located in the street right-of-way. There is an existing fire hydrant located in the right-of- way in front of the proposed Tract 1 that will provide coverage for fire protection for Tracts 1 and 2. Hydrants for Tract 3 will be indicated on the Copper Springs Phase III Preliminary Plat. Tract 4 will only be accessed via the street frontage on Rockwell Drive. Sewer and water will also only be available to Tract 4 from lines located in the right-of- way of Rockwell Drive. New water and sewer lines, fire hydrants and sidewalks etc. will be shown on a future plat when Lot 4 is developed for single-family residential purposes. Sewer is available to Tract 3 via a 20 feet wide sewer easement along the eastern property boundary. A 20 feet wide sewer easement must be added to the plat to provide sewer access to Tracts 1 and 2. In addition, a utility and access easement must be provided between Tract 1 and Lot 1 of the Copper Springs Phase I Subdivision Plat to provide for connection to Tract 3. New sidewalks along East Spring Street have already been installed and should be shown on the plat. No areas of the parcels are shown on FIRM # 47141C0140D as being within a FEMA designated Special Flood Hazard Area.
