4.The Town Planner’s letter of January 11,1973 pointed out
the three exceptions requested by Mr.Newton’s petition.
The Town Planner also advised the Coimnission that the ease
ment shown on the plat for the road encroachment should be
replaced by a dedicated right-of-way and that the storm
drainage,as platted,should be changed to include a pro
vision for drainage at the southeast corner of the sub
division.In addition to the above code requirements,
the Town Planner suggested the lack of adequate frontage
on Lots 7,8 and 10,combined with the logical locations
of building sites on these adjoining lots,produce an
undesirable density of homes on the perimeter of the
cul-de-sac.The Town Planner recommended that Lot 8 be
combined with Lot 7,and Lot 9 be combined with Lot 10.
The Town Planner also recommended a 20’wide right-of-way
street dedication be obtained from Lot 13,Little Prospect
Mountain Addition.
The Commission,the Newton’s,Mr.Brown and the Town Staff discussed the
pros and cons of the 20 foot street right-of-way needed from Mr.Kezer
at length.

Kezer.There was no second to the motion.Chairman Prosser ruled the
motion lost for the lack of a second.

preliminary plat of Park View Subdivision until such time as the 10 or
20 foot street right-of-way is resolved.Member Tregent seconded the
