IMMEDIATE SERVICE AREA LINE CHANGE TO INCLUDE THE SCHOOL
DISTRICT #728 PROPERTY. Bob Kirmis explained that the School
District property currently lies in the Long Range Urban

line be adjusted to include the School District property and
the SA AG property as well in the Immediate Urban Service
Area. NAC has recommended approval subject to three findings
from NRC's Report of October 13, 1992 (File 176.02 - 92-20)
1. The land is within the long range urban service
area.
2. The City Engineer has indicated that the area may b�
adequately served by future sanitary sewer.
3. The land does not qualify as a premature development
in that:
a. The land holds adequate stormwater drainage
capacity.

C. Adequate roads serve the property.
d. The site holds the ability to accommodate a
safe sewage disposal system.
