July 31, 1991 River Bluffs Engineer's Review the vicinity of Lots 8 and 9 of Block 1 along the river. These two lots in particular should be reviewed by a qualified soil tester and an opinion given on the probability of finding a suitable area for soil absorbtion systems. /'Street Layout and Transportation. The most significant objection to previous subdivision /plans has concerned this topic. The plan as currently propos~ does provide two means of I access to the plat and its two cul-de-sacs are within the maximum length allowed by City . C_rode. The plan, however, does neglect to connect with a dedicated and improved stub of ~...u~!per Ridge Drive which abuts the plat on its west boundary. Connection of this street ~}f would, of course, provide a beneficial third point of access to the subdivision. In addition, 'r~l~ it would provide a shorter travel distance from the intersection of Juniper Ridg~D-r'iv~"h~6 i - i53~d _~_Sriu~-t6'i)oints Southeast al0n~HighWay g47.
