The ROW will be platted to the west <br />property line. <br />There is an existing blacktop road running north/south with a roadway easement. The street is Erkium <br />St NW. There is existing ROW on the southern end with an existing 60' CDS ROW, we will be increasing <br />this to a 65' Radius on the proposed development property. <br />Two variances are being requested, one for the temporary cds, due to the temporary length of the <br />future thru street. The second variance request is for the lot depth of the two lots on the east side of <br />the Erkium St NW, since we are proposing to keep the roadway in the current easement/roadway area. <br />4 <br />
