F. Gleich. lhe original plat was for 63 lots. The new plat extends north of Council Trail to Sha-Bonee Trail and now number 99 lots. Mr. Gleich also owns the adjoining property east of this land known as the Pleasant Heights subdivision of 72 lots, makir a total of 171 lots. The two plats would require a donation of' 2.9 acres for public use. The Pleasant Heights subdivision at present shows a piece of land 54 feet by 266 feet (14,364 sq. ft or approximately 1/3 acre of land. We suggest that this 1/3 acre be vacated in lieu of the arrangement suggested above. The 2.9 acres, therefore, is equivalent to the requirement for a south school, which was set aside for purchase by the School Board at the time of the original approval or Ellendale sub- division south or Lions Park. The School Board did not exercise its option on this property, but now will require the land for a school in the near future in view of the additional homes to be built in this area. The streets required must be in accordance with the new ordinances and it is our understanding that the School Board will also pave the streets adjacent to their proposed site. It is our recorr~endation that the proposed plat be approved subject to and in compliance with the Village Plan and Zoning Ordinance. Yours very truly, A. C. Dresser-Chairman E. H. Cleven-Secretary A motion was then made by Trustee Willer, seconded by Schlaver, that the plat be approved and the President and Villag Clerk be authorized to sign on behalf of the Village.
