Mr. Dean Hodde, Texas National Surveying Company, presented the plat to the Commission. He discussed the portion of the plat that is proposed for dedication to the city. The proponent desires to develop only the corner portion of the property at this time, and therefore is granting to the City of Allen an easement on the portion of the floodplain that is recoverable. Mr. Keener stated that if the remainder of the property is developed, the city has the option to release this temporary easement. There is no time specification for the easement noted on the plat and the City Attorney has informed staff that since there is no time limit on this temporary easement, it in fact becomes a permanent easement. Commissioner Fulk questioned the differences from the plat provided in their packet and the one on display at this meeting. Mr. Hodde stated that the only difference is in the arrows that have been drawn for clarification. The temporary floodplain easement was discussed at length. Chairman Garcia stated that he questioned the need for the term "temporary." Mr. Keener stated that the easement is being provided in order that the city will have the right of use of the property until such time as the property is developed and the city desires to release the easement. Further discussion was held regarding the term "temporary," and it was suggest- ed that this word be removed from the plat. Mr. Hodde stated he would not have a problem with removing the term, but that the term was being used so that future commissioners might understand that it is intended to be of a temporary nature. Mr. Keener explained the flood plain plat process to the Commission. This plat will be forwarded to the City Council for acceptance of the floodplain. MOTION: Upon a motion by Commissioner Gallagher and a second by Commis- sioner Biggs, the Commission voted 6 FOR and 0 OPPOSED to accept the plat as presented with no changes.
