Description/Background:
The applicant, Magleby Construction, (representing the property owners Paul and Nichole Lambert), proposes to relocate a public utility easement to align with the location of a new water line service on the property at 11489 S Oberland Road. The applicant has worked with the Sandy Public Utilities Department to loop the water line from Rainbow Oaks Circle to Oberland Road, thereby creating the necessary fire flow to sustain future home improvements desired by the applicant. With this realignment of the water line, the applicant proposes to vacate the existing public utility easement and relocate the water line easement on the Rainbow Oaks P.U.D. Amended Plat.
For further details, see the staff report and exhibits.
