SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE COMMENT:

gave a brief description of the plat.
The main topic of discussion was the Zanzibar Street issue.
Solutions to the existing situation were discussed. These
included dedicating new right-of-way at the existing street
location, abandoning the old right-of-way and constructing a
gravel T-turnaround at the end of the street.
The Committee asked Mr. McGetrick to locate the owner of the
property where the existing Zanzibar Street is located and
determine if new right-of-way can be dedicated. The Committee
asked Mr. McGetrick to try and resolve this issue prior to the

After a brief discussion, the Committee accepted the presentation
and forwarded the issue to the full Commission for final action.
