If not installed immediately, an alternative financial agreement with the City will be entered into. 3. Provide sanitary sewer service to four of the houses on South Briarbend Loop. 4. Change the 4" water main in the cul-de-sac to a 6" water main. 5. The two easements from Briarbend Loop to the north have never been dedicated to the City of Beaumont.

Also pending before the Planning Commission is a zone change from RS to RM-M for this property. The property is located north of Sienna Trails Subdivision. The subdivision will be developed with patio style homes for rental with the potential in future years of replatting individual lots for sale. This item was sent to all interested parties. In addition to the aforementioned conditions from Water Utilities, that department further states that they will review the water and sanitary sewer design in detail when the preliminary construction plans are submitted and will address any additional comments at that time.
