Tyre motion died far lack of a second. Further discussion ensued and the Planning Director was asked for his recommendation regarding this plat. Ervin Dobson stated that his recommendation was that since the road was longer than a cul-de-sac, it did constitute a dead end road. He stated that there could be problems with transportation in the future which might out-weight the environmental concerns and that the Class A road would not be a bad recommendation. He spoke in favor of the lots amendment and that they be incorporated into the motion.
