Larry Clayton of Kid's Company presented his concern for an official
interpretation that his interests were best served in building on
his property on Fourth Street.City Engineer Buffington addressed
his question in stating that it is not felt that it is reasonable
or practical for the City of Waukee to require final grading on
individual subdivision lots in Waukee.The final grading require-
ments must fall upon the purchaser of their lot as needed.

The amendment to Chapter 303 regarding detention methods of storm
water control was discussed by Roger Buffington.His feeling that
this amendment addition to Section 1,Section 303.164 was not nec-
essary because it was covered in the original Waukee Regulations.
Moved by Foster,second by Casey,not to adopt the ordinance change
that was proposed for Section 303.164 because current regulation
code can be interpreted to cover the City of Waukee's needs.Motion
carried.
