The subject property is generally located west of Warrior lane and north of the Waukee Family YMCA, containing approximately 17.39 acres. Mr. Kass advised this is the second and final phase of the Indi Run development containing 38 single family lots zoned R-2 (One and Two Family Residential).

Mr. Kass advised that it would more than likely be the J13 responsibility of the developer of that parcel to construct that particular public improvement.
