The Engineering Department is in the process of finalizing the plans and specifications for the construction of
an approximately 175 foot box culvert between Lots 20 and 21,Block B of the Fifth Section of North Lake
Woodlands (149 and 153 Meadowcreek Drive) as identified in our Storm Water Management Plan. When
this property was platted, a 20-foot drainage easement was platted along the common property line.
However, over time the drainage way has eroded and meandered in such a way that the current location of
the 20-foot drainage easement is not conducive to the installation of the box culvert. Therefore, property
owners at 149 and 153 Meadowcreek Drive have been asked to dedicate drainage easements in the alignment
of the proposed box culvert. This will make the 20-foot drainage easement dedicated with the plat
unnecessary. Therefore, we are abandoning the entire easement as platted and the property owners are
dedicating a new easement. Both property owners have agreed to the dedication of a new drainage easement.
Staff will be available to answer any questions at the Council meeting.
