service. It seems that the area in the development is served
by both utility companies, although primarily by Ozarks Electric.
However, Southwestern Electric stated they will need an easement
to get to other areas to the West which is necessary for them
to serve.
At this time, Mr. Wells Bone with Kelly Brothers and Mr. Jerry
Sonderegger with McGoodxin, Williams, & Yates arrived to discuss
the Centerbrook plat with the Committee, Rip Lindsey said that

as far as the utility easements within the proposed subdivision are
concerned they will be satisfactory, if the lots on the low side
can be served from the street. However, both Mr. Lindsey and CENTERBROOK SUBDIVISION
Mr. Tucker asked how they can get into this property from Highway
71. Southwestern Electric again offered to let the two companies
ride their overhead pole lines, Both companies stated they would
rather bury their lines. At this time, it is impossible to cross
Highway 71 By-pass and there are no phone facilities on Johnson
Road. They will have to be brought to the area, Mr. Bone was
asked if the developer would be willing to plat a 10 -foot, recorded,'
utility easement from Johnson Road across to the North of the
proposed subdivision, He stated they would. Mr. Holcomb stated
the minim,m, of the utility easement should be 5 feet per utility
in the easement. Mr. Bone stated they would be willing to widen
the easement on the center tier to 15 feet.
The utility representatives prepared to leave. Mr. Holcomb
said he would like to have a copy of the General Management plans.
All of the utility companies which serve Butterfield Addition
were given their copy of the final plat except Trane -Video. Trans -Video
will be given their copy later.
There was some other discussion about a stub street to the East.
Mr. Bone did not wish to do this on this parcel of property as
it would place it so close to the service road. Mr. Wood conceded
the additional 50 foot street to the East.
• Mr. Mattke questioned the proposed drainage plane. Mr. Sonderegger
stated he did not think there would be any problem with the drainage.
All of the water will go into the street or into the creek. Mr. Wood
asked what the total acreage in the watershed was; no one knew. It
was noted that practically the whole north part of twon drains
through there,. Mr. Wood suggested the foundations of the houses
should be built up to anticipate a faster run off in the future.
Mr. Mattke told the engineer he thought there might be a problem on
the sewer line crossing the creek. Cast iron pipe set in concrete
is planned and he felt this would obstruct the flow of the creek.
In summary, the recammendatione'of the Committee for the
Centerbrook plat are:

one acre and therefore must be approved by the Planning Commission.
Mr. Lieberens said that the surface drainage goes to the rear of r :E
Wood'sthe property, Mr. Campbell has indicated that they would like to
eventually tear down the old house on the property, probably within
four or five years, Mr. Lieberenz asked Mr. Wood for his opinion

was that a buffer st#pwould be needed in every industrial area.
