The district is obtaining easements for the 3rd and 4th phases of the project between Peach St. / Durston Rd. and Mendenhall St. UNRESOLVED ISSUES: None. ALTERNATIVES: As determined by the Commission. FISCAL EFFECTS: The easements each require one dollar ($1.00) of consideration. 103 2 Attachments: 1.
