On behalf of the Town Board, please accept the following comments: 1. The entire property will be able to be served with municipal services by Credit River Township in the future, while only a portion can be served by Prior Lake. There is potential for the property to develop now using well and septic and remain in Credit River, with intensification of the development completed at a later time when Credit River has brought municipal services to the site. 2. The property drains east into existing drainageways and creeks in Credit River Township. There are existing concerns downstream related to flooding that could be exacerbated by development of this site. Credit River does not have any projects planned in its CIP to address this downstream issue. cc: Credit River Town Board 414.033 ANNEXATION BY ORDINANCE.
