   Approved · 5-0

   City Attorney Marcus Draper said the easement runs from the Tyson plant to a lift station on land Oquirrh Wood Ranch plans to sell to Tract. Oquirrh Wood Ranch plans a gravity sewer line in the Pole Canyon Boulevard right-of-way to the treatment plant, eliminating the lift station, and Public Works supports it.
