The motion receiving no action was moving four lots in Outlot H to the farthest west and <br />Lennar has agreed to this action. <br /> <br />The proposed land dedication, as shown on the attached layout, is approximately 26.68 acres and would satisfy <br />the entirety of the land dedication required per ordinance – 26.56 acres. Accepting this land dedication means <br />that the project would not generate additional park dedication funds with the filing of each subsequent final plat. <br /> <br />
