These are the areas that are shown on the Plat that are being re-platted. The reasons 1) is for adjusting the roadway to accommodate a wider cut or wider fill; 2) to remove some lots--from steep access areas, 3) to add certain utility easements that are outside the standard lot lines and road right-a-way.
