Attorney Oesterle explained the need for easements during the construction period, and that several of the drainage easements had been designated "permanent" to facilitate needed maintenance, repair, and possible replacement at later.dates without need to again obtain easements. Some of the drainage culvert structures extend to the edge of or beyond the right -of -way and must of necessity be permanent. 'All of the property owners at the meeting were concerned about granting permanent easements when the primary reason for the easement was access by the contractor during the construction period. The matter of removal of trees in both the drain- age easement areas and the temporary grading easements was also discussed. Engi- neer Jacobs explained that the earlier engineering plans had been revised at Board request to minimize the need to remove trees. Grade on the slopes was in- creased to approximate present slopes. She showed on the new plans the extent of the required grading beyond the right -of -way. It was agreed that all abutting property owners who wished to could meet with Engineer Jacobs and a Village representative to examine the property affected by the easement.
