Applicant seeks vacation of drainage easement; new easement proposed across site

An applicant told the Sunrise Manor Council Advisory Board on June 12 that they are asking to vacate an existing drainage easement and grant a replacement drainage easement across the same property as part of a civil-improvement plan review.

The request was presented by Taylor Erdman, listed in the record as the applicant, who said the change followed a technical drainage study and the civil improvement plan review process. “We’re proposing a vacation of this drainage easement throughout the entire site,” Erdman said, adding that the study showed flow needed to be pushed to the outside of the site and that a new easement would be granted in its place.

The item was listed under planning and zoning (file reference near 6-25-0353 in the agenda). Erdman said Clark County requested the change during the civil improvement plan process and that the proposed new easement would contain public flow at the site.

Board members opened a public hearing and asked if anyone wished to speak; no members of the public offered comment. A motion to approve the request was made at the meeting, but the transcript does not record a clear vote tally or a formal recorded outcome for the item. The chair thanked the applicant and moved on to the next agenda item.

The board did not discuss conditions, timing, or implementation steps during the recorded remarks. Erdman offered to answer questions and described the plan as arising from the project’s technical drainage-phase findings. The transcript does not show further details about the location of the new easement, whether county engineering conditions were attached, or when final county approvals would occur.

The board proceeded to other planning items after the presentation; this item’s final administrative status and any follow-up conditions should be confirmed with Clark County planning staff or the Sunrise Manor advisory board clerk for the official minutes and decision record.
