1/27/2023 4:09:56 PM 		Regarding a request for approval of a final plat for Hillside at Lorson Ranch Filing No. 1, Enumerations has the following comments:

1. Addressing has been assigned for and appears on, the plat. After a cursory review of the addressing, it appears to be correct. Enumerations will do a full review before signing off on the plat prior to recording.
2. Prior to recording, Enumerations will review the plat for addressing, title block, floodplain statement and street names. An Enumerations fee of $10 per lot/tract to which an address has been assigned will be due at the time of mylar review.
