There was a discussion about the connection of the connection of Main Street and 400 South and the phasing. Mr. Bybee asked that they be allowed to install the connection within the first two phases. The phasing discussion continued. Mayor Pro Tempore Flake suggested that they insert an agreement between the builder and the city engineer as to the road phase.
