Case g9: Sewer Alignment Councilmember Beyer remarked that this issue is a really important one. She stated she would like to not see any part of the nature trail destroyed and to see a very assertive effort to go around it. Councilmember Beahen stated she agrees with Councilmember Beyer. A lot of parents and community members put a lot of effort into this wonderful amenity that can ill-afford to be destroyed. Councilmember Zimmerman suggested seeking an alternate location for the sewer and felt that it would probably not be any more expensive. Mayor Hardin encouraged all the Councilmembers to be at the meeting on Monday pertaining to this issue. City Council/March 28, 1995 Page 11 of 13
