I I I I I I I ! I I I I I I I I I i® Dellwood Hills was developed. He stated his neighborhood was developed before Dellw0od Hills and then another development tying in from the south came in and City Council asked us if that was acceptable. We said yes but now this public hearing is taking place anyway. City Council was forced into making the decision of having a big cul-de- sac. Now you're having two cul-de-sacs here. He stated what Council is discussing "goes against him". You're saying extend cul-de-sac, keep 171st open, then you have an opportunity to correct it and now you saying the heck with us for the next 20 years. He felt that Council was not satisfying his concerns at all. He asked why 171st should be kept open. Mr. Anderley stated that the School District came to the City Council years ago and stated they did not want school busses on Highway #63 so the City made the agreement with the developer that if he split the lot and donated the easement, he could have two homes there. Mr. Dusbabek stated he is concerned with a half mile cul-de-sac. A cul-de-sac should be around one quarter mile. He stated he is concerned with the traffic driving through his neighborhood. He added that in 20 years, maybe Anderley and Hillebregt will sell their property, then the people from Trott Brook will come to Council and say "we've been here for 20 years and it's always been a cul-de-sac. This problem is not being corrected properly. Councilmember Zimmerman stated that the idea to keep 171 st open came from Staff, not from the City Council.
