Mr. Raatikka agreed that there is a need to enforce speed laws, etc., but someone can't be there at <br />all times to see to it that the laws are obeyed. <br /> <br />Councilmember Pearson commented that the recommendations made by the City En~neer should <br />save the residents and the City money. If the roads are let go; it will cost more to repair them in <br />the future. The residents have the right to petition against the project; it's their road and their <br />decision. <br /> <br />Gerry Joseph - said he feels if the City will be paying 50% of tile maintenance and reconstruction <br />cost, it's ridiculous to allow petitions against it. If the road is not reconstructed in time, there will <br />be more money spent out of the City's pocket in the future. If petitions are allowed against the <br />proposed projects, the City should pull out of tile 50% policy. <br /> <br />Councilmember Pearson stated the Council hopes the right decisions will be made in the first place. <br /> <br />Mayor Reimann stated the Council's hands are tied because of the City Charter - it protects the tax <br />payers by saying if they don't want something they have a right to petition against it and the <br />Council needs to abide by these rules. <br /> <br />Councilmember DeLuca noted there is an opening on the City Charter Commission. <br /> <br />A D.1 OUR NMENT <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember DeLuca and seconded by Councilmember Pearson to adjourn the public <br />hearings. <br /> <br />Motion Carried.
