CASE #3: STREET IMPROVEMENT PROJECT #81-20 REGARDING DRIVEWAYS AND SLOW <br /> CHILDREN SIGNS; CASE OF MS. GEORGANN LEITSCHUH: <br /> ' ~~~- ~w. , The city's policy to tie in driveways of a maximum of one foot <br /> <br /> i~~.~ is making those who do not get this benefit very unhappy. In <br /> some cases, we have to do more because we have to reshape the <br /> street which will cause a change in the driveways. Accordingly, <br /> citizens are requesting that they receive the same break. <br /> Also, some of the citizens are concerned about the little children <br /> <br />  ~ and the traffic that is now generated on their street after the <br /> surfacing of it. <br /> Council Action: Your action on this case will probably be to only <br /> note the complaints. <br /> <br />CASE #4: ENGINEERING - POLICY ON PAVING DRIVEWAYS ADJACENT TO STREET IMPROVE~ <br /> <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />MENT PROJECTS: <br /> <br />Background Information: The present policy on connecting driveways <br />to improved streets is to connect only those driveways which are <br />close to the edge of the roadway. Three to four feet has been used <br />as a guideline, since the current City Code does not allow place- <br />ment of surfaced driveways closer than three feet along an unimproved <br />street. However, in some cases it has been necessary to go back <br />over ten feet due to realignment of streets or grade changes. <br /> <br />a) <br /> <br />Several residents have questioned the above policy and will <br />be present at the November 25, 1981 Council meeting to dis~ <br />cuss this policy. Council may want to revise this policy <br />or leave the policy as is. <br /> <br /> b) In Ford Brook Estates, Mr. Greg Messing, 5411 - 180th Avenue~ <br /> called the contractor and was told it was the residents <br /> responsibility to connect driveways, Therefore, he had a <br /> contractor connect his driveway for $96. His driveway was <br /> two to three feet back from the street and was scheduled to <br /> be connected by the contractor. He has contacted the engi~ <br /> neer and asked for reimbursement by the City for his drive~ <br /> way. <br /> <br />// /~Council Action: Your action will be to grant/deny Mr. Messing's <br /> ~se~e~°~o~e~ombu~r~~rat~n~°ll°wing proposed motion is hereby <br /> M~tio~_n~ ~ouncilmember ~__ and seconded by Councilmember <br /> ~F~~. to deny/grant reimbursement to Mr. Messing for <br /> ~ connectin~ his drivew~ <br /> Motion carried, Voting yes . <br /> Votmng no . <br /> <br /> <br />
