------ 1
Street On motion by Mr. Willcoxon, seconded by Mr. Cline, the following
Committee report submitted by Mr. Willcoxon , chairman of the Committee on
Report. Streets, Alleys and Sidewalks, and read by the clerk, was adopted:
'"The Street Committee met Monday, January 14, 1963, with a quorum
!present to handle and resolve the following:
1. Regarding the revised street cut ordinance, this
Committee, with the City Engineer and the City Attorney, made the
necessary corrections and revisions and directed the City Attorney
to write an ordinance to submit to the Council for approval during j
the regular meeting of January 21, 1963.
2. As regards the revision of the standard driveway and
curb cut return ordinance, it was determined by this Committee thatJi
:the City Engineer, with the City Attorney, further review and study !
the proposed changes to this ordinance and said review to be made
available for the next Street Committee meeting, at which time
this Committee will take final action .
3. In regard to Tom Graham' s petition for the establishment;
of a sewer district in Wagner Place Subdivision, this Committee reviewed the j
City Engineer' s report of October 10, 1962, on this subject . The
City Engineer' s report points out: (a) that the bulk of the
i
troubles seem to be within the immediate area of the sewer line
:within Mr. Graham' s property; and (b) that the first step to take
'would be for Mr. Graham to correct his house drain connection, but
' that, in the event the correction of the house waste in Mr. Graham' s'
.residence fails to solve the problem to his complete satisfaction,
. the trunk line system should then be investigated within that immediAt
area.
After discussing this problem at length, this Committee
recommends, due tothe high cost of maintenance of this line by our
own city forces, that the sewer line starting near the intersection"
of Fairmount Court and Moreau Drive to Oakwood Drive be replaced
at city expense, subject to the approval of the property owners
involved. This Committee feels that the recommendation will not
necessarily guarantee a solution to the problem that exists, but
Pthat at least it is a first step in solving the problem." i
On motion by Mr. Willcoxon, seconded by Mr. Robinson, the City
Engineer and the Councilmen from the Fifth Ward were instructed
to contact property owners in the area adjacent to Fairmount Court
and Moreau Drive to Oakwood Drive with reference to the
recommendation adopted in the Street Committee Report .
