The meeting was called to order at 7:00 P.M. by Chairman Dumke.
Also present were Committee Member Sanders, Public Works
Superintendent Loughney and those per the attached list.
The Committee discussed request for a turn-around on Elm Drive
with Mr. Alex Rohrwasser which he believes would give him access
to the existing back lots. Mr. Rohrwasser claims that an
agreement was reached with the City approximately thirty years ago to install a turn-around. Due to the time frame involved,
there are no records to indicate such an agreement. The
Committee suggested that Mr. Rohrwasser contact the City's
Department of Planning and Development to determine if a solution
can be worked out in regard to an easement to obtain accessibility to their lots.
The Committee discussed ditch restoration on Bay Lane with Mr.
Robert Klenz. Mr. Klenz is requesting that the ditches be
reshaped to conform with pre-existing conditions. Supt. Loughney
explained that the reason behind the ditching was to allow for a wider road in anticipation of future development. The Committee
will look into the agreements made with the Sewer Contractor and determine what restoration, if any, may be required.

underway in the near future.

establishing two or three lots and report back to the Committee.

Harenda on Lentini Drive and made recommendations to solve his
