ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
(a) Mr. Bill Stewart, owner and developer of property at Machado and Rice
Street appeared before the City Council to request waiver of the requirement
to install public sewer improvements within tentative tract No. 4267. The reason
for the request was based .upon the impractical condition of constructing
sewer improvements for a great distance in order to connect to the municipal
sewer system, plus the expense without guarantee of participation or refund
within the immediate ilzture.
The City Manager related that contact had been made with the engineers for the
development and stated that the soils analysis would allow the installation of
septic tank -cesspool and leaching facilities for this project. A written
report will be submitted to confirm this.
A motion by Councilman Cartier, duly seconded by Councilman DePasquale, granting
the approval for waiver of sewer improvements, was passed by unanimous vote.
(b) Councilman DePasquale submitted the request for acceptance of street signs,
which were not to City Standards, but to standards acceptable in most locals,
in view that he had already purchased same. Councilman Harmatz moved to approve
the modification and acceptance of these street signs, seconded by Councilman
Perkins and so ordered. Councilman DePasquale abstained from voting.
(c) Councilman DePasquale reported that he had sold two (2) acres next
to the Casino to be developed into a $350,000.00 project. He further
reported that the ten (10) acres adjacent to the old service station is
being proposed for construction of a 25,500 square foot market complex. A
rough plot plan has been drafted with an estimated cost for the improvements
to exceed $500,000.00.
(d) City Manager, Ernest A. Thompson reported the status of the Lakeview
Estates Tract refund on the street improvements. It was noted that the
City Manager at that time had directed a warrant be drawn for refund which
was listed together with the others for payment. Therefore, it was not
recognized by separate action of the City Council. Discussion followed.
It was revealed that since the City had an inherit obligation to maintain
those streets within the Lakeview Estates Tract that a resolution to close
the streets would be appropriate until the City Attorney can provide the
necessary material for giving notice of intent to abandon those streets.
Thereupon, Councilman Harmatz made a motion, duly seconded by Councilman
DePasquale, to adopt a resolution to close all those streets within the
Elsinore Lakeview Estates, Unit IQo. 1. Dlotion passed by unanimous vote.
The City Attorney was instructed to prepare the appropriate resolution of
intention for the abandonment proceeding.
