4B. VACATION OF CERTAIN TRAIL EASEMENTS WITHIN TRACT 9440
Rick Gomez, City Planner, reviewed staff report. He noted that in addition
to the original petition received requesting abandonment of the above mentioned
easements, another petition had been received from residents opposed to abandon-
ment and requesting that item be continued until August.
Mayor Mikeis opened the meeting for public hearing:
*Phillip Boilington, 9979 Manzanit~ reviewed the reasons he felt the trails should be abandoned which included:
1. Would provide increased security.
2. Would allow homeowners to use the land for themselves.
3. Would help alleviate fly problem.
4. Concerned about liability factor for homeowners with public trails.
* Sydney Crabtree, 10009 Coca Ave., stated the covenants in their deeds did
not permit horses. He indicated there should be a place in the northern
area of the city for people who do not have horses.
* Helen Husband, 10339 Coca Avenue, stated that when they purchased property
they knew about horse trail but were told that all they had to do was go
to the City with a majority of residents to have them abandoned.
* Hans Peterson, 5954 Dartmouth Ave. and Saul Cohen, 5938 Dartmouth Ave.
presented slide presentation and reviewed the reasons they felt the
trails should not be abandoned. Some of the points raised--increase in
property value, access from rear of property, easy access to homes by
emergency vehicles, block walls have already been constructed and trails
are part of the larger trail complex.
* MichaelBatelaan, 5935 Elmhurst stated he thought equestrian trails were
a good idea but that in their particular area the majority of residents
did not want horses. He expressed concern about maintenance, liability and
property taxes.

homeowners to buy horses in opposition to provisions of convenant.

be continued to the August 4th meeting when the full City Council would be present.

tion is, they would not be deleting the easement as it runs along the east side
of the project on Hermosa, which at that point runs through public right-of-way.
