Staff report by Rick Gomez, city planner. Mr. Gomez stated a petition had been received this evening addressing issues of circulation. Mayor Mikels read the following letter for the record: To Whom It May Concern: We are the surrounding neighbors of the development of condominiums and we were wondering if the run off of water from Hellman would be taken care of with the storm drain that will be put in. The north side of the street fills up with water, then it starts running down the south side. We've had garages and houses flooded. In the widening of the street are they planning to use just the land that is owned by the State or buy some from the people. If they plan on buying land, (Z3) (~4) City Council Minutes January 19, 1983 Page 6 will they buy from both sides of the street? We on the south side do not want to be the only ones to lose our land. Because if we ever decide to sell, we wouldn't get the full value for our land. The Zanrosso's are not in favor of widening the road any more than what the State owns, because the use of their front yard is for turning around. Their back yard is not big enough to turn around in. The traffic along 19th Street is now pretty heavy at times. Even with the road being widened and a turn in for the condominiums, the traffic will be much heavier. The children who have to cross the street for school in the mornings will have a harder time. Most of the neighbors had already stated their concerns at the meeting.
