STREET VACATION: SUSSEX LANE
Mayor Larson asked for the affidavit of oublic hearing for the vacation of that
part of Sussex Lane comprised between a line running from the 8outhwest corner
of Lot l, Block 2, to the Northwest corner of Lot 7, Block 3, and the South-
westerly line of County Road No. 125, in the plat of Wychwood.
Mr. Bertz, who presented the petition was present. Mr. & Mrs. Michael Caron,
Lots 9 & l0 Blk 3; Mrs. Bertha Allen, Lot ll, Blk 3; Mrs. Martha Fillmore, Lot
2, Blk 2 & Lot 8, Blk 3~all in Wychwood were also present and objected to the
vacation of this street.
Mrs. Caron said this had been tried once before and these same people had ob-
jected at that time as it would mean this road would never be cut through.
There are so many cars parked there now, it is difficult to get out of there,
and there are five more lots that haven't been built upon.
Sussex Lane dead ends here as there is a very high bank here, and it has never
been cut through. Mr. Caron said if Sussex Lane were lowered farther west,~his
high bank cut down, and the hallow below filled in, it might be possible to join
this road to #125 as originally planned.
Manager Kopp wondered if a culdesac could be built here. The property owners
said there wasn't enough room for a turn-around.
Mayor Larson reminded them that the Village doesn't build roads, but will
accept them when they are finished and approved. He wondered if the peoole
living there and the owners of the vacant lots would be willing to put in a
road. They said they couldn't say without knowing the cost, but they would
try to get together and report. Carons own the high point and would be willing
to have the road lowered in front of their place. Schoell & Madson have the
elevations of all the roads in Island Park, but these elevations were not avail-
able tonight. Peterson moved, Batdorf seconded, and it was unanimously carried
to continue the hearing to June 20 at 8:00 P.M. at the Fire Station. It was
unanimously carried. (See below next paragraph).
THREE POINTS WATER SURVEY
Mr. Schoell presented the preliminary plans for serving Three Points with water.
He recommended Plan "C" and said $200,O00.OOwould cover. It was requested
that he meet with the Water Advisory Committee as soon as possible and hearing
was set for June 27. In order to get the Three Points Water Project under way
as early as possible, Batdorf moved, Peterson seconded, and it was unanimously
carried to move the hearing on Sussex Lane to June 27 and have the Three Points
Water Hearing on June 20 at 8:00 P.M. at the Shirley Hills School.
Batdorf offered the following resolution and moved its adoption:
