� MAYOR CREPEAU: "I think you're going to be treated fairly. I'm sure of it. If it's done this year, I'm positive." MR. FI,A�F�RTY: "As far as the feasibility, that's fine." COUL3CILMAN CRICE�PONs "I have a technical question. Assu- ming this is a one-way street - 36 £eet is what we have been having for two-way streets, Could it be narrower, and therefore, less costly if its only one-way?" MR. CHRISTOFFERSEN: "I don't know what we planned (inaudi- ble). I would say, leave it as a 3b foot street. I think try it as a two-way, and if it doesn't work, change to one-way. You're not out anything by having it extra wide." COUNCTI.MAN WINGERT: "May I point out one thinq with that concept to argue against it? If you look at the proposed drive- ways in and out of the parking lots, aad in and out of the new proposed Eacility, iE you start making that two-way and collecting lines between those driveways, you will see more criss-crossing than you can shake a stick at, so if you think it's chaos now when the bowling lanes are over -- Now I'm not naive enough to think making it one-way will eliminate the jackstraws out there, but I think it will cut it down, especially if you try to enforce a one-way (inaudible) but I just dread the thought o£ people bopping in and out of those parking lots and coming out of McDonalds (inaudible)," MR. CHRISTOFFERSEN: "Even if you have a one-way it's pro- bably to your advantage to have two lanes rather than just one. Your existing Connelly Avenue as it exists today, or as it was constructed in the past, was 30 feet." COUNCILMAN CRICHTbN: "If it weze to be a two way street you'd recommend 36. If it were to be a one-way you'd recommend • 36 feet." I�Ilz. CHRTSTOFFERSEN; "I think you'd get the value out of side by side vehicular traffic movinq out of there." MR. FLAHERTY: "Whichever way the Council deaides - one-way or two, but my suga,�estion is try it out, but we'll pass leaflets out and everything to try to explain to the customers," -13-
