MR. JAMES ROTH, 2992 North victoria: I would like to reiterate the point regarding the storm sewer assessment. I don1t believe we renefit fr0m the storm sewer. If that deve10pment was not made, there1s no need for the storm sewer in the area. The need is created by the pavement, the driveways, the changes in soil characteristics - made by developing lots and as such, is changing the drainage characteristics behind our respective houses. That is creating the need for the storm sewer and not by any action that we have done with our lots. Therefore, I don't believe the benefit is there. In addition, lId like to say that another impact it will have on our lots is that it will decrease our availability of our water supply because there will be more users in the area. Pressures correspondingly drop when many people are using the water Aupply and I feel that's another point cgainst benefits to t.he people who live on Victoria Street. MARY USENIK, 2955 West Owasso Boulevard: I don't feel that the road back of me would do me any good of any sort. I also feel I would be highly assessed for something that would be of no value to me. I feel that the storm sewer would also be very costly <:'nd I had no information whatsoever of a hearing before this one and my letter was dated April first and I received it about April 15 which I thought was very late. MAYOR DEMOS: We did not have a hearing prior to this. FROM THE AUDIENCE: I wrote a letter and you said you'd h?ve this - MAYOR DEMOS: It was not the hearing, but when we ordered the feasibility stuay of Brenner and Owasso Boulevard. MR. HONCHELL: I guess we interpreted that as being presented at the last one and since the hearing was called we didn1t receive another one- we assumed you would be here to express your views. We did receive a letter but it was before the tiMe of the fe2sibility study. -11-
