which is on the top right and go directly to the west to connect it that way and build a cul-de-sac at the end of Sherren. As was said, several ways were reviewed but due to the fact that there are some utilities existing and lot lines already exist, two primary alternatives were considered. The first is Alternative A. In this one you would begin at the dead end of Sherren on the north, make a 90 degree turn, and go straight south along an existing lot line and then due east to victoria. This would be over the area of already existing storm sewers and sanitary sewers. In this proposal, new utilities would have to be built at the end of Sherren and up what is called Nancy Place and a water line would have to be constructed to Victoria. Under this proposal there would be 20 lots buildable and this would have a cost of approximately $87,000 total which breaks down to $43.66 per buildable lot. This alternative results in roadway grades which are 3% or less with the exception of a very short 75 foot stretch near Victoria where a 5% grade would result. It also accommodates the existing property lines to the highest degree possible and does not go through any parcels. It also does a fairly good job of matching the existing ground elevations in that the greater differential in the proposed road elevation and the abutting ground is 3 to 4 feet near Victoria along E, especially the south side. The second alternative is labeled Alternative B and in this one we go from Victoria due west along the line of an existing utility and then we continue the roadway to where ttcames out on Milton Street. This takes in a slightly larger area than Alternative A in that it goes a little further to the west and picks up those last 3 or 4 lots, and as part of this develop- ment it would also be necessary to put a cul-de-sac at the end of Sherren to serve that landlocked property. Under this pro- posal there would be 20 lots at a cost of approximately $90,000 or $44.30 per lot. This would result in road grades that would in some places be 6% and not have quite as good a traffic pattern due to the fact it would be bringing traffic from Victoria along the new roadway and up Milton which now doesn't have any through traffic. In order to give you a sort of a comparison between A and B, we have developed, simply for comparative purposes, what would happen if you would add a cul-de-sac at Milton to Alternative A to develop the same land that was shown in Alternate B. You would pick up four more lots and pick up (inaudible). It's my recommendation that Alternative A has the lowest price per lot, has lesser grades, eliminates cross traffic through Milton, and does a better job of staying along the lot lines and having less parcels that have to be negotiated and I recommend that Alternative A be the best way to solve the ingress and egress to this site.
