6 MRS. WESTLAND: What stage are you at right now in this whole planning thing, and if it goes through, when would the construction be started? MR. HONCHELL: At this time both St. Anthony and Roseville are almost right together. They had their hearing last night. The next stage would be, if it's ordered by Roseville as well, to have the consultant prepare the final plan. One of the problems of doing this immediately is that St. Anthony has some severe sani- tary sewer problems on their side. Their sewers are dipping down and they're having back-up problems. They would like to (inaudible) those lines so that while the street is torn up they could repair the sewers then. That work will probably not be able to be done until late in March, and they will analyze that and they will have to work out what they want to do, so I would guess it's probably going to be late June at least or the first of July and it will take most of the summer. Realistically it will take two or three months. It's not to say your road will be closed all that time but construction will take some period. MR. WARREN ARNDT, 3082 Highcrest: If you have the original petition, it did request a stop sign at Lydia and I think the reasons were indicated in the petition, but I think you should feel that you have been adequately requested at this time to look at the traffic and the speed situation on the street. MR. HONCHELL: We would like to be able to see it after it's in instead of having conjecture as to what it will be or not be. MR. ARNDT: The speed has been in excess, we feel, the way the road is now, and I think it's as good a road as any for (inaudible) to test automobiles for rattles and squeaks so I think it would be more dangerous. I would request that the parking be on the St. Anthony side because St. Anthony has a park on the west side of the street and it's widely used. There are a lot of people who stop and let children off that use the park. MAYOR DEMOS: If there's no one else, I will close the hearing. What is the Council's pleasure? COUNCIL~ffiN ANDERSON: One question on that parking. Can we switch that no-parking as you go up and down the street, or no parking all on the inside or all on the west side, or part east and part west. Is there any minimum distance involved? MR. HONCHELL: You can switch it back and forth, but I guess we would recommend it to be on one side continually, or at least for an extensive period so the motorist does not have to start jogging back and forth around parked cars. We would like to put them in a lane and keep them there. Councilman Curley then introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: Resolution No. 6793
