6 back in so I can maintain it as comfortably as I do now, and you said they could make that ramp that I have, the driveway, as (inaudible) or better. I don't believe that. MR. HONCHELL: One of the methods, if you want to call it that, of being able to achieve that sort of thing, is the fact that the roadway would be lowered somewhat, plus the fact that one side of the street would be dropped lower than the other. I think there are two retaining walls on the site, and I had the same question, and at least the preliminary answer is by the time they get to those locations, the road location will be at the bottom of your wall rather than half way up or at the top where you would (inaudible) any different than you are today as far as slope and you wouldn't need the wall because the road would be that low. MR. NOVAK: The other problem I have, you're going to run 80% of the grade toward me. Right now my house is probably the oldest house in the area. I get water from three or four homes around me, and I'm going to get 80% of the runoff from the street. Let's say the curb and gutter (inaudible). The retaining wall helps me out that way because I don't get the runoff from the right-of-way. I don't see (inaudible) shows that they're going to go down and I think the gentleman over here said approximately a foot on the north side. If they go down a foot on the north side and come down the bottom of that retaining wall that will be over a two foot drop in 80% of the road. MR. HONCHELL: I believe it's a one foot drop. REPRESENTATIVE OF SHORT OFFICE: I said approximately one foot from the curb on the north side and the curb on the south side. l.ffi. NOVAK: And this gentleman just stated that he thought the finished grade would be at the bottom of the retaining wall, and the retaining wall in one spot is almost two feet high, so what you're saying, you're going to move the street three feet to the north, cut it down a foot. Isn't that what you were saying? I thought you said you were going to take the street three feet north. ~m. HONCHELL: It will be three feet north of the existing centerline. y~. ROGER SHORT: The cross sections spotted up (inaudible) critical spaces on the job (inaudible) we can lay them out and talk to him. You have to get down and look at them. ~m. NOVAK: You mean after the machinery is there I'm going to tell this guy, hey wait a minute. MR. HONCHELL: I guess you want the slopes to be reasonable. l.m. NOVAK: situation where bad. Mine is. worse. I don't want them any worse because I'm in a it's bad, and the majority of the street isn't that I want to be assured that it doesn't get any
