When the above mentioned streets are dry and there is a wind, the sand of t ese streets is blown all around. Not only does the sand blow on the aWDs,'heavily but also into the homes. 3. The onstant deterioration of these above mentioned streets cost us mane due to the rough treatment on our cars. Mrs. Adkins p esented the petition to the Clerk Jaworski., Generàl discussion insuedwith M s. Adkins going into detail. She explained, there are 160 homes in Red Oaks, wit l570ccupied. In discussion with Chairman Schneider, &he pointed ~ out they waul like an engineers study done with some alternatives to blacktop .~ being present d. The people in the area felt blacktop before sewer and water would be unca led for. At this point, Ed Erickson entered into the discussion with ,road pro lems from Valley View, 172nd and Woodbine.

Discussion continued with Lauren Anderson. real estate appraiser stating, he ha never traveled roads in worse condition. Jerry Shermer, John Bonicer, Roland Fostand Randy Adkins joining in. James Conroy of Red Oak. added, they should add another en ranee to the area, this would cut down traffic on thesa two streets. Chairman Schne der noted, the Township has never bought any land for roads, we usually accept them fr m the developer. Supervisor Holasek noted, a study was done on this aree last Spri g, with storm sewer, an'alternative to some of the problem. He noted, there is only t certain times, usually after a rain, that grading does 8111 good. Discussion ins ed on hard surface with S11 Adkins again noting, they were not asking for blacktop. Chairman Schneider noted the questioning was gettingrepeti~ious and he would take ne more. Supervisor Holasek noted, a new proéessuSingc1nders¡;àrio clay was u.ed n some roads in other Townships. Ron Buckhouse stated ha would like to sée what th Engineer would present for alternatives. More disêussion insued on alternate ways to get out of Red Oaks.

I , At this point, Chairman Schneider brought the Itlenk Addition, "Valley View .states," back'to the fl r. Ed Erickson noted that the school bus WO\Jld not come in and the ma11 was left t the blacktop. He noted, all they wanted were passable roads and access to thei property. Attorney Hawkins noted, this was uniquesftuation, which - in all probabi ity will never happen again. Mr. Erickson and Attorney Hawkins discu88ed ~ the problem at length. Mr. Erickson stated, the roads were only plowed once this Winter and wer not yet graded this year. Al Westberg pointed this out also. Supervisor Holasek said r cords on grading were kept and that he would check to1see if for some reason, this a ea was over-looked. At this point, Fred Walz of Red Oaks asked for a , motion on thei road problem. Chairman Schneider noted, it would be 'in the minutes ~! and this would be sufficient. Ron Buckhouse of Quinn, in Red Oaks asked 1£ it was possible to ge the state or county to work on the roads. Supervisor Holasek noted that 1£ we wer incorporated, we would be eligible for state'aid funds within a year, possibly $60, o per year, but also noted these funds would have to be used on specific ",roads. Next item on t e agenda was, CrÛl8oncross Itennels. Dan Brwin,represenUng with anew contract. Thi was tabled, because the Board had not reviewed the nèw proposed contract.

The Attorney shall attend. - - ;Minutes - Apri 9, 1974 Page 3 - was to establish a policy for issuing building permits on non public Next agenda it roads. Superv sor Holasek noted, wherever tbis was done, it has created probl_ for the Township. Roger Funk noted he lived on one of these roads and would like to keep it private. ere is pressure for the Township to issue permits on this private road, just off Ward ake Drive. Attorney Hawkins noted we would go by the Ordinance which statea, buildi g permits would be issued only on lots fronting a public right-of-way. He noted we co ld be presently in the process of bdng challenged on this in court. Chairman Schne der noted they could ask for a variance to build, but noted it would set a aangerou presidence and chances for a variance would be slim. lten,Orr entered discussion wit question of "why did they have street address on road, if it was not a public road? Supervisor Christenson uQted, they had to address each resideøce and if the roa was accepted, tbis addreu,.would be,tbe same. Supervisor Holasek again reiterat d, we shogld stand on policy. At this time, Sherri Heidleber'ger interrupted di cussion with their old, cancelled building pe~it problem.
