Preliminary platming and designing costs can be charged back and will eventually gO back into the general fund. ' I The following ~itizens comments as shown: (Staff responses are indicated in parentheses) Bob Nehring, Prairie Road - Are there some reasons why it has to be a highway and , possibly not a rural road, may be objection to 60 foot width N),i".), which may take part of front yards. (No problem getting '.;1>1.. additional right-of-way from field instead of yard area. ~~ere there is nice home on each side it would be split.) , Any possibility of having a straight road by follol~ing the I section line. (Looked at possibility but it would be ! extremely costly because of 1mv area.) Dave Jack , 14826 Butternut Street - Had preyioushearings, feelings have been made I known, and council défÍ"ayèd' action.

Any chance of having a traffic light put in at the railroad crossing on Bunker Lake Boulevard. (Feels one would probably be put in in the future, possibly after a traffic count was J taken.) Shirley Rydh, rairie Road - 1rill it be elevated to the height of Andover Road. (State Aid standards require the first 50 feet be a 2% grade so we would have to elevate.)
