2393 <br />probably is the most significant factor. <br /> <br />Russ Bull My wife and I occasionally use the walk. I have no <br />1810 Arona; little children-on],y one daughter who is 25. You are <br />putting in storm sewer and perhaps more children use <br />the walkway this year because of it. I am on a bus <br />stop and the kids walking on my property waiting for <br />the bus don't bother me at all. <br />Clerk Strandquist read statement dated June 1~+, 1966 <br />signed by people in opposition to vacation to the walk- <br />way. <br />~~1 <br />I <br />~_~ <br />Collin A lexar_der Mr. Beardsley said the walkway cuts through their property. <br />1868 Arona: It should be put clear~,y on the record that the walkway was <br />there and the property merely adjoins it. I didn't know <br />it was generally accepted that dogs can be tied on public <br />property. As far as my home - I pay a fair degree of <br />taxes. If I should ever want to sell, the value of that <br />easy access to the school adds a certain degree of value <br />to my property. If this should be closed, I would want <br />some decrease in the taxes for the loss. <br />Beardsley: We are well aware of the safety factor. The traffic on <br />Holton in my estimation is much greater than on Garden. <br />Holton is getting to be a speedway. I have checked the <br />traffic situation on Garden. Igo to work from between <br />8;00 to 8:15 in the a.m. and I have spent several minutes <br />watching traffic on Garden. The traffic there is very <br />minimum. There are other people who can testify to that <br />too. Garden is actually less of a hazard than Holton. <br />These property owners were aware of this when they bought <br />the land. This is true. It was dedicated by plat. I <br />don't know where Mr. Stoss comes in. This walkway was <br />of no significance, they were told. The situation has <br />changed considerably. In 19x+7 when this was dedicated,, <br />it didn`t matter as much to the people as it does now. <br />The petitioners are not agair_st children. There have <br />been some incidents that have been exaggerated. The <br />use and. enjoyment is not what it should be there and <br />their rights are not what they should be. .Put yourself <br />in their places in having to live here day by day. This <br />is fundamentally the reason we are here-is to give these <br />people the full use of the enjoyment of their property. <br /> <br />The debris shown in the photo being passed around was <br />taken during a week-end and probab ly to show that they <br />are using the walkway in this manner. It is not a <br />consistent thing. Tt is kept clear, and those people <br />have maintained the walkway. <br />Mrs. Reeves: Do your clients object to having this finished? <br />Beardsley: They do not object, but I think they would object to it <br />being b1-acktopped. They do object to bikes and motor- <br />cyc les . <br />
