LAKE STREET Hanson opened the continuation of the public hearing to IMPROVEMENT consider the improvement of LaJce Street between Jackson HE~RING Street and Lalceshore Avenue by street reconstruction. The City Administrator submitted to the Council a letter prepared by Chuck Nagle, Lake Street resident representing the neighborhood, requesting that the Council consider a less costly alternative based on a 7 year useful life for the street versus 20 years. The Administrator reported that the City Engineer has some concerns but would like to study the proposal. Hanson reported that he can understand the concerns of the Lake Street residents given the City's high taxes and the impact that assessments would have on property tax statements. Hanson stated that he is in favor of looking for the most cost effective way to address the street condition, but did not know that it would be in the best interests of anyone to go with a bare-bones patch. Hanson reported that Council Member LaValle has indicated that the street is residential and has limited traffic, therefore, he was in favor of looking for the most economical way to address the street condition.
