The meeting was reconvened at 9:45 P.M. DIANNA LANE Fahey reported that a petition has been received from RETAINING the Dianna Lane neighborhood requesting the WALL construction of a keystone or timber wall. Fahey stated that he personally did not like the one-to-one slope option, and felt the Council should consider the retaining wall given the character of the neighborhood and longevity of the wall system. Fahey suggested that the City obtain informal bids on both the keystone and timber options. LaValle asked how high the wall would be. LaValle also asked about the installation of a geo-grid system. Fahey replied that the wall would be staggered in two sections, each of which would be four feet in height. The City Engineer reported that the cost of a geo-grid system was included in the cost estimate since the type of soils in this area are unknown. 23
