E. Rosenquist, 8380 Spring Lake Road. She explained <br />it was necessitated by the County's requirement that <br />the lot be replatted. <br />Motion /Second: Blanchard /Quick to approve Resolutiot. <br />No. 2380, reapproving the minor subdivision for W. E. <br />Rosenquist, 8380 Spring Lake Road, and waive the reading. <br />5 ayes 0 nays <br />Clerk /Administrator Pauley explained this request for <br />the installation of a street light was directly across <br />from a dedicated road right -of -way, and based on <br />Staff's review, they would not recommend installation <br />as it is too close to other lights, and the Police <br />have no record of a significant number of problems to <br />justify this placement, on the basis of concerns for <br />safety. <br />Tom Gresher, 2508 Hillview, stated he has had nine <br />acts of theft or vandalism on this property since he <br />moved in in 1972, and he reviewed those occurances. <br />He stated not all were reported to the Police, but he <br />feels a light there would help deter further acts of <br />vandalism or theft. He explained with the easement <br />that is there, it is easy for a person to run <br />either way in total darkness. He added he had <br />someone come to his door in the middle of the night <br />once and threaten him, but it was too dark to be able <br />to get his license number. He added his neighbors <br />are in favor of the street light also. <br />Councilmember Hankner stated she supports this request, <br />as she feels lighting on Hillview would be helpful <br />and would discourage vandalism. <br />Barry Clark, 2504 Hillview, stated he has had problems, <br />and even had someone hiding in the shed in his back <br />yard that the Police were looking for. <br />18.
