Mr. Dave Stepan, 2813 36°i Avenue NE, appeared before the City Council and presented several pictures of the Silver Lake Road construction project. Ire stated there have been a lot of issues with traffic volume and drivers taking alternate routes to avoid the semaphore at 37°i and Silver Lake Road by traveling north or south on Belden off 36"i. He also presented pictures of his lot prior to and after street reconstruction, noting that the construction crews tend to use the corner lots for storage. He stated that much of this three-year construction process was overwhelming and there was no easy way to maneuver without being disgruntled. He stated he was not aware that when the City widened the street the City was also going to lower the street, noting his lawn sits about 6" below curb height and on the west side, it sinks to about 1.5'. Ile indicated that according to WSB, it was decided to institute the rule about the curb at the driveway and it was his understanding that the standard now is to taper down. He stated his driveway was new in 2009 and was based on a radius and now that the curb is tapered, he was not sure what was going to happen with it, adding that the reimbursement rates will likely be less than what he paid for it. He also expressed concern about the property tax assessments for his lot. Mayor Faust requested that Mr. Stepan leave his phone number so that staff can contact him. IX.
