Mr. Lloyd Grooms, representing Mr. Yoe Stanek:, was present at the meeting, and asked that two issues be addressed: 1) affirmation of the right-of-way, and ) physical accessibility to Stanek's property. Mr. Grooms stated that they do not want a roadway, and that petition for a roadway is not being requested. Mayor Atkinson stated that he takes issue with Mr. Grooms' letter implying that the city has been unwilling to resolve this matter. Councilman McAllister asked Mr. Grooms if Mr. Stanek: understands fully his option to petition for installation of this roadway. Mr. Groom responded in the affirmative. The possibility of vacating the right-of-way and retaining an easement for driveway purposes was discussed. Mr. Grooms said he would discuss that option with his client, and would get back: with the city.
