the possible locations for river front recreation.Mr.West informed the

obtained from Mr.James O’Shea,Mr.Traf ton Bean and the State Highway
Department.
The Committee agreed that one “in and out”curb cut near the center of
the lot on Elkhorn Avenue would be the most logical and effective plan.

the final design will permit.

lot plan until they have time for further study.
