REPORTS
Cleave Street Handicapped Parking Space: Director Linnane reported
that investigation revealed the proposed handicapped space behind
Park Place Mall does not meet space requirements. A loading zone
at this location can be used for handicapped parking by vehicles
displaying handicapped stickers, per Traffic Model Code Section 12-
3. One handicapped space is presently located at either end of
Cleave Street.
Fifth Street/Manford Avenue Intersection: Director Linnane
responded to the concerns of Cynthia McClure, representing Edwynne
Horst who resides at 340 Fifth St. These concerns included snow
removal, curb reconstruction at the Fourth & Fifth Streets
intersection, a turn -around area, parking restrictions, and
proposed landscaping. Town Administrator Klaphake requested that
trees be incorporated into the proposed landscaping marking the
street closure.
Augmentation Plan: The Augmentation Plan was submitted to the
Water Court on April 28. The Court will prepare and mail resumes
to engineering groups, ditch companies, etc., for submissions of
opposition to the project. Opposition is typical and Attorney
White's opinion is that the Plan will be approved by the Water
Court.
National River Cleanup Week, May 13-21: The local river clean-up
was held May 13, with a total of 45 cubic yards of trash collected.
Chairman Gillette requested a letter of commendation be placed in
the personnel files of Russ Franklin, Mike Hurlburt, Roy Johnson,
and Dan Speedlin for their volunteer work in this effort.
