<br />SEVERAL METHODS INCLUDING CONSIDERATION Of STREET WIDENING, REMOVAL OF SOME ON-STREET PARK-
<br />ING, EXTENSION OF THE ONE-WAY GRID, AND REMOVAL Of HAZARDOUS STREET CONDITIONS THROUGH PRO-
<br />PER TRAFFIC ENGINEERING. WE SHOULD CONSIDER ASKING THE PEOPLE TO MODIFY THE RESIRXCTIONS

<br />MUTUAL PROBLEMS Of TRAFFIC AND UTILITY NEEDS, AND INCREASED EFFORT TO PRESERVE AND DEVELOP
<br />WILLAMETTE RIVER WATERFRONT PROPERTIES FOR PUBLIC USE.
<br />
<br />...
