<br />2. Oakwav'Road Width -The City Manager explained to the members of the 'City
<br />- Council and others present by means of several :colored cr,?ss sectional-
<br />type drawings prepared by the Department of Publi~ Works how Oa~way'Road would
<br />look if widened to one of several :widths. These drawings showed the traffic
<br />: lanes, curb and gutter,: sidewalks, :and parking strip 'loc~tions as applied
<br />. against poss'ible street widths, in relation to publ icly owned right-of-way.
<br />The Department of Public Works recoimnended that a la-foot right.-of-way be
<br />acquired and used for the widening of Oakway, which would give four 12-
<br />foot travel lanes with no parking and :setback: sidewalks and including a
<br />4' 6" parking strip on each side.:'
<br />
<br />I.
<br />
<br />On call for discussion, Mr. Parker P. Hilty of 765 Oakway Road stated that
<br />he had contacted many ,of the residents.:on.the..:east,.side.of,Oakway,Road"
<br />and they were generally -opposed to t~e proposed widening. , Mr. Hilty
<br />stated these' oDjections were that tlie installation of a 4-lane road would
<br />mean extra, added .traffic in the residential area, that the widening
<br />would necessitate the cutting of trees and shrubs along the front edges
<br />of residential property, 'and th~t' the road would create. an. injustice.
<br />to property owners"as to parking facilities, :and also that the road is
<br />not considered .a through road, that it deadends at Cal Young Road.
