<br />The City's share would be about $1300, an equal amount to be
<br />paid by the School District.
<br />
<br />Mrs. Beal moved seconded by Mr. Williams to deny the vacation and pro~
<br />ceea. with the fence, gates, and curb cut as recommended.
<br />
<br />Councilman McDonald felt the School District should pay the entire cost of
<br />the improvements, saying the problem is created because of the open campus
<br />policy of the sehool. Manager said the pedestrian easement was placed in '
<br />this subdivision at the time of plat approval at the Planning Commission's
<br />insistence, so that the:City probably does have some responsibility.
<br />Councilman Wood said that Kennedy Jr. High does not have an "open" campus,
<br />and that the recommendation would seem to be a reasonable approach to the
<br />problem.
<br />
<br />Councilman Hershner recollected some previous decision not to spend City
<br />funds on improvement of lots abutting the right-of-way in the Sheldon area.
<br />Manager said the question in that instance was location of the pedestrian
<br />way, some, prope'rty pwners did not want it abutting their properties. The
<br />Commission recommended construction of fences on both sides of the easement
<br />but that was not required of the subdivider in the final Council action.
<br />
<br />Vote was taken on the motion as stated. Motion carried unanimously.

<br />:memos from the City Attorne~'s office and inf'Ormati'On from the Public Works Depart-
<br />,ment regarding the effect of, the Charter amendment ,on limited access routes. Manager
<br />,distributed cqpies of the Charter ~m~ndment to the Council and asked for suggestions
<br />as to steps which might be taken to clarify the posi tion of the City. Assuming a
<br />I friendly lawsuit w'Ould devel'Op a less restrictive interpretation 'Of the amendment, ,
<br />'administratively it is felt the Charter would still be unworkable so far as building
<br />limited access streets. He added that some Council members have questioned whether
<br />there is any legal hazard to proceeding with purchase of property for the Amazon
<br />Parkway West in view of the Charter amendment as it now stands.
