He urged annexation, saying the propertyts location within the Cityts service boundary is ideal for subdivision. He suggested location of a road along the east side of lots facing Arcadia Street to provide them access should development of the back portions of their properties be desired. .- Dan Leahy, realtor, said he suggested a meeting with owners of properties on Arcadia Drive with the idea of overcoming their opposition to being included. He thought if they - - were presented with a plan for overall development of the area, including their properties, they would probably be in favor of annexation. He presented a letter from the Lane County Sanitarian recommending annexation on the basis of the propertyts being a marginal area so " far as use of septic tanks is concerned. Mr. and Mrs. Billy Sears, 481 Arcadia; Dorothy Pearl, 478 Arcadia; A. A. York, 339 Arcadia Drive opposed the annexation. Their opposition was hased on the arguments that the developers were interested only in financial gain, traffic congestion would increase, schools would be further overcrowded, sewers are not needed at this time, multiple-family dwellings are not wanted, etc. Manager noted petitions received signed by owners of properties on Arcadia Drive stating they did not favor annexation erE their properties atl-"this time. He said the Planning Commission felt the requested annexation would not be logical unless it included the:, properties on Arcadia Drive. Without inclusion of those properties a County area surrounded on three sides by the City would result. Manager noted the arguments with regard to access and traffic ppoblems and said in all fairness it should be said that a good street system built into the area proposed for annexation could relieve the traffic congestion problems there as well as accommodate the new development. e; Public hearing was closed, no further testimony being presented.
