September 29, 1997: I went to the County Planning office to check on the history of the <br /> request of the new subdivision and found a letter dated May 29, 1997 from Sandra Schutte, <br /> <br /> who was acting as an Attorney for Mr. Norrie at that time. The letter was addressed to the <br /> Planning Director and it stated that "The roadway would end in a cul-de-sac, in lieu of a stub- <br /> out at the property line, so that no future roadway will connect to this private road." Another <br /> letter of the same date from Sandra Schutte to Mr. Galen Kuba, Department of Public Works <br /> stated that "The roadway is also proposed to end in a cul-de-sac, in lieu of a stub-out, since <br /> there will not be any future roadway to connect to this private road." also, in the same letter, <br /> Sandra Shutte stated "You (Mr. Kuba) indicated that you would not have any problem with the <br /> proposed roadway improvements as long as the roadway continued to be maintained in private <br /> ownership and there was some assurance that this type of roadway would not support <br /> additional lots in the future." <br /> Today I stand against approval of Bill 129 for the following reasons: <br /> Increased safety measures on the private road have been promised to the existing lot owners, <br /> but have not been made a condition of County Council approval. <br /> The private road is showing extreme wear and tear and its repair to County standards has not <br /> been made a condition of County Council approval. <br /> Mr. Norrie has stated that he has given the right to use the private road to 8 lots not addressed <br /> in any subdivision application. I saw a map yesterday that shows 9 parcels rather than the 8 <br /> Mr. Norrie told me about. This is a potential of 18 additional families using a roadway that will <br /> be already carrying traffic from farm equipment, contractors and 11 other families. Use of the <br /> road only by the existing 4 lot owners and 7 new lots under Bill 129 should be a condition of <br /> County Council approval. <br /> ~ <br /> ~~4~~"(:t'',~~rl /!~i Vim'` ~L(?~ <br /> Lawrence M.
