Mayor Bertino opened the public Audrey Cassese speak in oppositionatongthe requested. Hearing uvacation
�go Renda and
commenting that service alleys should be preserved, the Mayor
closed the public hearing.
In response to Commissioner McElyea ' s questions on the easement
and what type of homes are planned, Building Official Maxwell r
reported that the City would maintain a 15 ' utility easement
through there, that single-family homes in the $100,000 range k
are planned. Commissioner McElyea expressed concern about
garbage and trash being placed in front of the homes and cars
having to park in swal.e areas if the alley is vacated .
Mayor Bertino commented that although building single-family
homes is very positive, service alleys increase property value,
and he asked Building Official Maxwell if a variance would do.
Building Official Maxwell reported that the 60 ' x 100 ' lots
abutting the alley are really only short when you consider
adding a pool or additional building in the rear.
At this time Mayor Bertino re-opened the public hearing. Jerry
Smilen , builder of the houses, said parking in swale areas
should not be a problem since the 3 bedroom homes all have 2-car
garages and double driveways . He stated that the buyers of the
homes do not want the alley, that the alley is not contiguous to
any existing alleys, and that the homeowners have expressed
concerns about unlit alleyways breeding crime. Mr. Smilen also
said quite a few people want swimming pools put in and he was
told variances would have to be applied for on an individual basis .
The The Commissioners all expressed a willingness to approve
variances if applied for in this case, rather than vacating the
alley.
Hearing Robert Graf comment that the people who live there and
don' t want the alley because of the lack of security should have
more say than the people who live three blocks away and don 't
like the trash, the Mayor closed the public hearing.
A motion was made by Commissioner Hirsch, seconded by
Commissioner McElyea to deny the request to vacate alleys
(VC-84-86 ) . The motion to deny passed on the following roll
call vote:
Commissioner Hirsch-yes Vice Mayor Byrd-yes
Commissioner McElyea-yes Mayor Bertino-yes
