NEITHER WILL THIS STREET MEET THE STATE REQUIREMENTS ANO BE ELIGIBLE TO SHARE IN THE STATE ROAD FUNDS OF $300.00 PER MILE. WE, THEREFORE, CANNOT RECOMMEND THAT THIS STREET BE ACCEPTED BY THE CITY IN ITS PRESENT CONDITION. THIS STREET HAS NEVER BEEN PROPERLY GRADED. IT IS PAVED ONLY ABOUT 12 ro 14 FEET WIDE ANO THE PAVEMENT IS LOCATED ON THE EXTREME EASTERN EDGE OF THE 5O FOOT RIGHT OF WAY AND PROPER pRA1NAGE FACILITIES HAV£ NEVER BEEN INSTALLED. HOWEVER, THE STREET IS ONLY ABOUT 550 FEET LONG AND DUE TO ITS LOCATION WILL BE REQUIRED TO CARRY ONLY A SMALL AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC. IT WOULD BE VERY DiFFfCULT ANO VERY EXPENSIVE TO PROPERLY GRADE THIS STREET AND MUCH DAMAGE WOULD BE DONE TO THE HOUSES WHICH NAVE ALREADY BEEN CONSTRUCTED ON IT. FOR THIS REASON YOUR COMMITTEE WOULD BE INCLINED TO MAKE AN EXCEPTION IN THIS INSTANCE AND RECOMMEND ITS ACCEPTANCE PROVIDED THE PROPERTY OWNERS WILL GRADE AND PAVE THE STREET A MINIMUM OF 16 FEET SO THAT IT WILL QUALIFY FOR THE STATE MAINTENANCE FUNDS AND WILL, OF COURSE, EXECUTE THE USUAL WATER AND GRADE DAMAGE RELEASES.
