BOWEN FROM PRESIDENT SHANNON ABOUT THE CLOSING OF MCCORMICK ROAD AND THE CONTINUATION OF A CLOSED HOSPITAL DRIVE. ! DO AND I AM SURE THE REST OF THE COUNCIL WISHES TO CO-OPERATE IN EVERY WAY WITH THE UNIVERSITY OFFICIALS AND AM SYMPATHETIC TOWARDS THE PROBLEM OF STUDENTS HAVING TO WALK IN AND ACROSS HcCoRMICK ROAD. AS CHAIRMAN OF THESTREE'T COMMITTEE, I FEEL ! SHOULD BRING IT TO COUNCIL'S ATTENTION THAT THE CLOSING OF THESE TWO STREETS TO THROUGH TRAFFIC GIVES ME GREAT C~NCERN AND CREATES TWO MAJOR PROBLEMS. THE FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT IS ADEQUATE FIRE PROTECTION TO THE UNIVERSITY BUILDINGS. AS I AM SURE YOU KNOW, THE UNIVERSITY PAYS THE CITY ~75.00 A YEAR FOR FIRE PROTECTION. WITH THE STREETS BLOCKED OFF, THERE WILL ALWAYS BE A CONSIDERABLE DELAY 1N REACHING A FIRE AND IN THE ~ASE OF OUR LARGER EQUIPMENT, SOME OF THE TURNS ARE PRACTICALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO NEGOTIATE. WE HAVE ALREADY EXPERIENCED ONE CONSIDER- DELAY ABLE/ON HOSPITAL DRIVE AND HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR THE FIRE~EN' USING CUTTING SHEARS
