Regular Council Meeting <br />10/18/93 <br />Page Ten <br />Mayor Rinker said no--it is strictly on a temporary basis. Is it necessary to have any <br />kind of a bridge or structure for vehicular traffic or equipment to go across that creek? <br />Mr. Hovancsek said he thinks it is necessary for that first few hundred feet that is going <br />on in that area. Beyond that point he believes they can handle the rest from Beech Hill. <br />Mayor Rinker asked why it is essential for that first few hundred feet of work. <br />Mr. Hovancsek said because they have to get their trucks working to get out of there. <br />You can't back trucks up. You must work from Seneca over; you will have to have it so <br />you will allow vehicles to go in on way, to load up and get out another way. <br />Mayor Rinker asked whether or not it could go some point north of Seneca on Beech <br />Hill. Mr. Hovancsek said not really; the right-of-way is very narrow--there is no room for a <br />big truck to turn around and go the other way. He feels it would be necessary for the <br />contractor to have a temporary access over there--but to use it for the entire project <br />would be another matter. <br />Mrs. Suit (in the audience) said up unti11988 Beech Hill was 40' wide, then it became 50' <br />wide--how did that happen? <br />Mayor Rinker said it was paved in two sections. <br />Mrs. Leppla said most of Council received in their packet an estimate on overhead <br />arrows and they discussed that tonight in the Traffic Committee meeting. The cost of <br />that was around $5,000. It was the consensus of those at the meeting that we would <br />rather see the money spent on a traffic light at Joyce since most of the traffic would be <br />directed and turning in left at that point. <br />Mrs. Cinco said some of these issues we will be dealing with dowrn the road, but the <br />issue right now is these 2,000 cars. <br />U212er 40 <br />Mayor Rinker said the last time he spoke with Mr. Merkel he recommended that he and <br />the Pierces have an individual to propose an alternative to some of the site studies that <br />we have received to date. Mayor Rinker said he wants to nail this thing down. Mr. <br />Merkel advised him that he does have a proposal from an individual. Right after this
