Discussion Rega'rding Beech'Hi11'Road Mrs. Robert Fetzer, 899 Beecfi'Hill'Road - stated the Beech Hill residents met on June 2 to discuss the May 6th letter they received from Mr. Feneli as directed by Council to be sent. She reported the residents arrived at the following decisions: They will not assume the responsibility.for.the maintenance of Village roads. They agreed they would not getition for paving at this time. She stated she is not an official spokesperson for the residents and is stating her opinion only. She said Mr. Feneli's letter stated that Council has determined that it can no longer justify the expenditure of funds for the maintenance and repair of Beech Hill Road. She had a newspaper article of November 19, 1981 regarding Beech Hill and Beechers Brook. Mayor Beebe was quoted as saying; "Money-wise, the cost is minimal. A hundred dollars worth of gravel here and there". Mrs. Fetzer said the residents of Beech Hill know full well that the cost has been minimal and road maintenance has been relatively poor for some time now. She said she does not expect thousands of dollars to be appropriated for Beech Hill Road. She feels their needs are very simple. All they would require is an occasional grading, a little gravel here and there, a dust inhibitor and functional ditches (something that seems to be lacking in some areas, and seemingly lacking in the recently paved north end of Beech Hill Road).
