NEW DEVELOPMENTS AND SUBDIVISIONS: 1) Kenny Lane Pavement Proposal The proposal, by St. Brendan's Church, is to pave a sma.ll section (approxi- mately 60 feet) of Kenny Lane, located at the south end.of a newly constructed church driveway and the west end of Kenny Lane, using construc- tion r.iaterials not in coriformity to city specifications for pavement: Note that I:enny Lane is not currently paved, and is blockecl with posts to prevent "through" vehicular traffic.

After a great deal of discussion it was determined.that the neighbors had no problem with the asphalt, but they do want to eliminate
