4.SUBDIVISIONS
Sign. Tirado asked about the design of the sign. It has not yet been designed.
Sidewalks. Considerable discussion ensued concerning sidewalks. ! An early suggestion to move the bumper stops back six feet on the I 1 parking lot was discarded because of the possible liability which it might inflocit upon the parking lot owner. Final decision was to add culvert (possibly 24 11 ) in front along F.M. 2351, fill, and put the sidewalk over this.
He will return next week. He will show the lettering on the mansard roof and the lighting. Wind loading will be indciated.

on Castlewood as originally ap proved. This would result in a a savings to the developer of about $1000.
After considerable discussion and consultation with Kenneth Toon, Water and Sewer Superintendent, the Commission agreed that it was ready to vote on the issue. Mr. Toon had recommended that the line not be put on the back lot line, since there was nothing more advantageous to the City than keeping off the back lines. There are too many problems of access to back-line easements, such as the tearing down of fences, etc.
MOTION WAS MADE by Shore, seconded by Nor.th, to deny, upon the recommendation of the Water and Sewer Superintendent, Mr. Vester 1 s request.
MOTION TIED, 3-3. For: Shore, Fossler, North. Against: Phillips, Tirado, Spears. Absent: Raney.
The Chairman stated that the effect of the tie was to deny Mr. Vester's request, since a majority could not pe gotten to grant the request, either.
North reported that she had informed Mrs. Lyons, who owns a tract fronting on Castlewood, that she could divo .de her property into two tracts at this time, one fronting on Richmond, but that the tract was not wide enough to divide, into four lots which front on open ditch streets.

North reported that a series of conversations with the Highway Depart ment revealed that the driveway entrances on the North side of 518 were designed with Ii' radiuses, but that she had been reassured that the radiuses of the south side would conform to 1 1· a ten foot radius unless this would be too close to the 1 property line.
The meeting was then adjourned.J:!ived:_ . ,±,.:5. /<77L/ , ., --�
