The Council sent a memorandum stating a street and bond election has been proposed for consideration in the near future. One item which has been mentioned is a bridge across Coward's Creek which would make Winding Way a continous street from 518 to Briarmeadow and beyond. In view of this the Council feeling is no name change at this time. The memorandum is to be attached to the minutes of the September 16, 1976 meeting.

LETTER - VAN WILLIAMS - PRESIDENT OF ANNALEA CIVIC CLUB The Commission received a letter from Mr. Williams stating the deed restrictions for Annalea prohibit the erection of signs with the exception of home for sale signs not exceeding 4 square feet. The developer in advertising the new homes for sale build a large sign at the entrance to Mary Ann. When all the homes were sold he was asked to remove the sign, which he agreed to do. Before the sign was removed he donated the land on which it stands to Hope Lutheran Church. Approximately one year ago the City Manager was requested to have the sign removed, the sign still stands. We therefore want the Commission to advise us of the necessary action to have the sign removed, since it is in violation of the subdivision restrictions. Mr. Raney contacted Mr. Morgan on September 10, 1976 stating he will have the city workers remove the sign within 3 weeks.
