07-11-83 Street & Alley Comm MinutesThe Street & Alley Committee met at City Hall Conference Room on Monday, July 11,
1983 at 3:15 P.M. In attendance were Chairman O'Boyle,Councilmen Vidal and Ruiz
and Street Foreman Clements.
Councilman O'Boyle reported that the Ace Hardware store in the former Peavy-
Thunderbird location has requested permission to erect a sign, stating that the
nearby liquor store has installed one. It was decided that the Highway Department
would not allow a sign placed on the right-of-way. No one seems to know who gave
the liquor store permission to place their sign.
Chairman O'Boyle distributed listings of streets and alleys in need of repair.
Problem areas other than those listed were also discussed. It was felt that first
priority should be the dust coating and overlay at Woodland Park; then the ponding
problem at Linderman school will be addressed. Third priority will be Fifth Avenue
W.N. in the Trinity Lutheran School area, followed by Wyoming Street near Russell
School.
Councilman Ruiz brought up the drainage problem at Northridge on the east side of
the Schwartz vacant lot, and Chairman O'Boyle stated that he had been contacted by
Dr. Flagg regarding drainage problems at his residence. The problem seems to be
the fact that his garage was built lower than the street. Chairman O'Boyle stated
that an understanding would be reached with Dr. Flagg that in the event the street
is reconstructed, the city would not be responsible for garage leakage. This area
is at 12th Street, between Main and First Avenue West.
A request has been received from the property owner next to the Coca Cola plant,
asking that the street be swept. It was determined that this property is within
the oil sprinkling area and has been swept periodically, but Street Foreman Clements
agreed to have it swept again.
Chairman O'Boyle will compile an updated list of street and alley repairs as well
as a listing of culverts to be removed.
The bids for gravel were discussed, Pack & Company did not submit a bid because there
was a problem with the Specs. The bid from McElroy & Wilken was lower than last
year's bid because the Specs were changed to allow for the city to do the hauling.
Since the bid was referred to the committee with power to act, and the price and
quality were satisfactory, the bid will be awarded to McElroy & Wilken.

The following streets and alleys that should have repairs made to them, culverts need
to be removed in many of the streets and avenues as they are either plugged or broken
up. This causes a drainage problem which then damages the surface.
1. Woodland Park overlay on the curb section of the driving lanes. Seal coat the
gravel driving lanes.
2. Do something about the "duck pond" by Linderman School, on First Street, between
1st and 2nd Avenues East.
3. Reconstruct a block or so on Fifth Avenue W.N. in the area of Trinity Lutheran
School.
4. Reconstruct Wyoming Street by Baptist Church.
5. West Colorado needs to be rebuilt, there is a piece of property that we have to
acquire for the completion of right-of-way.
6. Reconstruct 1 block of 12th Street West from Main to 1st Avenue West.
Chip and seal coat Meridian Road north from Highway #2 to Circle K Store.
Redo the intersection at lst Avenue E.N. on Oregon Street, also the intersection at
3rd Avenue E.N. and Oregon should be removed.
Remove curb between 4th and 5th Avenues E.N. on California Street; because of the con-
dition of the street and settling this should be replaced.
Repair some of the bad spots and overlay Meridian Road south of Highway #2 to 7th
Street West.
Rebuild 2# blocks on lst Street West from the alley of Jimmy's Shop, on west to 5th
Avenue W. that would complete this street through.
Center Street needs to be completed as to being rebuilt from 4th Avenue East to 6th
Avenue East. There may be a right-of-way problem here.
The street known as Crestline Road in Northridge needs looking at for reconstruction
and drainage.
The following avenues need consideration for reconstruction:
Fifth Avenue West
Third Avenue East
Fourth Avenue East
Many other areas should also be considered.
