PAGE TWO NAME OF

value of the houses and how much the City paid for them.
The Mayor indicated his desire to have this as an agenda
item for the next regular Commission meeting, and he
asked George Worley to identify ownership and any other
specific information concerning the Francis Avenue
properties.
Dave Siebert, 816 Cavalla, spoke concerning his desire to
construct a fence behind his property. He explained he
was not able to do this, however, because the property
was a fire lane. He felt the fire lane had been ignored
by the City. Gorge Worley explained that through codes
enforcement the city was trying to keep this alley clear
and that the City intended to place signs on each end of
the fire lane. He explained the Fire Department needed
the fire lane open so that they could get to the back of
the building in the event of a fire. The Mayor asked
George Worley to contact Chief Rew once again to make
sure the fire lane was necessary, and to investigate if
the property was designated to be a fire lane when it was
sold to the owners. Chief Thompson indicated once signs
are in place, the Police Department would be able to
-nforce the law by ticketing or towing cars illegally
arked in the fire lane.

right-of-ways, as indicated on the plan, and Tucker

but he felt the width of the sidewalks should be
reviewed. It was agreed Chief Thompson would review the
