BooK 48 FA,E 585 <br />JAN 2 0198;. <br />Engineer Davis stated that staff recommended the <br />Preliminary Assessment roll be approved based upon <br />computation by front footage ownership for the paving of <br />14th Avenue from 7th Street to 8th Street. He added that <br />they have discussed this matter with the property owners and <br />there were no adverse feelings. <br />The Chairman asked if there was any one present <br />who wished to be heard. <br />Mr. Malinos, 716 14th Avenue, asked the Board if <br />side guard rails would be constructed. <br />Engineer Jim Davis stated that guard rails had not <br />been included in the design of the road, at the intersection <br />of 14th Avenue and 8th Street, but they would be installing <br />a culvert with end walls and there would be appropriate <br />shoulders. He added that the length of the culvert was 40' <br />and the road was 201. Engineer Davis calculated that the <br />guard rails would be approximately $700, or $70 more per <br />family. <br />Attorney Brandenburg interjected that adding guard <br />rails at this time might raise some objections as it would <br />be increasing the scope of the original work, which was not <br />in the resolution that was adopted. He suggested that the <br />scope of work not be increased at this time. <br />Lengthy discussion followed, and it was determined <br />that the guard rails could be added after the culvert was <br />built. One gentleman,, who lived in the same neighborhood, <br />did not think guard rails were necessary. <br />Chairman Scurlock indicated that it was the <br />Board's desire to comply with the wishes of the people but <br />felt they must comply with the assessment resolution; the <br />guard rails could be done later. <br />Mr. Newcomb, 715 15th Avenue, inquired if the cost <br />of the culvert was buried in the estimated cost for fixing <br />the road. <br />
