Commissioner Eggert believed this portion of 16th Street is <br />being used as a by-pass for Route 60. She felt there are some <br />steps short of having it closed off that need to be looked into <br />and that we should send it to Public Works Director Jim Davis and <br />on through the Transportation Planning Committee for their <br />recommendations. <br />Commissioner Scurlock noted that when we came up with the <br />Bike Path Plan, he raised some questions because that plan showed <br />a path that came down 16th off the existing sidewalk system, <br />extended on down Rosewood to King's Highway and then was planned <br />eventually to follow a route in front of the Community College <br />and on out 16th, and he believed we don't even have R/W past 74th <br />Ave. In addition to that, from the Community College on down, it <br />is a narrow dirt, basically grove road, and even on our agenda <br />today, we are still dealing with problems on Lundberg Road. He <br />believed we need to readdress this or take a look at 16th. <br />Obviously, it is significantly different than Route 60 and some <br />of the other roads that have some ability to be major E/W roads <br />leading from somewhere to somewhere, which 16th does not. He <br />felt we need to consolidate our plans as to what we are going to <br />do and determine if this road is the same as 4th Street and 12th <br />Street. <br />Commissioner Bowman believed there is a long range plan to <br />take that dogleg out and.extend 16th west in a more direct <br />fashion. <br />George Beuttell, 5480 Rosewood Road, took the floor and read <br />a petition signed by over 100 residents of the area: <br />13 PUCIK i 7 34` <br />JUL <br />
