Our <br />share of the cost is $12,233 for 690' which <br />is to be paid in two years with 12% interest. <br />81 PAPIE 756 <br />This will cause a severe financial burden on an <br />already big mortgage payment that is taking every <br />penny of church contributions. This would prevent <br />us from being able to pay our weekly bills. <br />Some of the residents on 44th Avenue that <br />originally signed the petition for paving, <br />are now content with the road remaining unpaved <br />because it has been blocked off to thru traffic. <br />In addition, they sympathize with our church's <br />financial situation. <br />There -are so many other heavily travelled roads <br />that need to be paved, that it seems unnecessary <br />to pave 44th Avenue. <br />This topic is scheduled for October 23rd and <br />your understanding of our critical situation <br />would be greatly appreciated. <br />Sincerely yours, <br />Mrs. Gentile advised that we also have received a petition <br />from 10 people opposing the project, which petition is on file in <br />the Office of Clerk to the Board. When the project was <br />originally proposed, we had a petition with 73% favoring it, and <br />the improvement was approved on September 25th by the Board <br />of County Commissioners. <br />Chairman Eggert believed that the letters received in opposi- <br />tion to the project were all from members of the church located <br />in this neighborhood. <br />The Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if anyone <br />wished to be heard. <br />40 <br />
