Craig expressed concern over the water problem in the
area indicating a large number of septic tanks could
pollute the City's water. He stated he thought when the
Council originally allowed five acre tracts there was a
stipulation they could not be subdivided.
Dugan indicated he was not aware of such a stipulation;
however, there were some regulatory items which would
prevent subdivision except in some unusual situations.
He said regulatory items such as the lots having to
front on a public road, need for an environmental impact
statement and water and sewer requirements.

explained the problem with traffic in the Pike Street N.E.

closure of Pike Street. He felt it would show the people
the City's good faith.

a public street put in by public funds. He wondered if
there was something else that could be done.

different ways and even though it was a drastic measure it
was the only way he could see.
Whittall asked about emergency access. Chief Johnson indi-
cated he did not see it as a problem. Wisner wondered about
the plans of the Comprehensive Street plan. Craig indicated
it was never conceived as a through street.
