REGULAR MEETING JULY 8, 1985
<br />These are just some of the traffic and safety concerns which are currently problems
<br />in our area.
<br />We believe that these concerns coupled with the quality of life which "a"
<br />Residential Zoning is to promote and protect, are more than sufficient grounds to
<br />vote against Bill No. 23 -85, at tonight's City Council meeting.
<br />We thank you for your time and consideration.
