should be studied further in order ro make e well informed decision-
Mr. Drago referred to liesolution 9]-899 which says, no petitions from property
rs shall be required for pnving o[a street however, if e petition is received
ftom 51 % objecting the street may be exempted from paving. h also says the
Commission nay corrsidu installation of sewer lines at thie nine-
Mt. Drago said he had draEeU a pavin¢ schedule to complete the dirt strews

that the City circulate a petition asking iE Sewer lines should be installed.

Commissioner Miles wondered ifa resolution was the right way, perhaps an
ordinance would be more appropriate.
Mayor Lovestrand questioned ifa resolution was legally sufficient and ifa public
hearing oould be held with a resolution
Mr_ Taylor said he thought a resolution was legally sufficim[t and a public hearing
could be held, however, the better way, he thought was to do by ordinance.
Deputy Mayor Miller amended hia motion to substiurte the word
ordinance for resolution. Amwtded motion seconded by Commissioner
Vacca.
