MINUTES OP THE PLANNING COWIISSION MEETING FEBRUARY 20, 1990 <br />11490 K-P PROPERTIES CONT. <br />Mr. Peterson replied that there was a legal opinion that <br />stated if the City maintains a road for more than six years, it <br />is considered City right-of-way. He said that the City Public <br />Works Director had Indicated that the City has maintained North <br />Arm Lane for 21 years. <br />Mr. Laverne Dunsmore, 420 North Arm Drive, was concerned <br />about the City's claim to the road. He said that he has the <br />smallest lot along that road and does not want to see the road <br />widened because it will severely impact his property. <br />Mabusth replied that more than likely the City will not ask <br />for any additional right-of-way from his property. <br />Mr. Dunsmore said that due to the Lakeview Golf Course <br />Clubhouse being located at that intersection, cars currently park <br />on the road. He is afraid that parking will increase if the road <br />is widened. He said he is not opposed to the building of new <br />homes, but objects to the widening of the road. <br />Mr. Rod Backerud, 360 North Arm Lane, concurred with Mr. <br />Dunsmore. <br />Kelley asked Mr. Backerud if he would like to have the City <br />continue to maintain North Arm Lane? <br />Mr. Backerud replied that he did not think that the land <br />owners along North Arm Lane would object to maintaining the road <br />themselves. <br />Mr. Roscoe Smith, 370 North Arm Lane, said that he is <br />opposed to the additional right-of-way because it will have an <br />impact on the mature maple trees and landscaping on his property. <br />Cohen asked whether North Arm Lane would have to be 50' if <br />the City continues to maintain it. <br />Mabusth said there had been informal discussions regarding <br />the maximum of right-of-way that would be needed to maintain the <br />public roadway and whether the 33' would be sufficient. She <br />said, however, that would not be* in keeping with City policy. <br />She added that North Arm Lane may be an important link when <br />looking at an overall transportation system. <br />Bellows said that the City has to initiate a strict policy regarding roads. <br />Mr. Dick Armstrong, said that his mother owns North Arm <br />Lane. lie said that he would not object to the additional right- <br />of-way being taken provided that it is taken from both sides of <br />the road. <br />I
