Anticipated Lack of a cul-de-sac at the end of the road: A cul-de-sac is claimed to be necessary to permit turn around for the public and fire trucks. The road will he posted "dead-end in addition to "local traffic only." Thus, members of the public, unless visiting residents along the road, will not use the road. Visitors, and the occasional lookers who travel the road, will have multiple opportunities to turn around in the driveways along the road. This has worked adequately during the past year when the road has been closed. Fire hydrants for the affected property owners are located behind the homes, not in front. Thus access for these hydrants is through Minnetonka Beach not along Crystal Bay Road There is no turnaround behind the homes presently and a fire truck would have to back up following a fire regardless of what is done with Crystal Bay Road. Further, if' a fire truck comes in the front and cannot turn around in a driveway following a fire fire trucks are now equipped with reverse gears and can back up. It is the residents' position that a dead-end road with no cul-de-sac is preferable to an open read that is not restricted to local traffic as intended. - 3 - -r 7SESss:mM "‘■f- h- int€ chil 3968S
