<br />D. Use of the road under the terms of that certain Easement Agreement, dated

<br />they are expensive and experience mechanical problems. Jabbour stated that a one -way driveway
<br />is probably the best solution to limit the amount of traffic and to alleviate the safety concerns raised
<br />by having to make two left -hand turns. Jabbour remarked that this issue could perhaps be revisited
<br />in one to two years.
<br />Sansevere stated that he would like to see some type of guarantee that this road is only being
<br />accessed by Club members and not guests of a wedding party, for example, or other major social
<br />event that is held at the Club.
<br />McCarthy noted that the Club does not host very many weddings and that their proposal will not
<br />cause a major influx of people on this road.
<br />Mayor Jabbour noted that the original proposal from Woodhill Country Club did propose a one -way
<br />system.
<br />Flint suggested that a conceptual motion be made outlining the various conditions that the City is
<br />proposing to impose and then Woodhill Country Club will have an opportunity to review that motion
<br />before the next City Council meeting.
<br />Flint moved to conceptually approve Application #2484, Woodhill Country Club, 200 Woodhill
<br />Road, and to authorize City Staff to draft a resolution for City Council consideration at their
<br />May 24, 1999 meeting, subject to the following items that are outlined in Bruce Malkerson's
<br />May 4, 1999 letter to the City Council:
<br />Item G, The Club shall install agate across the road which shall be locked at all times (this
<br />is Club's request numbers 1 and 2 with a clarification), except when used as follows:
<br />•
<br />A. Use of the road by emergency vehicles (police, fire, ambulance and utility).
