Vote: Ayes 5, <br />Nays 0. <br />MAYOR/COUNCIL REPORT <br />Goetten reported that Orono resident, Summer Taylor, came to the last Highway 12 <br />Design Committee Meeting with a petition requesting that the Stubbs Bay Road access • <br />to Highway 12 be closed as soon as possible. Goetten said she is unsure whether this <br />road should be closed but would like to see the Council respond to this request. <br />Jabbour said he feels the road should be closed but the City needs to investigate whether <br />they are able to receive the 5% rebate from the railroad which is available when a <br />railroad crossing is eliminated. <br />Barrett cautioned the Council that the decision to close the road would be irrevocable <br />and difficult to gain back if it was abandoned. <br />Jabbour said the commitment would not be made at this time. <br />Kelley indicated that this road would be closed when Highway 12 reconstruction <br />occurred but reiterated Barrett's concern. Kelley said it was vital to make the residents <br />aware of a delayed response from the fire and police departments if such closure <br />occurred. He indicated that a letter should be sent to the residents regarding this <br />ramification. <br />10 <br />40 <br />
