r REGULAR NiEETING OF TIiE OROP10 COUNCIL, FEBRUARY 23, 1978 Page 2 That your Affiant and his wife, Norma J. Johnson, PUBLIC HEARING are the owners of all buildable property abutting Partenwood Lane Vacate on said Partenwood Lane and there is not now, nor (Continued) is there contemplated, that in the immediate future . any construction will take place on the parcels abutting Partenwood Lane. That in originally laying out the Subdivision for Partenwood, it seened, on a preliminary analysis, to be desirable to have the short dead-end street known as Partenwood Lane, extending upward where it is now located. Subsequently, however, observaton has been made that this is a difficult road to serve for the reason that snowplows have great difficulty in making the turn and gaining access to. that upper road as, of course, would the postmen, should mail boxes be located in that area. Furthermore, it is not contemplated that school buses would ever serve in the area so that no purpose_ could possibly be served in that regard. In addition, Partenwood Lane is merely a short dead-end street and not as long as some of the private driveways to residences bordering on Tonkawa Road in that ir.unediate vicinity. In addition to the foregoing, the cul-de-sac at• �he upper end of Partenwood Lane has been the cause of much concern to, not only the Petitioner, but also to other residents in the Partenwood area. The reason is that the cul-de-sac, which is not observable from Partenwood Road, is frequented by grnups of cars stopping there for no purpose in any way related to anyone living in the Partenwood area. The occupants of these cars often engage in drinking parties and on a regular basis whiskey bottles, beer cans and all manner of debris are littered on the upper cul-de-sac. �n addition, that cul-de-sac is quite frequently visited by hotrod cars who will engage in spinning around in circles and the racing out of the Partenwood ar<�a, all of which is not only a great source of a.r oyance but also a matter of concern for those t ::�ple in the Partenwood area who have small children i_requently walking the streets, not� only anonc� the ,... neighboring houses but also to catch the school bus at the entrance to Partenwood. More recently, a load of debris in the form of branches and clippings and brush has been duinped on the cul-de-sac by unknown persons, all of which adds to the dismay of everyone living in the area and is, consequently, not onlv unpleasant but burdensome to remove.
