No. 7 - Rutledge Street, was requested by all the owners living on the street,
but less than 50 per cent of the owners of all abutting property. A railroad,
which opposes the project, owns property on the south side of Rutledge Street.
Owners of ten parcels on the north side of the street are evenly divided for and
against the paving, and one of the two owners living on the street now opposes
the paving as indicated on the post card survey. Rutledge Street, located par-

one-half of the block. The remainder is graveled and because of industrial
activity in the area is heavily traveled and dusty.
The number of units initiated by the City is higher than usual' because this
type of work was delayed earlier in 1965 to insure adequate funds for peti-
tioned projects. The following units were initiated by the City for the
following reasons :
Unit 1, Neville Street: The intersection improvements at the intersection
of Camp Bowie, Merrick and Pershing have made it necessary for traffic
moving east on Pershing to enter Camp Bowie on Neville, which is a short
block to the east of the intersection. On September 28, 1964 (M&C G-699)
the Council granted authority to prepare plans and specifications for this
unit.
Units 3 and 4, Eldridge Street: These units were initiated in connection
with the petition to pave Geddes Avenue, Unit 2. Paving these two blocks
of Eldridge Street will provide paved access from Geddes Avenue north to
south service road of the freeway. See Attached A-2.
Unit 5, Wellesley Avenue and
Unit 6, Lisbon Street: The paving of these units will complete the paving
within each block, the major portion being already paved. Each unit is a
very short section which will provide continuous paving within the block.
Unit 8, Kenley Street: This unit was initiated in connection with the peti-
tion to pave Kenley Street, Unit 9. Paving this unit will provide continu-
ous paving on Kenley Street north of the West Freeway Service Road.
Unit 10, Seminary Drive: Seminary Drive west of Wichita Street to Mansfield
Highway was originally a 30 foot county road. The area has become highly
developed and commercial in character. As new buildings were erected, the
City made plans for a 60 foot street and obtained additional right-of-way
by purchase and dedication. Paving tie-ins were made to extend the roadway
15 feet to each side as new curb and gutter was installed. One parcel of
additional right-of-way was acquired on December 13, 1965 (M&C L-915), and
independent appraisals are now being acquired prior to negotiating for a
piece of right-of-way at Riverside Drive. All other right--of-way has been
donated or dedicated.
Paving Seminary Drive will up-grade the street by replacing the present
inferior roadway which is basically a county type penetration asphalt
street with temporary widening of 15 feet on each side with a permanently
paved 60 foot roadway. Seminary Drive from Mansfield Highway to Wichita
Street is included in the 1965 Capital Improvement Program (A-190) as an
assessment paving project.
Seminary Drive from Wichita east to 0llie was previously paved with propert
owner participation, but it is proposed that the roadway is b recon-
structed and widened from 30 feet to 40 feet at Wichita Stree %Q1jjWa"RE9QR
tions to a 30 foot roadway at 011ie Street. This widening an &recnjig
tion east of Wichita Street is necessary to facilitate the p1 sFili
zation at Wichita and Seminary and to serve the adjacent comm r j,,
is
zoned property adequately. '� �
