Origin of Project
In April, 1970, a paving petition was accepted with valid signatures of the
owners of 53 per cent of the abutting property. The paving of the street was
delayed as a nesult of litigation agaWt Lhe sale of ban and in November,
1972, all the abutting property owners were re-polled to determine their current
desires regarding improving East 12th Street. The re-poll resulted in the owners
of 58 per cent of the abutting property voting for permanent pavement. however,
in April, 1973, after bids were received and the neighborhood meeting conducted,
the majority of the owners (56.1 per cent) indicated that they were against
the improvements. The majority of the owners stated that since the County had
hot-topped the street, they no longer desired that the City do the paving. The
street was deleted from the paving project at the Benefit Hearing on June 11,
1973 (M&C G-2205) .
On NArch 4, 1977, a paving petition was received In the Assessment Paving Office,
signed by the awners of 50.2 per cent of the adjacent property, requesting the
street be improved to City standards complete with curb, gutter and driveway
approaches.
Implay2ments
East 12th Street will be improved with residential grade hot-mix asphaltic con-
crete pavement with concrete curb, gutter and driveway approaches and required
drainage appurtenances.
