rison Avenue. Mr. Lickton stated most of the present right-of-way is
66 feet. This is sufficient to provide 40 feet pavement and two by-
strips for sidewalks, utility poles and a parking strip. Mr. Reade
suggested that utility pole lines be located at the junction of right--
of-gray and property line which would permit development of the entire

portion of the right-of--way Is 60 feet. After further discussion,
