The'- above-referenced property does not meet the requirements as set forth in the aforementioned Code,. paragraph (e) because an existing sidewalk is located within 200 feet of the property (on Otten Street). Therefore, I cannot grant a temporaD' waiver of the sidewalk installation requirement on the above- referenced property and your request is denied. An on-site inspection of this property located a citrus tree, two small palm trees, and two other trees in the approximate path of the sidewalk. Sidewalks are required to be placed one foot from the property line and, since these trees are very young and can be easily relocated, it is suggested that you do so to a point where limbs as the trees mature will not interfere with the use of the sidewalk. Also, the several short posts which have been installed in the right- of-way must be removed. cc: Elizabeth S. Haeseker, Assistant City Manager Edward V.

The Owner understands and agrees that if the waiver is granted, the City may install sidewalks at a future date and assess the owner for the full cost of said sidewalks. ~<I~ ~.' er r-.owner' s Representative &J3//fr Date Subscribed and sworn to before me this .3/ day of ~~ , 19~b.

City Manager FROM: Keith Crawford, Traffic Engineering Director I r ('11 ',u \' ( 1~ ; \i (:-5 '.) ',.J' \J COPIES: E. Bethel, Building Dept. Director SUBJECT: Sidewalk Waiver: 1794 Weston Drive DATE: November 7, 1985 The above property is located on the southwest corner of Otten Street and Weston Drive. Sidewalks are to be installed on Otten Street and is not disputed by the property owner. The owner's main contention is that the sidewalk on Weston will not go any place beyond his property. The city owns all the property to the south and may elect to continue the sidewalks southward along the back of the Kings Highway Recreation Center property. Since the sidewalk is to be installed on Otten Street and the sidewalk on Weston Drive will connect to that sidewalk, there does not appear to be a basis for granting the waiver. Incidental to this request is the fact that the owner has planted a citrus tree, two small palm trees and two other trees in the approxunate path of the sidewalk. Since these trees are very young and can be easily relocat~d, it is my belief that the owner should be instructed to remove the trees from the sidewalk area and relocate them to a point where the limbs will not interfere with the use of the sidewalk as the trees grow larger. Also, several short posts have been installed in the right-of-way and are of the type which have been ordered r~~oved from other locations in the city. 1<0 KC/sn Attachment (Original)
