City Council Minutes -2- September 14, 1982
C. Temporary By-pass for Valley View Road
Council members discussed the feasibility of a temporary by-pass road
through the Arbor Glen development to provide a 2nd access to the Topview
area which has been cut-off due to road construction at the Baker Road/
Valley View Road intersection. City Manager Jullie reported the estimated
cost to be $2,000 - $3,000. In view of this cost, plus the fact that
public safety vehicles could still get through and that the new road will
be open by mid-October, the Council decided to take no action on this
matter.
