Title
Adoption of Resolution upholding the requirement for constructing an eight-foot wide pathway along the westerly side of Crooks Road between Auburn Road and the Deerfield Elementary School
Body
Whereas, the Crooks Road reconstruction project proposes to remove and replace the existing eight-foot wide pathway along the westerly side of Crooks between Auburn Road and Deerfield Elementary School, and
Whereas, the Road Commission for Oakland County has indicated that the relocation of the Detroit Edison utility will be permitted at the road right-of-way line in an above ground aerial line and pole installation, and
Whereas, the Road Commission for Oakland County has inquired whether the City of Rochester Hills would want to reduce the minimum eight-foot wide pathway width to a six-foot wide pathway in the above referenced section, and
Whereas, the six-foot wide pathway would be a variance from the required eight-foot width required by the City's Master Plan for pathway construction and would also present some disadvantages for future maintenance of said pathway section.
Resolved, that the Rochester Hills City Council upholds the requirement for constructing an eight-foot wide pathway along the westerly side of Crooks Road between Auburn Road and Deerfield Elementary School.
