Re: Res. 5049 of GT ?&-I4 (A) Para. 16 and Proj. No. 77-16
Dear Members of the Council:
After meeting with the City Ebgineer and representatives of McPIillin Development and The Highland Company, we wish to advise that
we stand ready, willing and able to pay our share for improving Elm
Avenue east of El Cdno Real. Also, we are opposed to releasing the
bond on Tract 74-I4 until these improvements are completed. The time
Limit has already passed for the Elm Avenue improvements but should be
extended a reasonable time. He had plans to complete the whole street
some time ago, but one of the participants can not perform now because
of finsncia.1 difficulties.
Our main reason to complete the 28 ft. street is to get the
big trucks off from Appian Road at all hours of the night and day and
eliminate the traffic hazard at El Camino Real and Aopiari Road.
In addition, we have agreed to improve the southwest corner
of Appian Woad and Elm Avenue if we secure Parcel A of Partition Map
823 from The Highland Company and the City of Carlsbad will vacate
Appian Road between this parcel and OUT Lot 1 of Tr. 76-2.
Please advise if we can furnish any additional informa.tion.
Yours very truly,
F
