benefiting more than he, as a ·farmer, benefits.
NORMAN REMUS stated that he felt that a stop sign should
be placed at the exit from Lake View Hills onto Lake
Riley Blvd. Also that cars are parked on boths sides of
the road near his home, almost blocking passage and creating
a traffic hazard. Also that there should be a sign placed
at the edge of his property indi€ating a culvert opening.

coating costs and his concern was that the traffic speed
had increased on the Lake Lucy Road since the improvement
and he felt that more speed limit signs should be installed.

traffic. He feels that the residents who live on this
road are paying an unfair share of the cost of this
seal coating.
