MATTERS INITIATED BY COUNCILMEMBERS Discussion Regardin~ the Hyde Park Project Mayor Mercer stated he requested this item be placed on the agenda after a discussion with Mr. Persky. Mr. Robert Persky, 4276 Churchill Drive, stated that a satisfactory solu- tion to the fence, tree, and sidewalk problems has not been resolved in the Churchill Drive area, after four years of efforts on the part of the property owners, City Council, and City staff. He presented background information, stating that Council approved a tree removal plan in the amount of $20,000.00, to be paid by America Savings. He advised the Hyde Park Homeowners originally agreed to this plan, but later decided that some of the eucalyptus trees should be saved. American Savings has never paid any money toward these im- provements. A new plan has now been presented that will cost approximately $34,700.00, that would save and trim some of the eucalyptus trees and remove and replace others. He stated the trees adversely impact Churchill Drive homes and he would like them all removed and replaced with more appropriate shrubbery. Mr. Persky stated that at one time the $20,000.00 was sufficient to perform the requested improvements; now there is a conflict between Hyde Park Homeowners and American Savings and nothing has been done about the im- provements. He felt City staff had not fairly represented the Churchill Drive property owners. Mr. Cal Heihn, 4356 Fairlands Drive, President of the Hyde Park Homeowners Association, stated that the proposed improvements do something to their prop- erty; their titles are free and clear and should not be encroached upon. He stated their homeowners group originally agreed to the proposed improvement plan; later when nothing was done some of the property owners decided that several of the eucalyptus trees should be saved. He stated his group has tried to cooperate; they had worked out a deal until American Savings did not come through with the $20,000.00. He felt to blame the Hyde Park Homeowners Association because of American Savings' lack of commitment is unfair. He stated he would not subject his 35'homeowners to a solution that is not fair to them. He added that American Savings has been uncooperative in his at- tempts to reach them by telephone to discuss this matter. - 3 11-3-87
