Mr. Brent Wilcox, representing his parents at 3998 Stanley Boulevard, stated he strongly agrees that Stanley Boulevard should be 66 feet wide, not 84 feet. He stated he prefers Alternate "D" with right turns only onto Del Valle. He stated that Alternate "C" would be his second choice. Mr. Bill Lensen, 3950 Stanley Boulevard and with a business at 699 Peters Avenue, stated he favors Alternate "D". He stated the traffic problems in the downtown area are compounded by the overall growth of the City, the proposed consolidation of the railroad tracks, and the off-setting intersections. He felt to add more off-setting intersections would not be good traffic planning. He stated he found the questionnaire circulated by the Del Valle Committee to be easy to understand. He suggested leaving out sidewalks on Stanley Boulevard, and to not displace people. He urged approval of Plan "D". Mr. Joe Madden, 1544 Santa Rita Road, stated that in light of the high priority of other improvements, Phase 2 of the Del Valle widening to the Auf der Maur property should not be considered until much later on. He felt that traffic circulation from Main Street to First Street should be the first consideration. This concluded the public testimony. After consideration Council discussion, it was moved by Councilmember But- ler, and seconded by Councilmember Wood, that Resolution No. 85-529, approving Alternate "A", Alternate "A" is similar in alignment to the existing plan line that was developed in 1967; this alignment follows the alignment of the Arroyo del Valle with long sweeping curves, tieing back to existing Stanley Boulevard approximately half way between Main Street and First Street, with Stanley Boulevard not being a cul-de-sac, with right turn in and right turn out only, and with a 66 ft. right-of-way, be adopted.
