AYE ALL IN FAVOR NAY NONE OPPOSED MOTION CARRIED

MOTION BY Mr. Lake to adopt Resolutions 2005-34. Seconded by Mr. Yelding.

The Council had questions regarding the service road extending from Hwy 98 to County Road 181 and asked for more information regarding where the road will start and stop, what is the cost, and who will pay for it from Representative Randy Davis before they voted on the Resolution.

Mr. Lake withdrew his motion until they receive more information on this proposed By-Pass.

Mr. Yelding withdrew his second to the motion.
 

The Council instructed the City Clerk to contact Mr. Davis and get the information requested.
 
Mr. Eady suggested that the Council take a look at the proposed plans for the road, even going up to where the road is proposed to intersect. He feels this will burden the traffic flow in that area more than it is now.

Mr. Burnam said that this needs to be addressed with Cypress Equities, Representative Davis and maybe ALDOT when gathering the information.

Mr. Eslava said he will be meeting with ALDOT and would see what information he can gather on the subject.
