A resident of 2684 DuhallowWay stated that in the area in which he lived, land was being sold by the Callan Company but that, as yet, there had been no lights installed, no parks and Coa~aon Greens developed. At the request of the City Council, City Attorney Noonan explained from the map the matter of the Co~mon Greens which were secured by a Holding Agreement with the Title Company and when the financing had been completed, the area once again goes back into the Holding Agreement and that part of the financing went to pay the taxes by the developer as well as other obligationst that they could not sell the property until the Comaon Greens had been developed. He further'explained the development of the park which was to take place on the area which was to first accommodate a school site. The resident further remarked that the lights were in much need due to the fog and dark- ness of the area which created a hazardous condition for pedestrians. Mr. Donald Grimes, 123 Francisco Drive, asked concerning the Council's earlier action on the road in Westborough, requesting to know what would happen to the water being drained from this roadway. Director of ~Jblic Works Louis Goss explained that the matter of the roadway in Westborough which had been acted on by Council earlier had not concerned a new installation bui rather a repair to defective conditions which had arisen and that there would be no change in the drainage. Mr. Grimes then brought to Council's attention the matter of rain water which again had run as a flood danger this morning, requesting to know what corrective action was going to be taken by the City. Director of Public Works Goss remarked that he had hoped to have the work of drainage in Francisco Terrace completed for Council this evening, but because of the failure of the roadway in Westborough and other pressing matters, necessitated his reasignment of work to these other areas. He stated that it was his intent to have this information for Council at their next regular meeting. Mr. Grimes then asked concerning the development of land in San Bruno up-hill from their area which would bring more water into the neighborhood as a result. City Manager Aiello explained the proposed bond issue which was to be on the ballot for the voters of San Bruno and which, if passed, would divert the waters to the navigable slough. Director of Public Works Goss statdd that in the subdivision of Tanforan properties, the Subdivision Agreement required that waters draining from that area be taken out to Shaw Road and then into the navigable slough. Brief discussion then followed concerning the matter of waters in Francisco Terrace.
