Dear Sirs:

We are writing in regards to the condition of the West Side of
Lobb Ave.

Due to all the construction now in progress Lobb Ave. has deteriorated
considierably to the point where it is impossible for us to back out

of our drive way. ‘fe must now go backwards, which is not legal, all the
way to Shaughnessy Sc., which at times is very hair - raising with all
the vehicals from sub-trades, big trucks coming down the road etc.

Now with the additional development (re the rezoning proposed, which

we are sure will pass hearings) further down Lobb Ave., we feel,

Lobb Ave. should be upgraded to include proper paving, curbs, storm
sewers and what ever else is necessary to ensure us, the exisiting

tax payers, that we do not have to put up with a road that will
breakdown with all this additional traffic, not to mention the

safety hazzards involved. This was discussed at the Council Hearing
before the first development was passed, which is now being constructed.

After living at this address for the past 14 years we have seen
what damage the water run-off from Shaughnessy St. has done to
what is now left of Lobb Ave.

At this time we would also like to express our dismay at learning
the developer who is building next to us only has to put up a
$500.00 Damage Bond, because the damage done to the lane, our fence
garage and yard we feel exceeds this figure. As a home owner and
tax payer what protection do we have?
