PUBLIC AGENDA
PETITION NUMBER 3762 was filed by Bud Clovis for the City Commission
not to permit the Salina flood protection levee south of Magnolia Road to be
used as a jogging trail or running track. It is believed that such proposed use
would not be in the best interests of the City of Salina at large, and that such
use would be very harmful and detrimental to those who own and use property
adjoining such levee. It should be pointed out that the proposed use is a
departure from the original purposes of the project and was not contemplated at
the time of the original condemnation proceedings.
The Commissioners discussed the use of the levee as a jogging track
and the cost of modifying the gates.
A motion was made by Commissioner Duckers, seconded by Commissioner
Hodges to accept and file the petition. Ayes: (5). Nays: (0). Motion carried.

and the extension of Saturn Avenue from Ninth Street through its intersection
with said Century Plaza Drive. A motion was made by Commissioner Allen, seconded
by Commissioner Duckers to refer the petition to the City Engineer for a
recommendation. Ayes: (5). Nays: (0). Motion carried.

vacate an alley running south from an alley between the 100 blocks of South
