THE CITY ENGINEER reported on a request by Max McClintock for permissi
to cut and install driveway approaches 48 feet wide on Tulane Avenue and on Otto
Avenue to serve as off-street parking for two four-plexes, and recommended Mr.
McClintock be allowed to construct the extra wide driveway approach on Tulane
providing all vehicles are parked on private property; but strongly recommended
against any extra wide driveway approach on Otto Avenue as it has developed into
a heavily used collector and the backing movement from "recessed type" parking
would be dangerous and detrimental to the flow of traffic, and recommended no
more than a normal driveway approach on Otto Avenue with turn around space provi
on private property.
