Spring Street PURPOSE The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and members of the City Council with information relating to the installation of a fence upon a portion of a public right-of-way north of 1100 N. Spring Street . BACKGROUND The property owners of 1100 N. Spring Street, James and Michelle Cosgriff have requested to install a forty-two inch (42") high cast iron fence upon a portion of a public right-of-way directly north of their property at 1100 N. Spring Street . The subject public right-of-way is a small strip of land adjacent to the brick roadway which N. Spring Street dead ends into. Currently, there are flower beds on a portion of the subject public right-of-way that the Cosgriffs maintain. The Cosgriffs have requested the installation of a fence to prevent trespassers from uprooting the perennials planted in that area. This is a particular concern for the Cosgriffs in the winter months, when area children and adults use the portion of their property adjacent to the brick roadway as a sled hill . Staff has inspected the proposed location of the fence and has determined that there is no practical alternative for installing the fence in another location. Attached along with this memo is a copy of the license agreement, aerial photograph with parcel lines, a plat of survey, and photographs of the proposed location of the fence. • r, License Agreement to Install a Fence at 1100 N.
