Mr. Robert E. Jacobs, 19318 Proctor Road, appeared before the City Council regarding an administrative subdivision proposed for his property at the above address, and also regarding an ordinance relative to the firing of firearms within the city limits. The City Administrator indicated that the City, at this time, does not have an ordinance addressing the firing of firearms within the city limits. The City Administrator explained that the old ordinance for the old town- ship prohibits the firing of firearms within 500 feet of a residence, and the ordinance for the old city prohibits the firing of firearms within the city. The City Administrator indicated that in the review and adoption of the new city code for the whole city, the firing of firearms within the city would be addressed. The City Administrator explained that Mr. Robert E. Jacobs has proposed an administrative subdivision for his property at 19318 Proctor Road, which would split the parcel into three parcels, and further explained that a public hearing regarding the administrative subdivision would be held at the July 6, 1981 City Council meeting. 5. Old Highway 11101 (CSAH 114Z) Bridge Replacement Mr. Darrell Berkowitz, of Tolz, King, Duvall and Anderson, and Mr. John Mullen of Barton-Aschmann and Associates, were present to review the process to date of the replacement of the Old Highway 11101 Bridge. Mr. Darrell Berkowitz reviewed the different alternates considered for the re- placement of the bridge and explained their recommendations of alternate lit' which replaces the existing bridge at approximately the same alignment as now exists. Mr. Berkowitz explained that the other alternates consisting of direct connection to the Main Street,Irving Street and Jackson Streets, respectively, were physically possible but not practictl because of the major amounts of expensive right-of-way that would be required for the construction, because the access to existing businesses and homes along the alternates would be eliminated, with no feasible way of providing access and because Main Street could not be feasibly con~cted to the alignments because of the differences in elevation existing be- tween Main Street and the alternates.
