Louisville City Council Meeting January 2, 2001 Page 10. City Attorney Light stated that if there is a long existing access off Highway 42 and it is closed, the property owner of residential use, is entitled to access somewhere else. Davidson clarified that the current access from Highway 42 is the historic access right for this residential driveway~ Light asked if the additional 8' of access easement would be immediately available for emergency vehicles. He stated that the original 20' is for public access, therefore the additional 8' should be subject to access for emergency vehicles. Davidson suggested an amendment that condition number 3 of Resolution No. 2, be left as written and Council instruct the City Attorney and Staff to work out the details, subject to the Mayor's approval. Sisk accepted the amendment. Davidson called for a second on the motion. Brown seconded the motion. Davidson restated the motion: Council approve Resolution No. 2, Series 2001, and authorize the City Attorney and Staff to modify condition No. 3, subject to the Mayor's approval. Mayer asked for clarification that the agreement is that in return for the additional 8' access, the application will have a lower open space dedication somewhere else and that the future open space dedication is reduced in order to have the 8' access easement. Brown stated that was his understanding. VOTE: Roll call vote was taken. The motion carried by a vote of 4-1. Mayer voted no. Absent - Howard, Keany - excused.
