FRONTAGE ROAD CONCEPT PLANS APPROVED FOR N.E. QUADRANT OF CROSSTOPIN H1GHI;IAY AND COUNTY ROAD 18. Mr. West advised Council that the Planning Commission-had adopted a resolution at its last meeting asking the Village Council to author- ize the Village Engineering Department to make an estimate of the cost of both a detached and attached frontage road along the Crosstown Highway. Robert E. Hansen, owner of the property adjacent to the Northeast quadrant of County Road 18 and the Crosstown Highway, urged constrgction of an attached frontage road, contending that a detached frontage road would be more costly and take land that he could use for another purpose. Ponsnick, president of Builtwell, Inc. , who now owns the Peterson, Cardarelle, Hartwick site, said that he is not interested in a detached frontage road. Mr. Hyde added that Fabri-Tek has indicated that they have no interest in the detached frontage road. Mr. Hansen urged connection of an attached frontage road so - that there would be access to it from Vernon Avenue. Mr. Dunn advised that the County has not granted approval for construction of the Crosstown Front- age Road from Gleason Road to Vernon Avenue as the.Village had previously requested.

Motion was seconded by Councilman Shaw and carried.
