On the 14th I called the County for the road grader for Saturday the 18th and was told that it was to go to AltaMOIl:te Springs. I again called on the 20th and had it set up for the grader to work on the 25th. On the 23rd the Chief of Police brought two YIElD signs to my home that someone had pulled out from the corners of Tradewinds and South Edgemon and Panama and South Edgemon. He also reported that the culvert pipe under South Edgemon just off the hard road was caving in. On checking this out I found that the 36ft rounti corrigated pipe was bent down at one of the joints and cracking open. There was a very bad hole in the middle of the road. This was apparently done from heavy loads on this road. On Sat.-tI:a7, the 25th, Mr. Prescott brought his loader and truck to fix the culver". pj.pe on South Edgemon. With the loader he bent the pipe back up into position and hauled in eleven loads of clay, at a cost of $50.00 for hauling and equipment. One load of clay was put at each bus stop. .r- The County road grader grated North Edgemon, South Edgemon, Tradewinds, Moss Road, .Bahama from Hayes to Moss and Pana:ma;. from Hayes to South Edgemon, at a cost o;f :!li5.oo to the County for rental of the grader, and $25.00 to t,he operator. The Village borrowed Mr. Prescott's tractor and box blade on the 25th to level Sunrise, Morton Lane, Fisher and Arnold Lane at a cost of 2.47 ;for gas. On the 26th the YIEID sign at the corner of Lombarciy and South Fairfax was put back in place and the signs at Tradewinds and Panama were also reinstalled. l-1r. Roger Williams, of Apopka, who owns Lot 4, Section E in the Rancu., requested the Village to clear the road by his .property so he could sell it. Request denied since Mr. Williams does not live in the Village nor pay taxes.
