O•Melveny & Myers, Attorneys, stated there was no way possible, once the award of bid was made and the work completed, to correct the situation and put the drive- ways back in shape. The Central Avenue project was started and practically completed prior to the time the City's new engineer reported for work. The City Engineer anticipated this problem and wrote a letter to each home owner.in the area informing them the driveway s could not be replaced under this Improvement Act. Since that time several letters have been received from residents in the area complaining about the situation. The Council has the alternative of.proceeding with the improvement as originally planned, or throwing the entire proceeding out and start over and include in the original project to replace the driveways that are torn out. The people do not understand that driveways cannot be included in the Improvement Act the way it is drawn at this time." Considerable discussion followed.

Whatever tonnage is added for each of the driveways would.be a total tonnage of black-top added to the unit price. contract...Tbe,unit.price would be established by competitive bidding and be on the report returned by the City Engineer.
