Controversy Delays Dedication Of Half Street Near New School
Residents of Caprock west of College Avenue question why only half of 58th Street from College to Avenue W is graded for the new R. F. Bayless elementary school at 58th St and Ave U. They fear the narrow road, shared with pedestrians and cyclists, is unsafe. The delay hinges on a radio tower, a 300 foot antenna erected by sand and gravel operator M. Chancey, which local officials allege violated ordinances. Owner Doyle Oswalt blames the tower for devaluing his property and blocks street dedication until the tower is removed.
