Life and Hud help \�?Tfind9�?~lost House remember that a a eyesore House at 3732 Odin ave., we ran in this spot last edition Well help is. On the Way. After we called Bill Moses of the local office of housing and Urban development Hud to ask him about the House he traced the four year a sad Story of the abandoned Home. Hud is listed As owner of the House at the Hamilton county auditors office yet the Hud computer had no record of the House when we first contacted the Hud office last week. Some checking by Moses revealed that the House had originally been insured with an cha mortgage loan. There begins huds involvement with the House. The mortgage was held by Mellon National mortgage corp., Cleveland. When the owner defaulted on the loan Mellon went into a foreclosure action four years ago but apparently filed in huds name a a prematurely and without notifying the local Hud office. When Moses checked into the situation for us last week he discovered that Mellon had eases tally a a lost the House in its administrative process. But that has changed now. Mellon will pick up the administrative process that should put the Home into the hands of Hud within about two weeks. Moses said. Within five Days after Hud takes Over the House its representative will Check out the House and make sure it is secured Ander aged for regular grass cuttings he explained. A v then Hud will do one of four things Quot demolish it and sell the vacant lot Quot sell it essentially As it is Quot fully repair it and resell it Quot sell it the City of Cincinnati for its homesteading program. A a by Maureen Hehman As much As Montgomery residents love their City they can hardly escape the obvious Montgomery is essentially a series of Halfacre lots surrounded by highways and superhighway. You Quot can hear the Roar from Cross county Highway 1-71, 1-275, or Montgomery rd., from almost any Point in the City. The growth of Montgomery As a residential Mecca and the growth of suburbs surrounding Montgomery such As Blue Ash Sycamore and Symmes townships has brought with it. A Gigantic traffic Jam. At last wednesday s City Council meeting Montgomery City Council and administration took the first Steps to get their toes out of the Jam. Council hired the firm of Vogt Sage and Pflum recommended by mayor Fred Young to create a comprehensive study and plan of action to solve present and anticipated traffic problems in the City. Its costing the City $9,-900 to buy the traffic study. Councilman Howard Smith said it will Cost Between $1 and $2 million in state and local funds to solve the City a traffic problems particularly along Montgomery re. Councilman Ray Waltham voted against hiring the firm saying he prefers a less expensive less Quot comprehensive study. W a it her pointed out that Vogt Sage and Pflum has already made detailed traffic studies of the downtown area. A Jack Pflum spokesman for the firm said the study would a bring the pieces together a incorporate previous work with new studies into a comprehensive look at the traffic situation in the City. Administrative assistant Phil Herrick told Council the Price the company is charging reflects what he believes is a savings because the firm has done previous traffic studies and is familiar with Montgomery. Pflum said the three stage study to be completed in 12 weeks would study existing and predictable traffic flow in the City taking into account such things As traffic coming from Blue Ash from Cross county Highway and from residential growth in outlying areas. Some of the most sensitive areas such As Montgomery re. Corridor Cooper Remington Pfeiffer and Zig Zag roads will receive special focus he said. This phase of the study will take about 30 Days and will culminate in a Public meeting with Council and cite residents. The second part of the study will be an inventory of Road conditions including such things As pavement condition Width curbing gutters and sidewalks. It will also identify critical intersections such As Weller at Montgomery Pfeiffer at Montgomery Zig Zag at Mitchell farm etc., and made detailed studies of pedestrian and vehicular traffic at these critical intersections. This phase will also take about 30 Days and be followed by a Public meeting. The third phase of the study will be a recommendation for improvements listed in three sets of priorities. The first priority will be Given to projects which need to be done immediately and which can be done without much expense of time or Money Sueh is changing traffic signals signal timing establishing no left turn and no parking areas painting turn lanes. The second priority list will consist of projects which also need doing immediately but because of anticipated delay in getting authorization or work accomplished May take from one to three years a the third list will include suggested Long Range improvements for a 10-year Span such As projects which require widening of roads new traffic lights making Montgomery re. Four lanes at some Points. This phase will also Deal with the problem of proliferating curb cuts on Montgomery rd., with the aim of establishing a policy and guidelines. After these phases Are completed the firm will then make recommendations about seeking funds to pay for costly Street and traffic improvements.
