A second open meeting will be held oct. 16 at 8 . To discuss related drainage problems residents on Glendale Milford Road Are having from the Crest communities development. Irritated residents on Glendale Milford Road first appeared at the sept. 11 Council meeting to complain about flooded backyards. Then on oct. 1 two Home purchasers in Fox hollow Joe Posge and Dan Kaiser c91, told City Council they did not know their backyards would be part of a drainage detention Basin when they bought their $80.000 Homes. They described an ugly 20-foot ditch behind their Homes and said they were concerned about children playing there. Since the oct. Meeting several Council members including mayor Biedermann visited the develop ment to see the problems firsthand. The ditch a looks unacceptable to me a Biedermann said a and 1 think there is a safety problem. Personally i would like to see the ditch covered but who is responsible for paying for that is another issues City manager Victor Suhm had said earlier that the detention Basin was part of the subdivision plan submitted to the City for approval. But Home buyers should have been informed of its location he said. And whether it had been constructed As originally approved on the plan is still another. Question he added.

Councilman Robert Schuler introduced an ordinance to Deer Park City Council at its oct. 9 meeting that proposes amending another ordinance which is concerned with obedience to police officers.

As the ordinance reads now people who disregard a police officers instructions would have to be taken downtown and charged with violation of a state Law. They also have to appear in court downtown. The amended version will allow officers to cite offenders locally with Vio lation of a City ordinance. People would then be required to appear in mayors court. A since mayors court convenes at night it should be easier for people who work during the Day to appear in court and get the matter taken care of Quot said Schuler. Schuler also stated that fines levied in mayors court Are usually less than those Given out downtown. A Telephone Survey of various local police departments revealed that most communities had similar ordinances on the books.
