City Eyes Purchase of Frontage to Ease 66th and Shea Flooding
City engineers plan to widen and lower 66th Street to drain the floodprone intersection near Shea Boulevard. They need about 15 000 square feet from Carl Markoff on the southwest corner to complete the west side of the road and drain water toward natural courses. Markoff, who owns the land, says he will sell at a fair appraisal but the city has no funds authorized for the purchase yet and the decision rests with the city council.
