Show Letter To Editor Objects sets To o Davis Blvd This letter is prompted because because because be be- cause a significant number of Davis County residents have indicated to me that city and county officials are quietly attempting to again open South Davis Blvd as a north- north south freeway access arterial road PREVIOUSLY the citizens of Davis County spoke out against this costly project but apparently politicians feel the citizens cannot know what is good for the community This plan for South Davis Blvd is 15 years old and from the time of project evaluation March 1953 this road was impractical because 1 WAY RIGHT-OF-WAY completion completion comple comple- tion and maintenance costs which were previously too high would be much higher today 2 The safety of thousands of children would be compromised compromised compromised com com- promised by making an access road so near schools churches and through residential areas 3 THIS throughway would reduce residential property valuation in m areas adjacent to South Davis Blvd 4 4 The total cost estimate of this project has yet to be presented MAY I again suggest that those who are trying so hard to get this costly project through move their sites up a little higher and spend some sometime sometime sometime time on the Skyline Drive Project which is planned to enter Salt Lake City near Ensign Peak Theo Thea L L.
