Salisbury 2341
petition. One, concerning parking on one side of the street only was of
much concern to residents who leave cars parked in front of their homes.
It was requested that the hours of no parking be limited to those from
7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and to allow parking in the evening and on Sundays.
It was also requested that radar checks be made more frequently on the
street to slow down speeders. A resident advised the hours between 6—10
p.m. were the best times to conduct these radar checks.
Council advised the group that the problems on the street would be
given fair and impartial study and corrective measures taken where neces-
sary. Councilman Martin stated he felt the Council was aware of what was
wanted and needed and thanked the group for coming up to voice their
opinions.
Glen Avenue Annexation Project—Resolution 120
The Board of Election Supervisors reported that results of a special
election held earlier in the day for the annexation of an area known as
the Glen Avenue Annex were available and that the project had been de-
feated at the polls by a vote of 122 For and 158 Against the annexation.
Mr. William P. Long announced that one vote did not register in the vot-
ing machine. Because of the defeat of the annexation proposal, no action
was taken on Resolution No. 120.
In answer to a query from Councilman Seidel, Mr. Long, who is Chair-
man of the Board of Election Supervisors, advised that voters were
registered properly and that of the total eligible, almost all had appeared.
There were six who wanted to vote but could not because they did not live
in the area.

Appearance—Oscar Carey re Decision on
Revenue—A & P Lot
Mr. Oscar Carey appeared before Council to ask for reconsideration of
a decision not to share income from meters established on property owned
by Larmar Corp. based on terms of a lease agreement entered into with
that company.
Mr. Carey explained he did not blame the City Solicitor or Director of
Finance for their interpretation of the Lease Agreement but gave his rea-
sons for requesting a more equitable settlement. He stated Larmar Corp.
was approached by the City through the C.C.D.C. for the development of
the parking lot in question. He also advised the improvements to the lot were
installed by the City but were not at the request or control of Larmar Corp.
Further, there was no attempt to designate priority of payment of taxes or
improvements in the Lease Agreement and that it had never been antici-
pated that expenses would exceed revenues.
