The Johnson County Citizen's Committee for the Handicapped would like to make a request for another extension to complete the Accessibility Guidebook for which we received CDBG Funds. We would like to have six months extension. The survey portion of the project is 85-90% complete The extreme winter weather and a broken arm in late January from which I am still recuper- ating, were the two primary reasons for the delay in my progress. During a recent board meeting of the Citizen's Committee, the 1985 Chairperson,Pat Simmons, volunteered her help and asked other board members to do the same. She designated Mona McElderry to evalulate the project and assist me in the project. We will ask help from other members at our next meeting March 25th. We would greatly appreciate a six month extension beyond our March 31, 1985 deadline. We feel a lot can be accomplished with "Spring" weather approaching and summer to finish the booklet. Expenses on the project so far are listed below. They have not changed since July 1, 1984 report. Thank you for your understanding.

The ordinance was adopted to keep rocks, etc. from being thrown through store windows. It now appears that the ordinance is too restrictive and should be enforced only in those areas where there is heavy pedestrian traffic. Rocks are a desirable surface material in the parking area adjacent to streets with heavy vehicular traffic because they are aesthetically pleasing and yet easy to maintain. The revised ordinance includes the area bordered by Church Street, Dodge Street, Bowery Street, and Madison Street. tp2/10 0 7a9
