3.0 REVIEW AND COMMENT
3.1 Solina Road
Solina Road, north of the 6th Concession, was scheduled for
reconstruction in the 1994 Regional Cooperative Tender. For
proper road reiconatruction, Solina Road was pulverized and
gravelled along with a layer of hot mix. This raised the road
four (4) o six (6) inches above the existing level of road.
3.2 Policy for Driveways
It has been the Municipality's policy to raise existing
driveways to the new level of the road using the same material
as the existing driveway; for example, a gravel driveway will
have gravel added and a paved driveway will have hot mix
added. The end result will usually be a low sloped driveway
from the newly,conatructed road to the chosen starting point
of the existing driveway.
3.3 Mrs. Viola M. ~shton's Driveway
Through the 1994 Regional Cooperative Tender, Mrs. Ashton's
driveway was raised with hot mix asphalt to the level of the
newly reconstructed road to the satisfaction of the Region of
Durham.

4.0 CONCLIISION
4.1 Mrs. Ashton was not satisfied with the resultant slope of the
driveway. Recognizing that staff at the Region of Durham had
already found ,this job to be acceptable, an agreement was
reached whereby the Municipality would cover the cost of
resealing the entire driveway. During the summer a layer of
driveway sealant was applied. All parties are in agreement
and no further, action is required.
Respectfully submitted,

Dear Members of Council
MUNICIPALITY OF CLARINGTOK
MAYOR'S OFFICE
AGENDA
During the fall of 1994, Solina Road north of the 6th Concession
was rebuilt. This made a difference'in the entrances to my home.
Having had my driveway paved before, it=,was even with`the road,
now it is a definite raise. The work that was done at the end"
of the entrances was very poor. The pavement is very rippled
and unsmooth and where it joins the present driveway it has
not been blended in properly.
I would appreciate this matter being looked into.
Yours truly
~m~
Viola M. Ashton
