SUPJDCT: STAIRG�I�� YS - College Rridge to Ninth Street anc'. 5�►ith Street.
I can see no reason to keep these stairs. Traffic, parking, and pedestrian
origins and destinations have chan_qec� ccm�letely in this area sa that the
stairs are no lonaer necessary. '!'hey may he removed as far as we are
concerned.
The remains of a stairway about 40 feet east of the bridge was desicmec� to
_qo up from College, but the lay of the land naw goes do�an - so might as
well rerrove it also.
