54 would be cumbersome , as some owners may refuse , or not make the repairs properly . This method could also be inequitable . 4 . Form an association whereby each property owner would place a pro- rated share of the total cost into a construction fund , with the City administering the contract . However , it is doubtful that there would be 100% owner participation . 5 . The Council accept the quit- claim deed , have the fence removed , and the strip landscaped in such a manner as to effectively screen the properties , both as to sight and noise , from the expressway . Repairs on the fence would be rather extensive since it would not be replacing the grape stakes but would involve post replacement and perhaps foundations for the posts . City Manager further detailed his report concerning resolving this matter with the various alternatives possible but also felt equitable funding would involve more expenses than cost of replacing fencing, in the one instance , improbability of all property owners volunteering for cost of reconstruction of fence , etc . , and why he felt it to be better to give them a chance for one year to attempt to resolve themselves and also leave time for City to include in budget for next year if not resolved and decision made thereafter for either reconstructing fence , or consideration be given for removal and landscaping be considered instead . Assistant City Manager reported on meeting he had attended with some fifteen property owners present out of a total of twenty - seven , signifi - cantly indicating number of absentee property owners . He also reported to Council they had been specifically advised as to the alternatives available to them . Councilman Henderson moved to accept the report and authorize implementa- tion of the recommendation of accepting the quit - claim deed and agree to maintain the fence if the property owners restore it to an acceptable state . If the property owners do not repair the fence by July , 1973 , it is recommended that the City consider then removing the fence and landscape the strip , seconded by Councilman Weymouth and carried .
