- Define the rights-of-ways, keep utility and sewer access clear, and provide better access for emergency vehicles.
- Accomplish a FAN recommended action measure from the 1996 neighborhood plan.
- Help define property lines and allow residents to more easily maintain the award winning neighborhood character.
- Garbage and Recycling bins can be positioned and left along on the alley right-of-way reducing the need to wheel the carts to the curb each week.
