what they feel is a deplorable<br />
condition of the<br />
parkway in their road. A<br />
petition signed by 26<br />
Fairford residents asked<br />
the council "To take immediate<br />
action to clean,<br />
renovate, trim trees and<br />
cut the grass on the<br />
Fairford road islands."<br />
The petition also stated<br />
many non-residents of<br />
Fairford bring their dogs<br />
to walk the parkway to<br />
use it as a dog-walk, causing<br />
a sanitation problem.<br />

on its moratorium on lot<br />

• CONTRACT TALKS<br />
GO INTO HIGH GEAR:<br />
Teachers and administrators<br />
are plunging into a<br />
heavy schedule of negotiating<br />
this month in an effort<br />
to get a contract settlement<br />
before<br />
September. After the traditional<br />
July hiatus, negotiators<br />
face almost daily<br />
bargaining if they expect<br />
to accomplish their goal.<br />
Both sides say there<br />
won't be a strike.<br />
• DAYCARE QUES<br />
TION SENT TO COUN<br />
CIL FOR INTERPRETA<br />
TION: In an orgy of parliamentary<br />
procedure, the<br />
<strong>Grosse</strong> <strong>Pointe</strong> Woods<br />
Planning Commission<br />
passed the home daycare<br />
issue to the council.<br />
Backers of an ordinance<br />
amendment to allow residents<br />
to care for a limited<br />
number of children in<br />
their homes were told to<br />
petition council for a<br />
change which would be<br />
prepared by the planning<br />
commission.<br />
The issue arose when<br />
the city received complaints<br />
from neighbors of<br />
a Shoreham resident that<br />
she was operating a daycare<br />
center in her house.<br />
Neighbors complained<br />
traffic from parents dropping<br />
off their children disturbs<br />
them.<br />
