These facilities were removed prior to the installation of the subdivision improvements. Funds have been provided for the necessary advertising and PG&E, Pacific Bell, King Videocable Co., and City utilities have been notified of the proposed abandonment and their approval has been secured. There being no persons in the audience wishing to speak on the matter the public portion of the hearing was closed.
