Hood Freeway Enters 1-205 Controversy Route The controversial 1-205 free way route linking Clackamas County with the travel way has received considerable discus sion of late towards a hookup with the ML Hood Freeway. The suggested travel route in this connection would be that the freeway start at the Mar- quam Bridge In downtown Portland and run through the southeast part of the city along a line laid out for the proposed Mt. Hood Freeway until it reaches 96th Avenue. Relative to thia proposal an application would be made for an addition of 13 miles to bring a connec tion with 1-205 in the vicinity of 96th and Powell Ave., I swlng east of Oregon City and thence to Aurora and the Bal- dock Freeway. Following a recent commit- tee meeting, of which thia pro posal errupted. it was decided to ask Rex Whitton of the Bureau of Public Roads to meet with the coordinating committee studying this problem. Numer ous routes have t>«en discussed for 1-205 with varioua fa c tic ns splitting hairs over the path way it should follow. Earlier the Clackamas Coun ty officials had conaldered var ious routes through the county and had issued an ultimatum saying It was "t Linn route or nothing.

Pointing out these two thoughts Ritz said that Sandy Is at a new crossroads with the four-lane highway right through town about to be built. He emphasized that this is a very important thing to Sandy. Regressing to th« beginning our town he listed three events that had taken plac«. They are: (1) the people that first settled here ► about 1853, arriving a- long t i Barlow Trail; (2) th« first automobile that went chug ging into Sandy probably 50 to 60 years ago; and (3) a date probably 30 years ago when the highway route at that time was moved from the old Main Street over to the present Loop High way. With it he said the city moved over to the new highway route. Rita stated that the building of the new highway on Main Street Is reverting the travel route back to where tt had ori ginally been. Commenting on the growth changes and pattern erupting he vi ron meat around you. Th« col- clone youth In th« area and this alone caa be a significant c hang« the community. Sandy la still a beautiful area, Ritz remarked, and you still have time to do someth,ng about saving IL..you have time but not much time (about 10 years ho a aid). Portland will be hero at your doorstep and maybe beyond your city by then he continued. Adding, Rita said, you must de cide if you want to maintain you« identity or be absorbed by Port land and it could happen faster than this (speaking of 10 yearsX From here the meeting was opened up to a question and ans wer period with numerous ques - tions presented to Rita by mem bers present. He suggested a planned growth but first there must be a decision made as to the type of community you de sire Sandy to be. After that decision is made then you can develop a growth plan and con serve the beauty of your are*. The time to act he indicated was at present he answered to a direct question of this nature.
