<br />Discussion of Park Proiects Used for Comm~nitv Service
<br />
<br />The Commission discussed recent community service projects and agreed that
<br />while the city encourages and appreciates these projects, there needs to be
<br />contact with the proper authority, planning, and coordinating construction and
<br />the long term maintenance. After a year or two, some of these projects become
<br />unsightly or fall into a state of disrepair. .
<br />
<br />Chair Anderson and staff will set down some guidelines and bring them back to
<br />the Commission fqr a review at a future meeting.
<br />
<br />8. Discussion of Issues Reaardina Railroad Trail Crossina - County Road 1
<br />
<br />.
<br />
<br />Chair Anderson led the discussion on the upgrade of County Road 1 indicating
<br />that the proposed plan calls for a 72 foot wide roadway which will include four
<br />traffic lanes and 12 foot paved shoulders. The safety of a major trail crossing a
<br />major roadway and the expense of a foot bridge was discus~ed~ -
<br />
<br />COMMISSIONER TUTTLE MOVED TO RECOMMEND THAT THE ROAD IMPROVEMENT
<br />PLANS INCLUDE AN UNDERGROUND PATHWAY FOR A SAFE PEDESTRIAN CROSSING
