<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />City Council Minutes <br />March 14,2005 <br /> <br />Page 6 <br /> <br />Mr. Maurer stated that, yes, this is a less expensive way to build a pedestrian crossing rather <br />than a bridge. He stated that he would be back to Council in a few months. <br /> <br />Barb Barandt, 19118 Tyler Street, in the audience inquired as to why the City does not <br />expand current corridors like County Roads 12 and 13 rather than to have traffic go through <br />residential neighborhoods. She stated that 193rd Avenue would be diff1cult to develop. Her <br />property looks to be an easy part to go through and she stated that if the City cuts through <br />her property, that it would change their home, their heritage. She stated that the west side <br />and east side has never been disturbed. She stated that if the City wishes to go through, that <br />she would hope that they would work with them to preserve some of that heritage and <br />undisturbed quality on their property. <br /> <br />Planning Commissioner Peter Lemke asked about designating and/ or constructing frontage <br />roads to the trunk highways. Mr. Maurer stated that he is very hopeful that MnDot will <br />proceed with the study of the scope on 169 and how the City road system is going to <br />connect to make all these roads operate. He stated that it does no good to build <br />interchanges if we cannot get to them. <br /> <br />6. Other Business <br /> <br />There was no other business to discuss. <br /> <br />7.
