It is <br />easier for us to e-mail our concerns to all of you at once, and would <br />appreciate a follow-up phone call if you need clarification from us. We will <br />be out of town next week and unable to attend the meeting as invited. Our <br />comments, concerns, and questions are listed below, as we prepare this <br />letter, the list gets longer, and so we'll begin here. <br /> <br />In our immediate area (Morton street, proposed trail) <br /> <br />* Trail and park are in a flood plain and would suffer yearly damage <br />requiring cleanup and <br />reconstruction. <br />* River board walk- Have you seen the riverbank? The sides in this area are <br />very steep, how can. <br />a boardwalk be built within the DNR regulations? <br />* How can private landowners loose that much property? Some of these homes <br />will have the <br />boardwalk at their back steps. Is there a plan for proper compensation <br />for their loss? <br />* What will this loss of view and privacy do to my property value? <br /> <br />Future of Elk River: The big picture that affects all residents. <br /> <br />* Did the Task Force consider the State's plan for Highway 10? <br />* Traffic is already a problem on Jackson and Main Street, how is taking TWO <br /> <br />7/31/2007 <br />
