Hecker, Michael <br /> From: Reker, Douglas J (DHS) <douglas j.reker @state.mn.us> <br /> Sent: Wednesday,January 14,2015 11:49 AM <br /> To: Hecker, Michael <br /> Subject: RE: Master Plan <br /> Michael,thank you for staying in touch. I am still the President and it was our understanding the trail connection was <br /> not going to be a priority. The RRL Board is content with that. Bonnie has never brought up this again after the <br /> meetings you guys had and the article in the paper was discussed and of course it was posted on your site. Bonnie is <br /> passionate but the pulse of our neighborhood is that the majority out here do not want trails connected. This winter we <br /> opened up the skating and hockey rink to our development for use. This alone caused a Board member to become <br /> upset citing liability issues. <br /> One of her concerns is about needing to get into a car and travel to town for parks,etc. Not to sound snotty but anyone <br /> who lives out here should have realized that was the case before moving out here. One thing that I do agree with <br /> however is the number of cars and trucks who park by the trails both morning and evening. This frankly is a dangerous <br /> situation waiting to happen. It is too bad that there couldn't be some off road parking leveled so cars and trucks could <br /> park away from the shoulder and not encroach on the road way. Of course the hills compound the problem. I cannot be <br /> present tonight but appreciate the heads up. Please feel free to keep me informed and again thank you. <br />
