The Commission recommended (4-3) that a 10-foot trail easement <br /> be required along the western side of the proposed plat. <br /> The plat was presented to the City Council on December 19, 2016. In their discussion, the Council <br /> indicated concern the Parks Master Plan did not include details including which side of the roadway the <br /> trail would be located. <br /> The master plan provides guidance for future growth including trail connections and expansion,however <br /> it does not provide specific details on the design of trails such as the curves, topographic changes, <br /> intersections, etc. The Council expressed a desire for master trail plans with further refined details. Staff <br /> plans to discuss trail connectivity and trail details at an upcoming work session with City Council. <br /> The intent of this discussion is to identify challenges with trail priorities,placement,and connectivity. <br /> Financial Impact <br /> None <br /> Attachments <br /> • Master Plan Figure 5.6 Trail Connectivity <br /> 1OUEREI 1 / <br /> NATURE <br />
