y' <br />(9LJ �y,AN <br />te' <br />May 19, 1994 <br />• <br />Cindy L. Severson <br />Director ofParhs & Recreation <br />City ofArden Hills <br />s 1450 West Highway 96 <br />Arden Hills, MN 55112-5794 <br />Dear Cindy, <br />Thank you for meeting with me at Floral park on Friday, May 13, 1994 to discuss my <br />concerns regards parking during baseball games. I atn writing this letter to formally state <br />my concerns to the city council. 1 will propose a two-tiered solution; 1 will west <br />parking restrictions for this summer, as well as serest ways to decrease traffic and <br />disruption to the neighborhood in future seasons. <br />The problem has its basis in the fiict that Floral Park is intended to be strictly a <br />neighborhood park There is no parking lot, nor is there any alternative to parking on the <br />adjacent residential streets, Royal Lane and West Floral Drive. My fly has resided at <br />1467 Royal Lane, next to Floral Park, for over ten years so f am acutely aware of how the <br />parking problem has escalated steadily to its present level. It has become a clear and <br />present danger as well as great nuisance. . No other park in Arden Hills causes this level <br />�' p <br />of neighbor hood impact. For example, although Cummings Park has no parking lot, parking <br />is banned on Wyncrest Court -- users must park in the Control Data lot. Royal Hills Park <br />also has no parking lot but does have designated parking on Old Snellin& in an area <br />separated from homes. Unfortunately, there are no similar alternatives for Floral Park. <br />Therefore, f would like to propose a two- tiered solution; mediate changes in parking <br />restrictions to alleviate the current dangerous situation ag well as alternative scheduling <br />procedures (effective beginning in 1995) to alleviate the disruption to the area residents. <br />A description ofthe problem will clarit the proposed solutions. As stated, there are Iwo <br />concerns: the safety factor and the nuisance factor. The safety factor needs to be addressed <br />immediately, as the situation is dangerous for walkers, those entering and leaving the part <br />(especially children), bicyclists, as well as those driving cars. Royal Lane has two curves <br />which severely limit visibility in both directions. The street was not designed for four car <br />widths; in area where cars are parked on both sides ofthe street it is difficult for cars to <br />pass in opposite directions and hazardous as they approach the curve. It is an accident <br />waiting to happen! It is also extremely serous for anyone Ong or bikin& <br />
