Trail Priority Discussion <br />Ms. Olson indicated that she has included a future trail listing map and has revised the <br />map and listing with the changes that were discussed at the January meeting. She <br />indicated she did check with Public Works Director Maurer about restriping north <br />Snelling Avenue (96 to Briarknoll) instead of having a trail. Mr. Maurer indicated it is <br />not recommended since the segment is not wide enough. Discussion ensued and it was <br />the consensus of the committee to take off “restriping” and to move this segment to low <br />priority and also to move segments N, C, and C1 to high priority. Committee Member <br />Kramlinger indicated the segments with safety concerns are the ones that should be high <br />priority and felt those should also be ranked in order (i.e., I as #1and then E as #2, etc.). <br />After further discussion the committee decided to only rank the two highest priorities. <br />
