ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – APRIL 26, 2021 6 <br /> <br />Bobby Goldman, 1290 County Road F W #309, noted he does not live in the immediate area, but <br />he walks and bikes across Arden Hills quite often. He stated this was an area of concern for him. <br />He recommended a comprehensive park and trail infrastructure plan be considered. He reported <br />this trail segment has been in planning stages for decades. He understood the trail would come at a <br />higher cost, but believed it was in the City’s best interest to complete the trail. <br /> <br />Amy Hoffman, 3500 Glen Arden Road, stated she supported Option 1. She encouraged the <br />Council to create a safe pedestrian safe for the pedestrians that live in this area. She indicated this <br />roadway needs a curb separated trail and suggested the Council have a solution mindset to get this <br />project done. <br /> <br />Stephen Nelson, 3475 Siems Court, asked if this was the correct time to talk about the <br />roundabout. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant reported now would be the correct time. <br /> <br />Mr. Nelson explained a trail was necessary along this roadway but recommended the City work <br />within the current footprint of the roadway. He commented he saw no advantages to pursuing a <br />roundabout and noted it would be difficult for pedestrians to cross to cross the roundabout. He <br />indicated the roundabout was quite costly and he recommended the four-way stop remain in place. <br />He believed the real problem was the street lights at McDonald’s which created backups. He <br />encouraged the City to save the money and not pursue the roundabout. <br /> <br />Todd Mueller, 1429 Lametti Lane, asked if the City would reconsider how the turn lane along <br />Highway 51 at Old Snelling Avenue was laid out within this project. <br /> <br />Interim Public Works Director Swearingen reported this particular turn lane was within <br />MNDOT right of way and was not included in these improvements. <br /> <br />Mr. Mueller encouraged the City to speak to the State about the layout of this turn lane. <br /> <br />Interim Public Works Director Swearingen explained MNDOT was consider improvements for <br />the Highway 51 corridor and noted he could bring this concern to their attention. <br /> <br />Mr. Mueller commented the proposed trail would benefit so many people in the neighborhood. <br />He questioned if there would there ever be a connection along Highway 51 to provide a loop <br />around the lake. <br /> <br />Interim Public Works Director Swearingen commented the PTRC has contacted Roseville and <br />MNDOT regarding this trail connection. He noted preliminary discussions were being held. <br /> <br />Christy Jacob, 4192 Arden Place W, stated she supported Option 1 or any solution focused <br />option that would include a trail. She explained she had children that liked to ride their bikes and <br />she would like to see a trail for safety purposes. <br /> <br />Jill King, 1483 Bussard Court, reported she moved to Arden Hills in 2010. She discussed how <br />many young people have moved into her neighborhood over the years and believed that the
