Safety and security factors. Possible break-ins was a concern. <br /> 2. Concern for safety of people using roads - Two bad areas noted <br /> were curve on Colleen and curve on Norma Avenue. <br /> 3. How would pathway be developed? <br /> 4, Who would maintain pathway? <br /> 5. Uncertainty of pathway future was the biggest factor; purchase or <br /> not purchase; degree of development. <br /> Buckley recommended that the Village not sell pedestrian pathway back to <br /> residents. Buckley noted that Arden Hills residents highly value their <br /> pathways; recommended that we should consider development of the pathways, <br /> not selling them. Buckley said that some definite decision should be made <br /> to eliminate the residents ' uncertainty. <br /> The residents left the meeting. <br /> After considerable discussion, McClung moved, seconded by Green, that: <br /> No consideration be given to selling property, and that Buckley <br /> work with the residents, when planning development of the pathway; <br /> pathway development to be completed this summer. <br /> Motion carried. <br />
