. Minutes of the Arden Hills Regular Council Meeting, 10-15-91 Page 5 . CASE #91-19 (Cent' d) Bergly explained Council should consider two items for action this evening: ~ion #1 as the option to be discm::s:oo at the public hearing and if the hearing will be held before the Planning Commission = Council. He advised the "Official Map" statute states the Council shall hold the public hearing; the city Attorney advised it is appropriate for the Council to pass the responsibility for the hearing to Planning Cammission, Counci1Inember Hicks recalled the previous discussion of this matter during consideration of the Hanson Plat and explained several residents were opposed to the straight line extension of the street, citing increased traffic as a major concern. Hicks noted residents CCIllplained that it is difficult to a=ess Lexington Avenue fran County Road D and at that time it was suggested the straight line extension of the street may be beneficial to residents f= use as an alternative access to Iexington Avenue. He preferred residents review the alternatives in the document, rather than Council make a detennination at this time that the straight line extension be adopted, Counci1Inember Mahowald advised ~ion #1 is a recommendation only, to identify the future street extension, and does not prohibit future consideration of other options when and if development occurs to the south of Shoreline Lane. Planner Bergly suggested an alternative to the public hearing would be an informal meeting with residents to discuss the options, He indicated there is no expediency to resolve this matter. . Ceuncil con=ed an informal discussion would be appropriate, as there does not appear to be an :iInmediate need to resolve this matter.
