<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />Arden Hills Council <br /> <br />6 <br /> <br />July 12, 1993 <br /> <br />Andersen or Hanson. I question whether extension of <br />Shoreline Lane as discussed this evening is in the best <br />interest of the City since the neighborhood objects to it. <br />The Council is mistaken if it expects affected neighbors to <br />pay for any potential improvements such as those discussed <br />this evening because there is no benefit upon which to base <br />such assessment. My clients concur with citizen comments <br />heard this evening that the City should not amend the <br />Official Map of the City's Transportation Plan or extend <br />sewer as discussed, but rather should allow Warren Hanson to <br />connect to the existing sanitary sewer as he has proposed. <br /> <br />Charles Campbell, 3200 Lake Lane: I see no reason why the <br />City would consider this concept when no one needs or wants <br />it. I wish Warren Hanson well, and believe he has a right <br />to develop his property as he desires. If the City is <br />interested in spending money, Lake Lane is in very poor <br />condition and could use some attention. I question whether <br />this matter is simply another example of an idea being <br />"railroaded" though despite citizen opposition. <br /> <br />Norma Bachman, 3187 North Lexinqton: During earlier <br />discussions regarding this matter, there were a number of <br />alignment concept options considered for the study area, <br />many of which did not extend Shoreline Lane though in a <br />straight line. Several of those options (apparently no <br />longer being considered by the City) would be much preferred <br />over the concept presented this evening. My experience has <br />been that the City has done some good planning over the <br />years I have been a resident of Arden Hills, and I believe <br />we could all agree to some compromise involving a concept <br />plan which allowed Shoreline Lane to remain disconnected. <br /> <br />At Ms. Bachman's request, Bergly showed some of the options <br />for conceptual subdivision of the study area considered in <br />the past, but added that the Planning Commission has <br />recommended the straight line connection of Shoreline Lane <br />over any other concept plans previously considered. <br /> <br />Gordon Dean, 3233 Shoreline Lane: Opening up Shoreline Lane <br />would worsen the already problematic accesses at both ends <br />of Shoreline Lane, therefore, I object to the proposal. <br /> <br />Several citizens questioned why the individual notices they <br />received indicated a potential assessment of $8,000. <br /> <br />Further citizen comments were invited; hearing no response, <br />the public hearing was closed at 8:39 p.m. <br />
