<br />ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - JUNE 14, 1999 <br /> <br />DRAFT <br /> <br />9 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Mayor Probst confirmed that the trail would extend to the Vaughn property. Mr. Fritsinger <br />stated that this was correct. <br /> <br />MOTION: <br /> <br />Councilmember Larson moved and Councilmember Aplikowski seconded a <br />motion to authorize staff to acquire all necessary easements and permits and <br />prepare the Change Order to the West Round Lake Road, Phase I contract for the <br />West Round Lake trail extension work. <br /> <br />Considering the damage to the existing trail in the area, Councilmember Rem asked if any <br />thought had been given to cleaning up that portion of the trail. Mr. Fritsinger stated that there <br />has been ongoing discussions with Welsh and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service regarding how <br />to do something different along the trails to prevent wash outs. The problem with the current <br />trail easement is that there is no excess property extending into the U.S. Fish and Wildlife <br />property. Therefore, the City cannot go in and do any grading or repairs to the property closest <br />to the lake, which is undermining the trail. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service indicated last <br />week that they were open to working with the City in order to make some grade changes and <br />prevent the wash-out situation. <br /> <br />Mr. Moore stated that Welsh had performed some grading and planted some grass to slow down <br />the water before it hits the trail. He indicated that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is aware of <br />the problem and is agreeable to the trail extension. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Councilmember Rem asked if there was a chance that the new trail segment would survive intact. <br />Mr. Fritsinger stated that one difference with this trail segment construction was that the City had <br />not been involved in the construction of the trail segment installed in 1998. The Welsh Company <br />had coordinated the entire construction of the trail and the City had simply agreed to the general <br />layout and design of it. In this case, the City would actually be constructing the trail and <br />monitoring the construction to ensure there are no trouble areas. <br /> <br />Mr. Fritsinger stated that the reason the trail is not a straight line around the lake was to take <br />better advantage ofthe topography. The maintenance crew has indicated that with some of the <br />new trails being constructed, while the trails are installed in nice scenic areas, they are not <br />conducive to maintenance. <br /> <br />Councilmember Aplikowski asked whom this trail segment is intended to serve. Mr. Fritsinger <br />stated that the trail will connect with Gateway Boulevard and will also connect into New <br />Brighton. The next piece would involve obtaining property along the south end of the lake, <br />which would run the trail back to Highway 10. At this time the trail is primarily being used by <br />the employees of the Gateway Business Park. In the future when the trail is fully connected, <br />most residents of the community would use it. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Councilmember Rem stated that a number of residents south of Highway 694 have expressed an <br />interest in a trail connection from Old Highway 10 running along the south side of the lake to <br />New Brighton. These residents look forward to being able to get around the lake. <br />
