<br />. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />- <br /> <br />The task force recommends that cut stone pieces of granite, which is a waste product of <br />the manufacturing process, be used for the retaining walls. The task force recommends <br />that the rainbow colored granite be used for the retaining wall color. The task force also <br />recommends at-grade lighting be provided behind the retaining walls to provide <br />directional lighting at the sign face. <br /> <br />The task force recommends that the City pursue the mature evergreen landscaping on the <br />Twin Cities Army Ammunition Plant (TCAAP) to include behind the signs. The task <br />force also recommends the inclusion of annual planting beds with retaining walls to help <br />visually define the entry signs. Lastly, the task force recommends pursuing the assistance <br />of Ramsey County for surplus dirt for berming at the Lexington Avenue sign, given <br />Ramsey County's current road construction in the area. <br /> <br />B. Median Landscaping, The task force recommends the inclusion ofturfwith underground <br />irrigation as the preferred ground cover for the median, The task force also recommends <br />that the addition of ornamental trees at the ends of these tree groups (provided by Ramsey <br />County) with low level shrubs beneath the ornamental trees, <br /> <br />C. City Hall access, The task force would recommend that if the redevelopment of the City <br />Hall site does not require the use ofthe median cut (in front of Public Works driveway), <br />then the median cut be relocated to Keithson Drive, which is at the top of the hill and has <br />the pOtential for expansion into the Reiling property. <br /> <br />D, <br /> <br />Noise wall. The task force does not recommend the provision of a noise wall, but would <br />recommend the provision of additionallandscaping/berming by Ramsey County in those <br />residential areas (ie., Arden Manor Mobile Home Park) in which residents are directly <br />adjacent to the roadway and do not have the proper building setback. <br /> <br />E. Lighting, Given, that redevelopment of the TCAAP is not imminent and that directional <br />underground boring (for the wiring) is becoming more cost effective so that underground <br />electrical conduit does not need to be installed at this time for these potential future street <br />lights, The task force recommends that the no additional lighting above that which is <br />being proposed by Ramsey County be provided along the corridor. However, the task <br />force would recommend that if development of the TCAAP is imminent, then this item be <br />reviewed at that time, <br /> <br />F. Regional Trail. The task force does not recommend the provision of the regional trail as <br />proposed by Ramsey County. The task force recommends that the regional trail stay on <br />the south side of Highway 96 until North Snelling Avenue, The trail then should proceed <br />south on the west side of North Snelling Avenue and cross over Highway 10, via a <br />bridge, in the vicinity of Royal Hills Park, then proceed west hugging Round Lake where <br />possible and proceed over Interstate 35W utilizing the existing railroad bridge to gain <br />access to the Long Lake Regional Park. <br />
