Please print a copy for him. Thanks. <br /> <br />Bert Casper bertcasper@qwest.net <br />651-429-7662 <br />6979 Eagle Trail Centerville, MN 55038 <br /> <br />From: "Bert Casper" <bertcasper@qwest.net> <br />To: mayacat@qwest.net <br />Subject: Eagle Pass issues <br />Date: Man 20, 2001, 11:04 AM <br /> <br />Thanks, for whatever influence you and the city had in getting things done <br />here in Eagle Pass. Sidewalks are getting fixed, the tennis court is <br />getting installed, and many other things are being done too. I think Gorem <br />has responded to things we've complained to Swift about for months. <br /> <br />Before Jim March left, I had talked with him about a few issues. I'd like <br />to pass them on to you, although they are city citizen safety issues rather <br />than Eagle Pass issues. <br />1. If the city would install a short bike/hiking path between the curve on <br />Ojibway and the eastern dead-end of Heritage St., then people could get from <br />the areas east of Centerville Road to the new Wheels Park and the <br />bike/hiking trails around Centerville lake and the Rice Creek Wildlife area <br />without trying to avoid the traffic while riding on Centerville Road or Main <br />Street. As you must know, the traffic is getting worse and worse, and I fear <br />that we'll have an accident, especially now that the Wheels Park attracts <br />kids on bikes and in-line skates. The area next to 1759 Ojibway and the <br />dead-end of Heritage can easily accommodate such a trail. <br />2. With the population increase in the area, the speed limits on Main Street <br />(Hwy. 14) between 20th St. and the Eastern border of Centerville should be <br />lowered to 30 mph. One of my neighbors was almost killed this morning by a <br />driver swerving to avoid another car on Main Street just by City Hall. One <br />can legally drive too fast in this area. I'm sure the county would not <br />object if the city put up 30 mph signs there. It is a residential street! <br />3. The lighting on Dupre is dangerous, and someone will be injured there if <br />added street lights are not installed. <br /> <br />Bert Casper bertcasper@qwest.net <br />651-429-7662 <br />6979 Eagle Trail Centerville, MN 55038 <br />
