Where is the money in the budget for streetscape plans, LaMotte Park electrical, <br />Wheels Park, public works water traps etc.? <br />. Infrastructure plans were discussed for roads, sewers, and especially pond <br />maintenance and that plans exist. <br />. Park and recreation from park improvements; to kids bicycle and pedestrian <br />access for safety were discussed. Looping trails were talked about. <br />. Overlaying the St. Paul water pipe was offered as a good idea to get bikes and <br />pedestrians off Centerville Road <br />. Access to the lakefront was mentioned and the possibility of trading land with the <br />church was also talked about <br />. Downtown water, sewer, revitalization, and architecture themes were mentioned <br />including a major grant application several years ago for mixed-use business on <br />first floor with apartments and living spaces above much like an early 1900's <br />theme <br />. Comprehensive plan update process was mentioned <br />. Communication options were touched on and we heard negative comments on <br />our website <br />. Citizens want the budget printed and available to them as decisions are <br />formulated and they want the budget that is adopted followed. <br />. Folks talked about quality of life issues - keep it a small town <br />. Youth and crime prevention were talked about and need for programs such as <br />YMCA/Lino Lakes Park etc. <br />. Couldn't hear the tornado siren was talked about <br />. Comments were received that the plan emphasisllook ahead was good <br />. The draft document does not preclude any existing youth programs that exist <br />such as Little League or soccer, but tries to enhance recreation programs. <br />. The park dedication fee was discussed for the LaMotte Park improvements. <br />. Open space planning was mentioned as an issue <br />. Architectural and environmental design was mentioned as a possible item to <br />incorporate in ordinances <br /> <br />In addition, I visited Chauncey Barrett Gardens and learned: <br /> <br />. They have concerns with the next phase of development in Eagle Pass <br />. Pedestrian access to church, into Eagle Pass, and along Centerville Road to get <br />downtown or to church is important <br />. They seem to have constant muddy water in the facility and would like that <br />addressed <br />. They are interested in pond maintenance issues <br />. They do not want assisted living or multistory buildings in the next phase of <br />Chauncey Barrett <br /> <br />R <br />
