The committee identified several areas where an expanded pedestrian system would provide increased safety or complete a loop in the system. It was noted that the roadway to the County Park is currently narrow and dangerous for pedestrian travel. The committee agreed that both Main Street and Centerville Road are dangerous for pedestrians and are in need of 8 foot wide pedestrian trailways separate from the roadway. The county will include sidewalks in the upgrade of roadways but local funding is required to install the sidewalks or trailways. Long term maintenance is a local responsibility. The Committee discussed the development of parks and pedestrian systems in the areas yet undeveloped in the City. These recommendations will be indicated on the plan. Carol indicated that Maier Stewart will be producing a computer assisted design (CAD) for the proposed trails and will produce construction cost estimates. City staff will need to provide continual updating of the plan. Carol indicated that the city staff needs to make copies of the plat maps for all of the City owned parcels of park land and trailways, provide the Acorn Creek Preliminary Plat and pull all ordinances, sections of the Comprehensive Plan and other policy 3
