Mayor Wilharber questioned whether residents had been informed of this charge. <br /> Mr. Palzer <br /> 9 g r e <br /> stated he did not believe information had been provided to residents concerning this issue other <br /> than the fee placement on individual utility bills. <br /> Mayor Wilharber requested that staff place an article in the next LeJournal in regards to this item. <br /> Mr. March stated that Mr. Wayne LeBlanc, Parks and Recreation Committee member, had <br /> Yn � , <br /> brought to his attention the fact that the trail in Hunter's Crossing would be connecting to the <br /> Anoka County Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Regional Park and perhaps the City's trail should be <br /> widened to ten (10) feet to coincide with same. Mr. March stated he visually inspected same and <br /> believes the trail could be paved out to nine and one half (9 `V2) feet without any significant costs <br /> incurred other than the cost of the extra bituminous. Mr. March clarified that Mr. LeBlanc was not <br /> speaking on behalf of the Parks and Recreation Committee. <br /> Mayor Wilharber questioned whether the City or the developer would incur the additional <br /> expenditures relating to widening the trail. Mr. Peterson, City Engineer, indicated the additional <br /> burden would be the developer's responsibility. Mr. Peterson estimated the additional cost to be <br /> $1,400. <br /> Mayor Wilharber questioned the Parks and Recreation Committee's decision on this matter. <br /> Council Member Sweeney stated it was his understanding that the Committee wanted to set a <br /> minimum width standard for parks in the new developments; however, the Committee was <br /> unaware that the Hunter's Crossing trail would connect to the Anoka County Rice Creek Chain of <br /> Lakes Regional Park. Council Member Sweeney stated that the Committee was more concerned <br /> with the quality of the trail rather than the width of same. <br /> Mayor Wilharber stated that there has been a considerable amount of time planning within the <br /> City and other cities for consistent trail ways. <br /> Council Member Sweeney stated if it was the intention of the City to create a trail that crosses the <br /> City from east to west then he believed a wider trail would be more accessible and easier to use. <br /> Mayor Wilharber questioned the additional cost for maintaining a larger than planned trail. Mr. <br /> Palzer stated that there would be additional costs involved in maintaining the trail; however, they <br /> would not exceed the benefit and felt that the costs would be minimal. <br /> Mayor Wilharber mentioned the trail in Hunter's Crossing was being created over roots of trees <br /> and questioned if the roots should have been removed in order to prevent them from growing back <br /> through the trail. Mr. Peterson stated that typically roots grow downward and with the gravel and <br /> bituminous over the top, there should be not problems. <br /> Council Member Nelson stated her desire to have consistent trail ways within the community. <br /> Consensus was to add Widening the Hunter's Crossing Development Trail as number 10 under <br /> New Business on the agenda. <br /> Mr. March stated that he had received a letter from residents residing at 1760 Center Street, <br /> indicating that the drain tile underneath their driveway had settled and the driveway needed to be <br /> Page 6of14 <br />
