f . � Area C: Commercial Trail Area C is within Centerville and is currently zoned commercial. A trail through tlus area will accommodate pedestrians aaid bicycles and provide a route to either Main Street to the north or a route to parks to the west by going through area J. Area D: Main Street Area D is Main Street, well traveled by automobiles, pedestrians, and bicycles. Pressure for a pedestrian route from downtown Centerville to the developing commercial area by 35E will grow expanentially and something will need to be done to protect pedestrians and cyclists. The Minnesota Design Team suggested a phased approach here with areas mazked off for pedestrians and bicycles in the interim, and complete sepazation from automobile traffic in the future. If Main Street is redone, perhaps a trail could be included without affecting eacisting property owners. If one side had to be chosen, the north side of Main Street appears better for a trail as there is vacant property, a strip mall, and a convenience store on that side of the street. The one house that is clase to the street on the north side will likely become cammercial. The urgency here is #hat commercial �ropertv is bein d� eveloped along Main Street and with �roper plannin�, a separate irail could be built in sechons as the developments were done The current su nosed trail at the strip mall was not built to anv specs aud will have to be rebuilt Area E: "Sunset Park" Overlookin�Centerville Lake 'The Mixuiesota Design Team saw this area as the "Town Square" of Centerville. A park and pier on Centerville Lake could coe�st with a circulaz trail around Centerville Lake. The sketch in Figure Z shows one idea The trail continuing around Centerville Lake atso fits with the Anoka County Park plan. The urgenc�here is to acquire ' propertv when it comes up for sa1e. i - I , _ ��, �� �� "��M � ��' u I, , : �t ` t'w �� - :� : �� .. - �� _ � � � �� , �� ' �� ,,� ' � � � � �` � S .. j F � Y� • , _ . �, � r : � �' a....� `�� - ; �',��M�� 3 Garr�%'�'M� - _ �� - � = � _ _ _ ' ".r . � � � § � � �� _ I , # g �� N � � `�` 1 I � ; . � , �.. . . .
