NEW BUSINESS None VL DISCUSSION ITEMS Snowmobiles - CSAH 14 & CSAH 54 City Administrator Larson requested that the use of snowmobiles on CSAH 14 and CSAH 54 be discussed. He suggested that the restriction in the Ordinance should extend farther east than previously was the case, because of the construction and the fact that there are no ditches. He suggested that the snowmobiles could go down the side streets. He added that Centerville's Ordinance follows the County's Ordinance, and the Planning and Zoning Commission would need to get feedback regarding this from Anoka County. Councilmember Broussard-Vickers stated that, in the last few years, there has not been much snow. She stated that about 3 years ago, however, there was some discussion about not allowing snowmobiling within the City anymore, and that caused a huge outcry. She added that the Rice Creek Snowmobile Association had a few members and a few volunteers who claimed they did not know what the rules were. She stated that the proposed trails on 20th would take up the right-of--way, and there would not be enough safe distance from the pedestrian walkways. Commissioner Wood read a section of Chapter 72 regarding snowmobiles. Discussion ensued. Councilmember Broussard-Vickers suggested that the Commission request that the County think about what the restrictions will be and respond back to the Commission by January. Chair Love stated that they would have to wait for the roads to change and the snow to fly to see if there would be an issue or not. He stated that, two years ago, snowmobilers made a promise to be more careful. Page 2 of 3 City of Centerville Planning and Zoning Commission November 3, 2008 2.
