City Council Regular Meeting - 01110/05 Minutes - Page 17 Further discussion ensued related to requested action; the 60-day ruling; and the need for Council action prior to the February 4, 2005 deadline of the 60-day ruling. Mayor Klausing invited public comment at this time. Terry Moses, 1776 Maple Lane Mr. Moses expressed concern about a super majority of the City Council regarding amending the Comprehensive Plan; noting his conversations with a Real Estate attorney. Al Sands, 2612 Aldine Mr. Sands addressed recent recommendations of the Parks and Recreation Commission regarding park land dedication and potential splitting of the Twin Lakes Parkway, and questioned whether or not the City Council would be acting on their recommendation. Mr. Sands also displayed several maps of the proposed parkway, asking for clarification of his perception of inaccuracies on actual footages and location of the proposed parkway. Sheila Cunningham McComb, and daughter Elly, 3092 Mount Ridge Road As a neighbor of the proposed Twin Lakes project, Ms. McComb had brought her daughter to tonight's meeting for the City Council's awareness of the impacts of their decisions as they related to increased traffic flow and congestion. Ms. McComb noted that her daughter was one of 20 in the neighborhood, and opined that the proposed "big box retail," would have significant and negative impacts on the neighborhood. Ms. McComb specifically requested a statement in the media from Councilmembers Maschka and Schroeder, and Mayor Klausing and staff, justifying their support of this project, benefits and costs of amending the original Master Plan. Ms. McComb concluded by opining that the City didn't need to provide a "corporate handout," citing local tax increases; and as a citizen, taxpayer and voter, requested that a cost benefit analysis be provided to all citizens of Roseville.
