C Streetscape <br /> <br />FYI <br />Duane <br />-----Original Message----- <br />From: Jackie Schroeder [mailto:jjsgas@attbi.com] <br />Sent: Wednesday, January 22, 2003 10:30 PM <br />To: city.council@ci.roseville.mn.us <br />Cc: duane.schwartz@ci.roseville.mn.us <br />Subject: County Rd. C Streetscape <br /> <br />I would like to comment on the County Road C Streetscape that will be discussed at the Monday night City <br />Council meeting. <br /> <br />I do not feel I should have to pay for burying electrical distribution lines or replacing lattice towers with monopoles. <br />We are living in a well developed suburb and these are not feasible or economical projects to undertake. It <br />sounds like you would be doing this for purely aesthetic reasons on the County Road C Streetscape project and <br />my question to you is, what makes this stretch of road more important than any other neighborhood in the city? I <br />take pride in my neighborhood looking nice too, but I also realize we are not living in a new suburb where we can <br />bury electrical lines easily or economically. This goes for the perfectly good lattice towers too. I must say I did not <br />even think much about them until this Streetscape project has been in the news. I just accepted the fact that we <br />had these major electrical lines going through our city and went on with my life. <br /> <br />We need to think about what is really important to the residents of Roseville. Residents talk about the fact that <br />they don't feel safe in our parks, traffic laws are not being abided by, the cost of maintaining ours current services <br />keeps going up, etc. We could use that money to increase our police force so they could patrol the parks more <br />and enforce our traffic laws. We need to make sure we have the resources to maintain the pathways, parks, <br />roadways and services we now enjoy. <br /> <br />I would like to suggest that you just let the county address the traffic flow issue on County Road C and upgrade <br />the road. Roseville can just make sure we keep the grass mowed and the litter picked up and that will enhance <br />the look of the road immensely. <br /> <br />Jackie Schroeder <br />Roseville Resident <br /> <br />01/27/2003 <br />
