a fully developed suburb and everything done was a retrofit, not"one size fits all. <br /> Ms. Bloom concurred, noting that a concern in adopting such a policy was to <br /> allow enough flexibility recognizing that the Cities of Bloomington and <br /> Woodbury had also fielded a significant amount of resistance to this type of <br /> implementation. <br /> Member DeBenedet noted the need for this type of standard to always have an <br /> exception clause; however, he opined that it was important to get the concept out <br /> there and strive for its implementation to provide for all users in a multi-modal <br /> world. Member DeBenedet stated that his first criteria was to get people where <br /> they wanted to go safely; and opined that the TMP touches on some of these <br /> issues as well, as does the Comprehensive Storm Water Plan. Member <br /> DeBenedet noted comments regarding narrower street, traffic calming features or <br /> parking bays. <br /> Member Stenlund spoke in support of staff drafting a policy, using the Falcon <br /> Heights model, as a framework for discussion by the PWETC at a future meeting. <br /> Staff noted that initial discussions would need to be broader, and suggested using <br /> the "Tool Kit" referenced by Member DeBenedet as part of that broader <br /> discussion to break things down into detail. <br /> Chair Vanderwall noted his research of the Portland, OR model as another model <br /> for individual commissioners to review; and suggested this item as a future <br /> agenda item. Chair Vanderwall expressed appreciation for the Falcon Heights <br /> model since it was a community adjacent to Roseville with similar values. <br /> Member DeBenedet suggested a City Policy would fit perfectly with that of <br /> MnDOT and Ramsey County. <br /> Member Gjerdingen suggested a template to review before determining which of <br /> the recommended models for review would work best for Roseville; and by <br /> consensus, was referenced to the different policies available on line for his <br /> individual research. <br /> 9. Possible Items for Next Meeting—June 26, 2012 <br /> Commissioners and staff reviewed potential items for the June meeting, including <br /> Assessment Policy revisions; draft Comprehensive Surface Water Plan review; <br /> Complete Streets draft by staff, and a discussion of the joint meeting with the City <br /> Council. <br /> 10.
