Member DeBenedet noted that this is a two-lane road with shoulders and a lot of <br /> traffic; and on County Road D from Fairview to Cleveland Avenues, it tied into <br /> existing sidewalks all the way to Minneapolis and St. Anthony and beyond. <br /> Member DeBenedet noted that this also provided a connection in that corner of <br /> the City of Roseville where some residents felt they were not considered or <br /> included part of the City. Member DeBenedet opined that the segment north of <br /> County Road C was fine as currently ranked; however, he agreed with Member <br /> Felice that something had been overlooked. Member DeBenedet opined that this <br /> may be one situation where having just installed sidewalk on the east side of the <br /> street, it may make more sense to add some along the west side than having it on <br /> the north side of County Road C between Western and Rice due to the <br /> commercial nature of the area. <br /> Member Felice concurred; noting that people were coming from the malls on the <br /> east side, and the current access was very inconvenient to navigate, especially in <br /> the winter, and at the bus stop at Oakcrest. <br /> Mr. Schwartz noted that, one advantage of having these segments identified, <br /> whether a high priority or not, when commercial properties were rehabilitated, the <br /> City can make installation of a sidewalk part of that development or <br /> redevelopment. <br /> Member Stenlund suggested, given the lack of consensus on this segment, that <br /> further consideration and discussion was indicated at a later date. <br /> Member Gjerdingen suggested adding an additional line to the spreadsheet for <br /> that segment identified by Member Felice or broken into revised segments based <br /> on tonight's discussion. <br /> Members concurred with adding a segment on Fairview from County Road C to <br /> C-2, as suggested by Member Gjerdingen. <br /> At the request of Member Gjerdingen, Members Felice and DeBenedet opined <br /> that the south segment should rank higher in priority. <br /> Member DeBenedet advised that he was adding a new entry: County Road B-2 to <br /> County Road C (west side sidewalk) with no known cost at this time, and <br /> individual ranking offered by members as follows: <br /> • Felice = 1 <br /> • Gjerdingen= 2.5 <br /> • DeBenedet = 2.5 <br /> • Stenlund = 2.0 <br /> Member Felice noted that this averages to a composite ranking of"T' moving it <br /> closer to the top of the spreadsheet. <br /> Page 11 of 19 <br />
