FROM: DENNIS WELSCH, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIREC~ SUBJECT: TRIANGLE WAREHOUSE PROJECT (P.F. 3105) DATE: 03/12/99 After the meeting on 3/11/99, I reviewed Roseville's interest in retaining the BN (Burlington Northern) railroad right-of-way adjacent to County Road "C". The City's 1998 Comprehensive Plan states that the City should: Provide input into the rail corridor planning and abandonment processes. If rails are to be removed, the corridors should be preserved for public uses such as light rail or pathways. a) If there is a rail line abandonment in Roseville, an appropriate public agency should acquire the land for public purposes. b) Light rail planning should receive input from Roseville. Roseville should preserve potential rights-of-way and station locations and identify possible routes for tributary bus service. c) Identify and work with the decision-makers on approved LR T routes in Roseville.
