WX 80 Mr. Schwartz noted the addition of the leaf program registration card in the 81 meeting packet materials for information purposes for the PWETC, noting that the 82 collection program would begin November 3, with the City of Roseville divided 83 into four quadrants. For the benefit of the listening audience, Mr. Schwartz 84 advised that there were still a few remaining days to register for the leaf collection 85 program. 86 87 Vice Chair Gjerdingen noted that the public needed to be aware that any leaves 88 raked onto boulevards after the City or Roseville pe rmed their collection in 89 their neighborhood would not be picked up. 90 91 Mr. Schwartz noted that the public was alerted to this repeatedly, as well as 92 reminders not to put leaves on the sidewalk or on the street to avoid them ending 93 up in the storm sewer system. 94 AV 95 Member Wozniak noted a number of remaining areas along the C unty Road B-2 96 sidewalk with missing asphalt and remaining coned off. 97 Ar 1 98 Mr. Culver responded that this coming Fri y, tFeremaining areas w be milled 99 and overlaid with a 3' patch, as required by MnDOT, and requiring special 100 equipment, thus the delay. Mr. Culver noted his disappointment that the areas had 101 been left open this long; however, he noted that it was difficult to stop people 102 from using the areas even though construction was not yet completed. For the 103 most part, Mr. Culver reported that the County Road B-2 work was completed, 104 and noted the considerable positive feedback from residents using it as 105 construction was finalized, offering a lot of support, and expressing excitement to 106 celebrate this milestone in completing the segment all the way to Rice Street. 107 108 Member ozniak noted the Victor Mo County Road C is also completed, 109 which he was pleased to see. 110 111 Member Lenz noted a portion of Victoria Street where an unimproved footpath 112 crosses the road from the west side of the park to the east side, even though not at 113 a crosswalk, but is used frequently by pedestrians. Over the last thirty years that 114 she'd been observing the area, Member Lenz noted that she had yet to see anyone 115 deviate by proceeding up the hill to cross the street, and suggested it may be time 116 to stripe the location actually being used by pedestrians for crossing. 117 118 While Member Wozniak noted that a pedestrian crossing was striped near Transit 119 Avenue, Member Lenz reiterated that no one goes up to Transit, but comes out of 120 the south end loop and crossest the street there. Since this crossing had been used 121 long-term, Member Lenz suggested the path of least resistance, and inability to 122 change human behavior, would suggest a striped crossing where pedestrians 123 actually crossed. 124 Page 3 of 17
