I A. 445 Member Cihacek opined it was good to look at the program in light of 446 current future construction goals to determine if that information or 447 infrastructure has changed since the last review. 448 449 Chair Stenlund also expressed interest in hearing public comment on how 450 the County Road B system is working for residents, as well as speed 451 adjustments made as part of that improvement. 452 453 Generally speaking, Mr. Culver expressed interest in the follow-up concept 454 including that for other recent sidewalk installation areas. While not 455 hearing a lot of comments to -date, and presuming that meant "no news is 456 good news," Mr. Culver agreed that an update would be prudent, since he 457 had fielded no complaints from residents over the summer on prevailing 458 speeds now and any speed issues with the reductio in speed form 40 mph 459 to 35 mph along that segm t of County Road B. 460 461 • Miscellaneous IAL 462 Mr. Culver reported that there would be no follow-up necessary based on 463 the PWETC's recent community tour, other than to add future conditions 464 and information available to the map. 465 466 Member Cihacek noted the potential and fairly significant expansion project 467 at Rosedale Center and asked for a staff update as part of their 468 communication items at the next meeting. 469 470 Mr. Culver advised that the initial conversation would occur at next week's 471 Planning Commission meeting for a proposed new anchor, increasing the 472 mall's square footage significantly and including a proposed parking 473 structure as the new retail space would be located where current parking is 474 located. Mr. Culver reported that a traffic study was already under 475 discussio , and between the Planning Commission and City Council future 476 mitigation efforts required of the applicants would be defined including any 477 additional studies. Mr. Culver advised that at a minimum additional 478 stormwater mitigation for such a large increase in square footage would 479 need review and mitigation recommendations by the watershed district and 480 City. Mr. Culver stated that the City may opt to partner with Rosedale 481 Center and the watershed district to expand the proposed stormwater system 482 to address a broader area, one which already experiences existing capacity 483 issues north of Fairview Avenue. Mr. Culver noted that any added now 484 from Rosedale flowing north up to County Road C would indicate 485 additional mitigation for the regional system. Mr. Culver advised that staff 486 would be working on those issues over the next few months, and would 487 keep the PWETC updated as applicable. 488 Page 11 of 13
