City Council Work Session Meeting Monday, March 19, 2018 Page 10 Councilmember Laliberte stated Crime Prevention does not exactly equate to en- hancing safety because some crimes are not as much as a safety issue as they are an infringement on someone else. Councilmember Etten stated he would be okay with spelling out the acronym and its meaning. Councilmember McGehee noted the plans 25, 26, and 27 are nicely presented. However, the forecast chart appears on page 8, and then part of it appears in the discussion of it on page 20; it needs some more coherence. Councilmember Willmus asked for some background on the protection of historic sites listed on page 22. Ms. Perdu noted that paragraph was purposely written to be vague. The protec- tion of historic sites is a generic requirement of the Met Council. There are no implementation strategies tied to historic preservation. Councilmember Willmus asked to specify what the City actually does, rather than what the City does not do, such as preserve historic buildings. Councilmember Etten noted that on page 24, map 4-5, dots are placed on the en- tire SE area of Roseville. Mayor Roe noted these designations are inconsistent with the ones in the Eco- nomic Development chapter. Ms. Perdu stated the Rice/Larpenteur area should be the same as in the Economic Development section; likewise, with the Har-Mar area. Councilmember Etten noted the mention of a community center on page 26. He suggested that the heading should be retooled like "community gathering spaces," so as not to create the wrong impression in the reader. Councilmember McGehee noted that on page 25, under implementation strategies for Housing and Commercial, there is nothing about sense of scale or pedestrian access. She suggested keeping in mind pedestrian access, green space, and sense of scale. Mr. Lloyd noted a bullet point that mentions sense of scale. Councilmember McGehee emphasized the importance of pedestrian access and green space as the City proposes to develop areas around Roseville. Mayor Roe pointed out a bullet point including those areas.
