City of Roseville Pathway Master Plan <br />3. BACKGROUND <br />History of Roseville's Pathways <br />Trail development in Roseville started during the early 1970s with a small loop in <br />Sandcastle Park which led to the construction of the very popular Central Park system, <br />the 1995 construction of the County Road C pathway, and the 1997 expansion of the <br />Acorn Park trails. In 1975, a comprehensive plan for trails was developed similar to <br />the network that is being proposed with this document. The desire was to have an <br />integrated system of paths that connected residents to area parks. The intent was <br />mainly recreational. <br />The City's first pathway plan created a surge of development in the 1970s locating <br />pathways mainly in the parks. City code was changed later to dictate that developers <br />were responsible for providing pedestrian accommodations to their new facility, so <br />sidewalks started to sprout up in commercial and industrial areas. Outside funding <br />sources became more available in the 1980s, which also increased the development <br />of pathways including a growing interest in basic pathway facilities for bike commuters. <br />As a follow-up to Vista 2000, on September 11, 1995 the City Council appointed a <br />volunteer advisory committee to work with staff to develop a comprehensive pathway <br />master plan. The advisory committeewas made up of fourteen Roseville residents and <br />three staff members. This plan was approved by City Council in 1997 and updated in <br />2003. The main focus of the 2003 update was to re -prioritize the list of pathway <br />project thatwere identified within the 1997 plan, eliminating the ones that had been <br />constructed and creating new priorities. A similar process occurred in 2008 as part of <br />the last Pathways Master Plan Update. <br />Current Conditions <br />Demographics <br />The 2015 American Community Survey (a five-year average of general population <br />characteristics) indicates that Roseville has a stable population; this is mainly due to <br />limited developable land. Some additional demographic information is provided <br />below: <br />• Roseville's population was 33,690 in 2000. In 2015, the population was 34,948. <br />This is approximately an increase of four percent since 2000. <br />• The City's forecasted 2040 population is expected to remain near current levels. <br />• The percent of the population over the age of 50 has continued to increase. <br />However, Roseville is seeing an increase in younger residents and families as the <br />percentage of residents in the 20 to 34 age group has also increased between <br />2000 and 2015. <br />• The overall age of Roseville is notably older than the county and the region. The <br />2015 median age of Roseville's population was 40.8 years. This compares with <br />34.6 years for Ramsey County and 36.9 years for the region. <br />Page 11 <br />
