What is the justification to Roseville taxpayers for the city to give the county a million <br /> dollars for a bikeway project, plus take responsibility for 100% of the maintenance and <br /> reconstruction costs in the future, yet object to having any involvement in planning and <br /> construction, claiming it is not the city's project? <br /> Is the city aware that at $505 per foot, this bikeway project will likely be one of the most <br /> expensive pieces of off road pavement ever laid in the city, even if adjusted for inflation? <br /> How does the city justify stealing a million dollars from the Municipal State Aid road <br /> repair fund for this bikeway, a fund that exists to relieve residents on major city streets <br /> from having to pay large assessments for road repairs? <br /> When the city bankrupts the Municipal State Aid road repair fund, which city <br /> homeowners living on MSA roads will be forced to pay thousands of dollars of street <br /> assessments due to money being stolen to construct this bikeway? <br /> How many other projects proposed, constructed, and built by the county, has the city <br /> agreed to take on full maintenance and replacement costs for the next 100+ years? <br /> If the county wants this project, why is the city so eager to pay for a large portion of it, <br /> bankrupt the MSA fund, and take on all responsibility for maintenance and <br /> replacement? <br /> Will the city stay silent when the county lies to the state by claiming that this bikeway is <br /> needed for children to walk to Emmet D. Williams in order to get Safe Routes to School <br /> funding, when the city knows full well that the school district busses all K-6 students <br /> to/from their home driveways and requires parents to sign releases if they refuse bus <br /> service? <br /> Why did the city move the County Road C pathway from the north side of the street to <br /> the south side where it was eventually constructed? <br /> Why did the city pay to construct two front yard fences in conjunction with the <br /> construction of the County Road B pathway between Lexington and Hamline Avenue? <br /> What is the driving factor to construct a bikeway on Victoria Street from Arbogast Street <br /> to North Owasso Boulevard when a parallel pathway exists 1500 feet to the east? <br />
