�: <br />81 Chair Ficek suggested examining the community survey scheduled for 2026 and its <br />82 possible effects on public safety and other issues. <br />83 <br />84 Discussion continued on public safety topics: drinking water, ADA and <br />85 accessibility, speed limits, parks, drainage, lighting, and fireworks. <br />86 <br />87 Member Luongo brought up the AARP audit and the importance of comparing it to <br />88 the city's ADA transition plan. <br />89 <br />90 8. Municipal State Aid Streets (MSAS) Safety Plan <br />91 Assistant Public Works Director / City Engineer Jennifer Lowry presented the <br />92 Municipal State Aid Streets Safety Plan, highlighting the top 50 segments or <br />93 intersections identified for safety improvements. <br />94 <br />95 Discussion on the plan's recommendations, including traffic calming measures, <br />96 intersection improvements, and access control changes, took place. <br />97 <br />98 Ms. Lowry noted that the plan recommended a total of 132 projects at these 50 <br />99 locations with a combined cost of approximately $5.12 million. She explained the <br />100 high-level cost and crash reduction factor (CRF), detailing the crash severity <br />101 categories (K, A, B, C). The plan is an internal document for recommendations, not <br />102 mandatory actions, and involves discussing potential actions with state or county <br />103 authorities <br />104 <br />105 Ms. Lowry provided examples of urban segments, intersections, and pedestrian <br />106 studies, highlighting specific projects like County Road B and Snelling with a $2 <br />107 million recommended investment. The analysis involved reviewing aerial views <br />108 and Google Maps to identify risk factors and prioritize intersections based on crash <br />109 data and complaints. <br />110 <br />111 Ms. Lowry explained the advantages of the plan for funding applications, including <br />112 the Federal Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) and its sixty percent <br />113 share for local streets. <br />114 <br />115 Ms. Lowry explained that the report encourages the City of Roseville to apply for <br />116 HSIP using the developed sheets and to coordinate with MnDOT and Ramsey <br />117 County on shared right-of-way projects. She suggested packaging lower -cost <br />118 improvements, such as signing and striping, to make progress on multiple projects. <br />119 The plan can be used to strengthen applications for programs like Safe Streets for <br />120 All and Safe Routes to School. <br />121 <br />122 Ms. Lowry acknowledged the pilot program's awkwardness and the need for <br />123 adjustments in language and terminology between county and city levels. <br />124 <br />Page 3 of 4 <br />Page 80 of 81 <br />
