choose to keep, modify, or remove the segment and that discussion would guide <br />any updates rather than formal motions at this stage. <br />Member Brokaw Palalay recommended keeping the segment, noting that the <br />existing pathway was already busy and that maintaining the planned connection <br />was supported. <br />Mr. Freihammer asked whether the Commission wanted to modify the segment <br />description to reflect that the connection would be from County Road C2 to <br />County Road D, noting that the segment between County Road C and County <br />Road C2 had already been constructed in recent years. <br />Member Fergus recommended modifying the segment, noting that the portion <br />from County Road C to County Road C2 had already been completed. <br />Mr. Freihammer explained that portions of the pathway had already been <br />constructed as part of recent development. He noted that the apartment and <br />senior housing developments installed segments of sidewalk or pathways as <br />part of their projects, and that the City completed additional connections around <br />the same time, approximately five years ago. <br />Member Fergus asked whether the segment being discussed included the large <br />wetland area. <br />Mr. Freihammer confirmed that the segment included the wetland area, noting <br />that it is part of Ramsey County land associated with Lake Johanna and <br />Josephine Park. He indicated that staff would modify the segment description <br />to reflect the connection from County Road C2 to County Road D. <br />Mr. Freihammer then introduced the next segment, 12A on Lexington Avenue, <br />described as completing an off -road pathway on the east side from Larpenteur <br />Avenue to County Road B. He noted that the missing portion is only between <br />Larpenteur Avenue and Roselawn Avenue, as a sidewalk has already been <br />constructed north of Roselawn. He indicated that the description could be <br />modified accordingly. <br />Member Fergus clarified that there is a sidewalk north of Roselawn and asked <br />whether the proposed segment would be an on -road trail or pathway. <br />Mr. Freihammer clarified that the segment would be an off -road pathway. <br />Chair Ficek noted that the segment was intended to recognize a gap in the <br />system and acknowledged that it represented a missing connection. <br />
