Member Wilke said that as far as location the applicant would have to get <br />appropriate right-of-way permits from the jurisdiction. <br /> <br /> Member Willenbring brought up the issue of benches and shelters co- <br />existing. Rollie Danielson stepped up to speak, saying that they have <br />never had a problem co-existing with shelters and doesn’t see any <br />potential problems in Roseville. He passed around pictures showing <br />locations of shelters and buses on the same site. Member Wilke thought <br />shelters should be located so as not to impede pedestrian traffic. Member <br />Willenbring thought shelters and benches could co-exist. Member Rossini <br />thought they could co-exist and that each of them would be a benefit <br />depending on the weather. Member Marasteanu thought they could co- <br />exist. Member Anderson thought they could co-exist. Member Wilke <br />thought they could co-exist but thought both benches and shelters should <br />be owned by one company. Member Rossini asked Rollie Danielson if <br />losing 11 bus benches in Roseville would hurt their business. He said it <br />definitely would, that they don’t make that much from one bench and they <br />have longstanding relationships with their advertisers. He re-emphasized <br />that in 20 years they have never had a jurisdictional problem with a shelter <br />owner. <br /> <br /> At this point, Schwartz listed the criteria the Commission has agreed upon <br />to this point: <br /> <br /> <br />1)Public hearings to be held in front of Public Works Commission on all <br />shelter placements; <br /> <br />2)All shelters should be lighted <br /> <br />3)Need ridership demonstrated, i.e. intersection of major routes, number <br />of boardings, etc. <br /> <br />4)Permits are needed from roadway jurisdictions to make sure they meet <br />sight requirements, setbacks, etc. <br /> <br />5)Shelters should not impede pedestrian traffic <br /> <br />6)Compliance with ADA requirements <br /> <br />7)50% of advertising should be generated by local firms--north suburban <br />area <br /> <br /> Member Wilke moved to forward the criteria discussed, as well as <br />comments on co-existance, to the Council. Member Willenbring <br />seconded. <br /> <br /> Ayes: 5 <br /> Nays: 0 <br /> Motion carried <br /> <br /> As for shelter locations, Member Anderson wanted it noted that they <br />should look at transfer points. <br /> <br />Page 4 of 5 <br /> <br />
