Residents agreed. He asked if residents thought any of the <br />alternatives presented were reasonable. Residents said no. <br /> <br />Craig Landkamer. 2612 Wheeler <br />He wants the city to stand up to Mn/DOT and try to get them to back <br />down on closing the left turn off of Snelling. <br /> <br />Nate Goldenman. 1756 Oakcrest <br />He said that if they vote to do nothing the intersection will probably be <br />closed immediately, but if they choose an alternative, it would remain <br />open until that alternative could be put into place, which could be years. <br /> <br />Member Willenbring asked the commission where they wanted to go with <br />this. Member DeBenedet said he didn't want Snelling to be a freeway <br />through Roseville and that the city needs to work closer with Mn/DOT and <br />asked staff to give them analysis on that and maybe invite Mn/DOT to the <br />next meeting. <br /> <br />Member Fischer asked about the residents asking to stand up to MnIDOT, <br />is that staff. Schwartz said staff and council would be involved. <br /> <br />Member Neprash said that standing up to MnIDOT and not closing the left <br />turn was the strongest message he received from the residents. He thinks <br />Mn/DOT needs to re-evaluate the Snelling/Oakcrest intersection now that <br />it's been changed to a three-way intersection and the Snelling/County <br />Road C intersection has been restructured. He said MnIDOT needs to <br />channel the Snelling/Oakcrest intersection to make it impossible to turn <br />left onto Snelling. <br /> <br />Member Willenbring asked staff to relay the information from this <br />meeting to Mn/DOT and ask them to send someone to the next <br />commission meeting. <br /> <br />Page 5 of6 <br />
