right-idright-out intersection. Member DeBenedet said that if the commercial alternatives are selected, the city would be tied up in court for a long time and nothing would be accomplished. Member DeBenedet said he'd like to get it down to two recommendations—#3 and #�6 make the most sense because of cost and number of homes impacted. Member Fischer said �#C is the only option to the north so that should be included, but should they present more than one option for the east and west so maybe #4 should be included as well. Member Neprash said he had problems with #6 in that it doesn't resolve the Fairview problem. Also, the State could come in any time and totally close Snelling so that shouldn't be counted on as a permanent access. He thinks they should resolve �'airview access by having a complete, signaled intersection and then �ave the access on C as an alternative if they totally close Snelling. Bloom said she believes for the State to totally close an intersection, they have to have municipal consent. Schwartz said that County Road C was just reconstructed with the idea of a full intersection in mind and that there are problems with a�airview access. Member Willenbring asked what problems there will be with a new railroad crossing. Schwartz said we already have a crossing. Member DeBenedet said that there are things he lil{es about Alternative #4, but the curves could be sharpened a bit. Member Neprash suggested they move forward with Alteratives #3, #4 and #6. Bloom said she would try to sharpen #4. Member Willenbring said they would recommend Alternatives #3, �#4 and #6 to the residents at the public hearing in October. Member Neprash asked how aware the residents were of this process. Bloom said they were definitely aware that discussions were happening. _ Member Neprash asked what kind of outreach, especially to the residents directly affected, would be appropriate. Bloom said she would send mailings to all residents in the area. Page 2 of � �
