The Mayor asked that I respond to your request. <br />In 1997 after about 2 years of intensive work, the City Council adopted the Pathway <br />System Master Plan which includes the segment you mention. Enclosed is a Park, <br />Pathway, and Facility Map that indicates the existing pathways (58.9 miles) as well as <br />the proposed pathways (40.5 miles). In addition I have included the groups' highest <br />priority rankings and description. The good news is that as a result of the master plan <br />many trails have been completed but the bad news is that many have not been due to <br />the unavailability of resources (for construction and ongoing maintenance costs). <br />Mayor Klausing gave you a brief history of Vista 2000, the pathway committee and the <br />plan and where we are at today. The Vista 2000 process strongly indicated the <br />importance of pathways to our community. Both transportation and leisure committees <br />listed pathways as their main goals for the future of Roseville. But again, at this time no <br />resources have been identified to complete or maintain the segment you are interested <br />in. We will continue to search for outside funding sources as possible but there are <br />certainly no guarantees. <br />We thank you for your willingness to take the time to contact the City. You have a <br />legitimate request which is in the master plan but does not appear to be in the near <br />future due to the lack of resources. There is a long list of pathway needs (40.5 miles <br />worth). In many cases the master plan has been implemented in conjunction with <br />roadway reconstruction projects. <br />(Continued) <br />2660 Cimc Center L�� �ve i`' Roseville, Minnesota 55113 <br />651-792-�US�; a TDD 651-792-7399 ��-a�w�i roseville mri us <br />
