� b. The provision of a letter from Metro Transit endorsing the proposed location of the transit hub, the location of the bus staging area and location of the park-n-ride lot and a condition in the final PUD agreement that requires the Mall to provide a location for a Regional Transit Huh at the mall, subject only to Metro Transit's wishes to retain the hub at the Ma1L (The Transit Hub is part of the City's comprehensive plan concepts for traffic management and disbursement in Roseville). Jones Lang La�alle and Metro Transit have agreed in principal to a 20 year use agreement (addendum to existing agreement) that will identify the responsibility of those improvements discussed in this report and indicated on the attached plans. c. Review and approval of the traffic study and proposed access improvements by the Ramsey County Traffic Engineer, MnDOT, the City, and Metro Transit, including their agreement regarding the schedule of needed traffic mitigation efforts, both short term and long term, and agreement on allocation of traffic mitigation costs. Although staff can determine and require improvements directly attributed to the redevelapmentlexpansion of Rosedale, it is unable to require Ramsey County ��dlo�' MnDOT to agree to a long term plan for programming and funding regional transportation issues in and around Rosedale Center. d. Completion (City, County, Rosedale) of the work necessary to create a safe, accessible, clearly marked, and signed pathway system on the south side of County Road B-2 and through the �arkingltraff c movement areas that will improve pedestrian access to the mall, lifestyle center, and theater. The Public Works Department is in the process of obtaining the necessary easements to reconstruct the existing trail along the south side of County Road B2. The proposed Final Development Plan includes pedestrian traillsidewalk connections from County Road B2 (including a clearly marked crosswalk) to the lower level shops; from tbe ring-road pariang lot adjacent to County Road B2 to the transit hubltheater (including a clearly marked crosswalk); from the ring roadJpark-n-ride Lot adj acent to Highway 36 to the transit hubltheater (including a clearly marked crosswalk); an elaborate pedestrian plaza, including an elevator and stair connection from the lower level parking lo�Ishops to the upper level parking lot, and pedestrian pat�lwall�way in front of both upper and lower level shops and extending to the maj or mall entries adj acent to Green Mill and Big Bowl; and bus pick-up and drop-off near Big Bt�wllMacaroni Grill. Access to the theater must he provided from both parking lots. This will require a direct pedestrian access from the lower level (west) parking lot. The revised proposal includes an elaborate �lazal�ede�trian connection that runs between the retail shopslrestaurant addition and the retail shopsltheater structures. This plazalpedestrian connection provides a direct link between the lower level parking lot and the upper level parking lot. PF3608_RCA_Fi��albevelopment_0411Q5 Page 10 of 12
