<br />9 <br /> <br />talking about $35 a foot and I'm not talking total cost, <br />I'm talking about that one-fourth and I'm afraid we'd have <br />some people on that street really complaining and I think <br />some of the people that signed this petition would object <br />spending - what are the lots,' 90 feet? <br /> <br />MR. PERMAN: Or a hundred. <br /> <br />MAYOR DEMOS: So anywhere from $2700 to $3,000. I'm <br />not so sure they would want it that way then. I don't think <br />the west end - like I said, it's just covering it up and <br />each time it covers up a bigger amount so I guess that's what <br />disturbs me is that I'm not sure (inaudible) may be scheduled <br />for four years but I don't know if it would hold out that <br />long. <br /> <br />MR. PERMAN: But it's a traffic regulator. <br /> <br />MAYOR DEMOS: I went down there about ten days ago, and I <br />have a pet peeve in children's toys. If I had my way they'd <br />go off the market. It's called "big wheels". One came out <br />of a driveway and there are not many hills, but there's an <br />incline. Fortunately I was going about 12 miles an hour. <br />I didn't go two lots and one came out of the driveway from <br />the left. If I were a parent living on Skillman my children <br />wouldn't be in "big wheels"anywhere except my basement or <br />garage. They would not be coming down those driveways. <br /> <br />MR. PERMAN: I feel that's a dangerous situation but <br />that's very common-place in residential areas and unfortunately <br />it happens on the street, but some day someone will get hit <br />in the general area that you've been talking about. <br /> <br />MAYOR DEMOS: Those were preschoolers and they should <br />not have been out there. <br /> <br />MR. PERMAN: The plea I would have to the Council is you <br />give the street the same consideration that you did very early <br />in the history of Roseville at the time when an arterial stop <br />was considered on Snelling Avenue. It was considered at <br />one time (inaudible) at the end of Snelling and fortuitously <br />it was moved up to McDonald's (inaudible) Skillman did <br />connect to Snelling Avenue. <br /> <br />MAYOR DEMOS: What are you suggesting? <br /> <br />MR. PERMAN: I'm just asking the Council to act in <br />preserving the residential characteristics of that neighborhood <br />and I'm afraid if we go to a 36 foot street it will take it <br />
