MINUTES <br />Parks & Recreation Commission <br />Apri13, 2008 <br />Waterworks Trail. He thought the trail would not necessarily be constructed in the immediate <br />future, but thought the acquisition of both property requests could be done at one time. <br />TRAIL AND Sanders pointed out the location of each of the trails that have been listed as proposed projects <br />SIDEWALK on the large display board map and commented on each trail as follows: <br />SYSTEM <br />1.) Centerville Road/County Road D <br />This trail has been delayed waiting for Ramsey County to rebuild the road. <br />It is proposed to be a separate bike path and should be continued all the way <br />on County Road D to Highway 61. This would have to be coordinated with the <br />City of Maplewood. Morelan commented that he did not think it was a high priority <br />for Maplewood. Davis commented that Labore Road could be used as an alternate <br />route until this trail was completed. <br />2.) Power Line Trail/Payne Avenue to Pioneer Park <br />Sanders commented that the trail is complete from Payne Avenue to the east, but <br />homeowners have not wanted to give up their easements going westward. It is <br />possibly time to contact these residents again. <br />3.) Waterworks Trail/Railroad Crossing <br />The City is currently negotiating with the railroads about the approval needed to <br />complete this trail. <br />4.) Rice Street Trail <br />Sanders commented that this might be wrong to call this a trail as there is no <br />sidewalk. There is a study group, as well as Ramsey County, working on this long- <br />term project. <br />5.) North/South Connection- Middle School to Troutbrook <br />This trail runs along the St. Jude property and is planned to connect to the <br />Troutbrook Trail in Maplewood on the south side of Highway 36. This hail would <br />require a bridge over Highway 36 and Sanders believes it will be looked at in more <br />detail when the Rice Street/Highway 36 bridge project is considered. It was <br />suggested that the City Council speak to State Representative Bev Scalze about a <br />separate bike trail bridge over Highway 36. The City of Maplewood has contacted <br />Bill Sanders about this trail so they are also working on this trail connection. <br />6.) Waterworks Trail -Little Canada Road to Sextant <br />This hail is dependent upon a land use agreement or purchase from St. John's <br />Church and other property owners' approval. <br />7.) Sunset Court/Turnquist Wetland Trail and Boardwalk <br />Sanders stated this trail is mostly a boardwalk trail. <br />8.) 35E Pedestrian Crossing <br />Page 2 of 4 <br />
