Mr. Nielson stated that he did not see any prob1em with this, Mayor Hanson stated that the City shou1d be concerned with the closing of the intersection on County Road D and Flighway 61. The Planner stated that there should not be a problem, considering the way Litt1e Canada has been cut up in the past.

The Planner stated that he will pursue these concerns of Metro Council and will give the Council a copy of his reply. The Planner indicated that Metro Counci1 has scheduled the review for June 11. Since the next Council meeting is June 10, the Planner requested that he be allowed to submit his reply to Metro Council and inform them that it is subject to the ap~roval of the Council. The Council can review it on June 10, and the Planner will call Metro Council on June 11 to indicate whether the revisions have Council approval. Mrs. Nardini asked the Planner if the Comprehensive Plan indicated a bike trail on County Road B-2 between Edgerton and Arcade. The P1anner indicated that there is a proposed bike trail for this area. 1'he Planner a1so indicated that he has reviewed the Comprehensive Plans of the City of Vadnais Heights, Roseville and Ramsey County. The P7anner felt that there was nothing critical to the City of Little Canada in these plans. The Comprehensive Plan of the City of Roseville is consistent with Little Canada's Plan. Little Canada's land use on Rice Street is more intense than that of Roseville's. The City might want to send a letter noting this difference. The Planner stated that in the City of Vadnais Heights apartment development is handled through conditional use permits. The City does not require that public hearing notices be sent out on apartment development. The Planner suggested that Little Canada request that Vadnais Heights inform Litt1e Canada residents affected of this type of proposed development. Mrs. Scalze pointed out that additional apartments and commercial develop- ment is proposed for the remaining area of County Road D. Mrs. Scalze also expressed concern for the development of Edgerton Street in Vadnais Heights. Scalze was concerned with the traffic situation on Edgerton. The Planner suggested that in the interest of cooperation Little Canada should request Vadnais Heights to nogify the City when something is going in on Little Canada's borders. Page -10-
