MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />MAI2CA 8, 1995 <br />Fahey felt at the minimum a cost estimate was needed <br />along with potential funding sources. <br />Sanders suggested that he could get cost information on <br />other bridge projects which have been done recently. <br />Howard Remerowski pointed out that the City's trail <br />system is in pieces and may never be linked. <br />Remerowski asked if the Park & Recreation Commission <br />should be looking for alternative ways of connecting <br />the trail system, or if the City feels the missing <br />pieces under the powerlines should be aggressively <br />pursued. <br />Scalze pointed out that when the Heinel property is <br />developed, the City can then take the property <br />necessary for the trail connection. <br />Remerowski and Morelan indicated that the Heinel's have <br />informed them that they have no intentions of <br />developing. Morelan pointed out that it could be quite <br />some time before the City qets this connection, so <br />perhaps it is necessary to look at alternatives. One <br />would be bringing the trail system down Payne Avenue <br />and over to LaBore Road. <br />Scalze pointed out that the development of the Denery <br />property will complete the system under the powerlines <br />east of Payne Avenue to LaBore Road. <br />Fahey pointed out that trail connections have a public <br />purpose and suggested that perhaps the impact of the <br />connection on the property should be looked at. If the <br />impact is not great, perhaps the City should pursue the <br />property. Fahey stated that he did not want to spend <br />money bringing a trail down Payne Avenue to LaBore Road <br />and then to Edgerton, when there are only one or two <br />pieces missing to complete the powerline trail system. <br />Pedersen pointed out that the property under the <br />powerlines is not usable for anything else. <br />Fahey pointed out that the property owners on Keller <br />Parkway did not want paved shoulders on the street. <br />Fahey stated that the trail connection would serve the <br />public good. <br />Scalze pointed out that the Keller Parkway shoulders <br />3 <br />
