LANDSCAPE SCREENING PETITION <br />I 694 - Adjacent to Twin Lake Trail <br />Little Canada <br />To the Mayor and City Council of Little Canada: <br />We the undersigned, residents and property owners of homes along <br />Twin Lake Trail in Little Canada, adjacent to Interstate 694, <br />request that the City Council adopt a resolution requesting that <br />the Minnesota Department of Transportation install a landscape <br />screen along Interstate 694 to visually screen the traffic from <br />the residential housing along these city streets. <br />A landscape screen, consisting of berming and selected deciduous <br />and evergreen plant materials, would provide psychological and <br />visual relief from the heavy daily traffic volumes along this <br />freeway corridor. While this type of treatment would not lessen <br />the noise levels at each of the (iy1) homes, such a screen would <br />visually block out the noise source providing psychological relief. <br />This type of screen will also lessen the effect of dust and other <br />pollutants eminating from freeway traffic. In addition, the land- <br />scape screen would aesthetically enhance this major traffic corridor <br />within Little Canada, benefiting the city and preserving the property <br />values of the residential homes in a small way. <br />This petition is submitted for adoption by the Little Canada City <br />Council and we request that it be sent on for consideration by the <br />Commissioner of the Department of Transportation. - <br />NAME : ADDRESS: <br />/55 Jci0) ae 'Jhaif <br />.e2ari - ulle <br />t;,., �1 °e -444, <br />✓`7704te avzi) cL Q <br />`/a.�fd ,Mt -e. ci c ;isd <br />PAGE -2 <br />
