the County to consider two eleven -foot driving lanes and two five - <br />foot shoulders. <br />Schact reported that he has plan sheets with him this evening to <br />show how the 32 -foot road would fit into the area, as well as its <br />impact on trees and fences. There will be some tree removal <br />necessary. Schact began a section by section review of the <br />improvement. <br />The first section runs from Edgerton 1,000 feet north. This <br />section only requires the widening of the street and addition of <br />shoulders. No impact on trees. The second section continues <br />further north to County Ditch #16. The culverts under the road <br />would be extended by 6 feet in either direction. Guard rails would <br />be added. The next section continues north to Lakeside Court to <br />house 711. Additional width and shoulders added and there is the <br />need to remove two large cottonwood trees. Next section is from <br />house 715 to 805. Additional road width - no tree removal. <br />Dale Kingsbury pointed out that driveways are steep in this section <br />and asked the effect of the additional road width on driveways. <br />Schact felt it possible to get the additional width in without <br />steepening the driveways. The County is aware that it will have to <br />be careful in this area. The additional width would likely be <br />added to both sides of the road, but that will vary depending on <br />the exact location. <br />Dean Hedlund asked if the County has made fill and cut <br />calculations. <br />Schact reported that fill and cut calculations are not done in a <br />maintenance project of this type. <br />Schact continued his section review and reported that one tree will <br />need to be removed in the area of 828 Keller Parkway. From 2776 <br />Keller Parkway to Kohlman Lane there are 11 trees that will need to <br />be removed. Four are double oaks. Schact pointed out that there <br />are 225 trees within the road right -of -way for Keller Parkway. <br />This project will result in total removal of 14 trees. <br />A resident was concerned about the effect of the project on the <br />other oak trees around the lake. The resident predicted that 60% <br />of the trees will go due to the added pressure the road improvement <br />will cause. <br />Schact replied that the County hopes to shift the project as far <br />north as possible to stay away from trees. <br />Schact reported that there the project includes no curbing. <br />A resident asked about guard rails. <br />2 <br />Page 57 <br />
