5 Figure 2: Photo of project staff showing open house attendee Scenario 2 display board Comments Received via Website Comment Form • 1 comment form was submitted through the website: o Concern that another large commercial area with stores such as Target and Kohls will chop up Lino Lakes. Staff explained that the businesses in the commercial will be neighborhood-scale and not include large-scale stores Comments Received on Interactive Map Scenario 2.1: • “There is already a lot of traffic on Robinson Dr and Century Trail and connecting this road to the commercial zone will add additional traffic that will make the roads more unsafe for families and children. The purple commercial zones should be accessed from Main St since that road is more appropriate for volume traffic. Neighborhoods should also have natural separation like multiple rows of trees to provide an aesthetically pleasing view when looking out your windows or playing in backyards instead of high density housing and apartment complexes with little nature.” • “Having high density in the middle of low density seems like a future traffic nightmare. This high density backs up to 20 -40acre personal properties of private homeowners that are trying to preserve the land for nature and personal use. Keeping all high density close to Main Street to help detour wildlife makes the most sense, along with the future congestion high density will bring. Low density the 6 further you go into the north side of this land to actually attempt to preserve the land, like the current homeowners are doing on Pine Street.” • “As someone that lives here, anything that cuts through our properties is unacceptable. Do residents realize that this is already a residential area? The city is making plans for an area where people already live and are not happy about this. The fact that the city is looking to potentially take land away from people is insane. We do not want to be developed.” ATTACHMENT B - ENGAGEMENT SUMMARIES (CONT.)
