LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES SEPTEMBER 1, 1992 M/S/P Hunt/Mottaz - to direct the staff to draft an ordinance for the next meeting incorporating the concerns of the city council. (Motion carried 4-0). B. Request for blacktopped bike path from DNR access on Gateway Trail to the corner of 59th St. & Hytrail On August 17th the Lake Elmo Parks Commission voted unanimously to construct a blacktop bike path from the DNR access on the Gateway Trail, up to the corner of 59th Street and Hytrail Avenue (385 feet). Parks Supervisor Mike Bouthilet recommended we use Buberl Landscaping ($1,280) for the trail preparation work and Brockman Blacktopping ($2,000) for the 2" lift of asphalt. M/S/P Mottaz/Williams - to direct the staff to prepare a resolution authorizing the blacktopping of a bike path from DNR Access on the Gateway Trail to the corner of 59th Street and Hytrail Avenue. (Motion carried 4-0). C. Hidden Valley Development The City received a copy of a letter from Heritage Development to the Met Council indicated for reasons beyond the control of Heritage Dev., they will not be continuing with the proposed platting of the Hidden Valley subdivision in Oakdale. Heritage Dev. has requested that the Met Council withdraw the Hidden Valley residential development from metropolitan significance review prompted by the City of Lake Elmo and an agreement was provided for the City to sign. M/S/P Williams/Hunt - to accept the agreement to withdraw Hidden Valley Residential Development in the City of Oakdale from Metropolitan Significance review and authorize the city administrator to sign it. (Motion carried 3-1: Mayor Johnson: we should insist on continuing the evaluation process to prevent any development of this density from even getting started. In so doing we prevent being forced to fight a battle of specifics, but rather one of managing the whole question of development density that is detrimental to the interest of the city).
