Park and Recreation Commission <br /> Minutes <br /> August 27, 1987 <br /> Page four <br /> 3. A bridge was specifically planned to route • <br /> traffic through the area. <br /> 4. The residents feel that much study went into the <br /> comprehensive plan and that at least as much <br /> study should go into changing it. <br /> 5. He urged the Commission to "hold out" for the <br /> bridge. <br /> 6. In the plan it said something about defeasance <br /> and other funds. Why wasn't the bridge put in <br /> already? <br /> 7. Mr. Rademacher talked to the Ramsey County Tax <br /> Assessor who said there is a diminished value if <br /> property is exposed to greater risk of burglery, <br /> vandalism, etc. <br /> 8. He stated that they had organized a clean-up and <br /> care enough to pick up the park. They provide a <br /> certain amount of surveillance for the park and <br /> do call police when necessary. The residents <br /> have done their best to make their property <br /> attractive for people looking across the pond <br /> from the park. The residents feel they are a • <br /> benefit to the park. <br /> 9. They feel that the path will cause problems that <br /> were not implied in the original purchase <br /> agreement. <br /> 10. They are concerned that the drainage would be <br /> impeded. There are problems with holes, <br /> washouts, and destruction of trees. If a <br /> path is constructed, it will shift from the <br /> north side to the south side with increased <br /> walkers, joggers, bikers, snowmobilers and <br /> skiers. <br /> 11. There is no access or egress so the yards will <br /> be used. How will that be solved? <br /> 12. Is there a possibility of the homeowners being <br /> co-insured with the City for liability of <br /> persons being injured on the path or going to or <br /> from the path? Mr. Rademacher stated that an <br /> elderly person tripped in a hole recently on the <br /> trail. <br /> • <br />
