He stated <br />he does not want to be a feeder street for all the <br />traffic ont County Road J, and recommended a service <br />road be pla ed to serve as a feeder. <br />Jerry Linke 2319 Knollwood Drive, stated he had <br />attended me tings in mid to late '70s and reviewed <br />the history of what had transpired for the planned <br />alignment f~om that time. He noted MnDOT is planning <br />to raise th roadway also. <br />Russell Pah reviewed the history of the project <br />also and th various plans that have been presented <br />and how the have changed.

She noted that even living on a dead end street <br />presents problems with how people drive, and signs <br />do not always work, and people need to develop a <br />sense of respect for one another. <br />Jim Jorsen, of Knollwood Drive, stated he has lived <br />. there since 1976 and did not know what was planned <br />until this past week,and he feels it is not too late <br />to do something, and they do not need to be slaves <br />to technology, nor do they need all that traffic <br />on their street. <br />
