STAFF RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff has reviewed this request and does not recommend installing a walking path from Trillium to Silver Point <br />Park. This recommendation is due to the following considerations: <br />• Entry to Trillium Park at 2832 Hwy 88 would require an easement on private property and Hennepin <br />County Right-Of-Way <br />• Existing topographic conditions in the park make a pedestrian entry point difficult <br />• There would be no barrier between pedestrians and the high-speed traffic on Hwy 88 <br />• A new entry gate may make the frontage road a desirable parking area for park users, introducing <br />parking issues for residents <br />• There is existing sidewalk connection between Trillium and Silver Point Parks via Silver Lake Road <br /> <br />NEXT STEPS <br />• If the Commission consensus is to follow staff’s recommendation, no further action is needed <br />• If the Commission consensus is there is a need for the walking path, a recommendation from the <br />Commission to the City Council in the form of a motion is needed <br />
