P1r. Bob Qishop, 5�17 Altura °oad, stated that 17e has a nroblem �aith the nicket fence that is un at the nresent i,ir�e in that the sno4� in t!,e t�intertine nresents a oroulem because there �s no border and the 3' to �' of snoNJ �oes into the drivevtav.

F!n futher mentioned th�t he had spoken to REGLLAR COUNCIL MEETING OF NOVEMBER 15, 1976 PAGE 2 Mr. Paul Brown on several occasions reqarding a fence beinn put �n and a lot of promises were made, but no fence. P1r. Bishop stated that he vras vnll m� to split half the cost with the Ctty and would ltke to have a fence put uo from the fence that he has in the backyard towards the street, and he was hopinq the City Council would approve such a fence in order to preserve the beauty of the park Counctlman Fitzpatrick stated that he would be in favor of erectina a fence and nav �half the cost and as far as maintenance aoes, P1r. 6tshon has a❑reed to assume the maintenance. He further pointed out that the only ob,7ection of the Park Denartment unth this request is that they do not want to mainta�n a redvaood fence Councilman Fitzpatrick also stated that one of his chief reasons for sunoortinn the reauest was that Mr Bishop has been in nossession of a letter for ouite some time believin� that he has had the option for the past two or three years Councilman Fitzpatrick, therefore, believed the Counc�l would be ,7ustified tn qranttnn the request for the aforementioned reasons Councilman Starwalt stated that although he realtzes this is a problem, it is a matter of goinq beyond what the City has done for different homeovmers under sim�lar c�rcumszances and the City's policy has been to st�ck with the chain link fence The cha�n link fence being more durable and earier to mainta�n, he believed this to be a pretty good compromise Councilman Fitzpatrick's recollection was that bids were tal:en on three optional fences so there certainly was someth�nn in the works, however he was not sure why it H�as held up for so long. Mayor Nee asked if there would be a problem with the fence betng bu�lt on P1r 6ishop's property and Mr Uirg�l Herrick, Ctty Attorney, responded that he d�d not th�nk so as long as the Council makes a finding that the fence is being built for the benefit of the Park Counctlman Hamerm k asked P1r Bishop to clarify what he meant by maintaining the fence Mr. Bishop responded that if a wood slat came out, there Niould be no problem in putting � another slat in. Counc�lman Starwalt questioned the action(s), if any, by the Pai°I: Goard regarding the matter and Mr. Nasim Qureshi, City Planager, stated that the Parl: Doard was aqa�nst �t Councilman Starwalt then stated that they apparently never reacted to the letter nor the securing of bids. Councilman Fitzpatrick stated that it was his impress on that they forwarded it to the Council for some action Councilman Hamernik raised the question of should f1r 6ishop sell his home, what nos�tion does that 1eave the City in. P1r. Bishop responded that he suspects his home �s worth anywhere from $n5,000 to $53,00, and one would assume that anyone who could quaiify for a loan to buy his home would have some pride in mainta�nrna such a home Mr. Nerrick stated that he believed it would be looked at as 7ust another private appurtenance with a new home. However, you would have to rely on the new owners to maintain it within a reasonable fashion. 610TION by Counc�lman Fitzpatric;< to annrove the request and erect the fence and the City pay half the cost for such fence Seconded by Councilwoman Kukowski.

Mr Sobiech stated that this is a request by the nronerty owner in an industrially zoned property at the corner of 4"�rd and P1ain for a variance on the lot coveraae as it presently ex�sts. He further oointed out that the owner proposes to make an additiun to their oresent facility which would be nenerally to the west of the butldina and the rear of the buildinq. The pronosed addi*ion would be constructed on an existrna retaininn wall Previously, there was a sloned portion of landsca�inq and basically this was to ensure that the foundation in this oart of the 6uildina � REGULAR COUNCIL P9EETING OF PIOVEMBER 15, 1976 , ,, PAGE 4 would not freeze. P1r_ Sobtech also noted that the basic 6uildinn covers anproximately 50 - 51 % and with the additional proposal, they would be in the neiqhborhood of about 55 - 56% lot coveraqe. The Appeals Commission did, however, recommend approval. He also pointed out that the construction of the initial structure was tn the early fifties prior to the requirements that presentlV exist and he thought perhaps some additional stipulations with the 6uildinn permit could be made in that they would work with the Staff to acquire a,7oint parkina aoreement wrth Burlington , Narthern There is a concentrated narkinq problem �n the area; however, to the south there is a lot that �s hasically empty all of the time Counctlman Fitzpatrick questioned the reasons for the nreativ increased on-street parkina and Mr. Arvid R. Hansen, n30D P1ain Street N E., resnonded it was due to the fact that there are all kinds of salesmen cominn and aoinn to Burlinnton Northern Mr. Hansen proceeded to mention that the averaae call of a salesman is 15 minutes and Burlrngton Northern probably aet 100 salesmen, and they �et approximately 1-0 a day.

Councilman Starwalt stated that he had a pronosal for modification and it takes into consideration v�ewpoints of some of the people reqarding the sam tar�� sewer He further stated that he would ltke to include the enaineerina all the way to the end, including the possibility of a cul-de-sac. Mr Sobiech stated that -if ddring the Counctl's travels throu�h the neiqhborhood, there are any changes, they cai� add them back in. However, the resolution would order the final plans and specificattons for this They can be nrepared and they can be deleted at a later time. They could work with the ad�acent property owners on the sanitary sewer problem. As it now exists, however, it ts qoinn to be very expenstve Mr Sobiech stated that he believed it would 6e okay at this ttme to order the imorovement and nothing would be lost if it was deleted at the next resolution �Counctlman Starwalt stated that although he realized the next hearinn would not be a public hearing, he questioned whether there could be a letter notification from the C�ty to the affected property owners so that they are made aware of the meetinq Mr. Qureshi stated that it may be more appropriate if the Administration contact these people personally and give them all of the 6ackqround rnformat�on If they have a change, they can contact one of the counctlmembers MOTION by Councilman Starwalt to add north on 68th to Channel Road through the cul-de-sac Councilwoman Kukowski stated that she vras goinn to second it �ust so they can have the plans drawn up, rev�ew them, and be in contact with those concerned before a final move is made on the matter She later u�ithdrew her second and Mayor Nee stated that the motion failed for lack of a second. C�' . REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF NOVEP1BER 15, 1976 PAGE 5 P�ayor Nee asked about the sewer problem Mr Sobiech stated that the problem, if it is a problem, is that the elevation of the lateral in the street is above two to three homes The people who have the sevaer comina in the mtddle wall of the basement obv�ously feel it is a problem, however, when it was initially desinned and constructed, a san�tary sewer pro�ect must take into account the economics tnvolved. If the santtary sewer is lowered another n or 5' from the very top of the pro�ect, the entire lateral system would have to be lowered which can amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars. In summary, P9r Sobiech stated what could be done there would be a lift station con- structed by the City with the force main out to the lateral in the street from the lift station,�and the new sa m tary services would be run back to serve the nearest oroperties. He further stated that when the City qets involved with an improvement of this nature, it is assessed against the properties and all they ufould be involved in from the City's standpoint is the construction of the lift stat�on, the force main from the lift station to the lateral and perhaps the stubs for the services out of the lift station. Therefore, what has to be determined is whether or not the property owners want to get involved in the kind of er.pense of a lift station. The Ctty would maintain the ltft station and the force main The other alternative would be e�ector pumps which are considerably cheaper and more or less have the same affect. There are several throughout the C�ty that work very well. He further pointed out that they would have to ao into the tndividual homes and see exactly what �s not 6erng used Mayor Nee then asked Mr. Sobiech about Channel Road, the part that �oes east and west, whether or not there �s a problem with the sewer and can it be fixed. P�r. So6iech responded that the problem is roots and several pieces of piae which have settled. They would have to go down and relay those pieces of pipe However, the sewer is rather, deep there and in order to �aintain that section, they would remove the anpro�riate sections to make the repair. He further stated that what they plan to do is to restore the area after the relayinn of the sanitar�r sewer lateral to the improved section There has been some work done on that sewer line and what has been done is of a temporary nature. Councilman Hamernik stated that that would be an im�rov�ment from 68th Avenue to � P1ississippi Street on Channel Road P1a�or Pdee stated that was correct. Mayor Nee then proceeded to �o on to Lucia Lane Councilman Starwalt stated that he had no amendments with reqard to Lucia Lane. Mr Dennis Schneider stated that he had a question on Luc�a Lane. He commented that the im�rovement stops �ust in front of the a�artments and after talkina to P1r Sobiech this date, the concrete curbinn is not in by the apartments, and anparently thts was because of the problems of the drainane �roblem which have to be resolved once the area is developed ,7ust to the east f�r. Schneider believed that there is a potential for sewer assessment norna bacl; down Lucia Lane if the tmprovement comes in. Additionally, there is a concern from so�e of the residents he sooke with reaardrnq the traffic floaa. h1r. Schneider's suqnest�on was that when this comes back to the City Council for final a�proval, hooefully the traffic flow study will be done by then and �f there are modif�cations at that time, that they be improved or worl<ed on so that the drainaqe problems can be answered at that ooint tn time and the traffic problems addressed Mayour Nee thanked P�r Schneider and then proceeded to ao on to 66th Avenue--Central Avenue to Rice Creek Elementary School He further added that 'rhe City Council had received a petition on this P1r L David h�ech, 1315 66th Avenue N.E stated that a noll has been taken since the last meeting of the residents of the block to see how mam/ Urere in favor and how many were o�posed (which petition he acknomrledaed vaas before the Counctl tom aht). He � further stated that from the netttion, it showed about a five to one ratio of those opposed to those in favor The last three s�nnatures are from the �eople who res�de near the corner on 66th and Central and althouah he did not know if they should be included in the poll or not, they wanted to siqn the petition aaainst the pro,7ect. However, there are twelve sinnatures from the 1300 blocl: on 66th tnat are opposed and three in favor The twelve sinnatures anainst include two si�n�tures that are the same but people who own two different houses on the block �1r. flech further stated that he and members of the blocl< do not consider their street substandard and they do not want the �mprovements. Also, the nerson who lives on ihe south corner of 66th Avenue is aninst the improvement; however, he d�ri not si�n the poll r . '�_ REGUL'ARCOUNCIL MEETING OF NOVEMBER 15, 1976 PAGE 6 Councilman Hamer m k stated that he ,7ust wanted to pornt out that althounh he �s tn favor of deletinq 66th Avenue, the petitioners should understand that this will be cominq up aqain next year and the information as far as ma�ntenance assessments, will also be availa6le and they will have to consider this anain in the street improvement program. Councilman Starwalt stated that it was his renret that most of the people on the list �did not come to the hearing They did not have a chance to hear the lon� ran�ae pro6lems and the possible solutions at this point 'iundreds of peo�le over the vears have en,7oyed the street imorovements oro�rams that have made the City of Fridley an overall better place to live Councilman Starwalt asked Mlr. Charles E Carlson, 1399 66th Avenue N E, who is in favor of the improvement, if he cared to speak on the sub,7ect. Mr Carlson stated that he and his neighbor across the street have been in favor of a new street with curbs and gutters from the very beqinninq. P1r Carlson fur+her stated that re�ardina the cul-de-sac, he believed tt should be put on the school property. He stated that when he bought the property, there was an easement in the L�eed that said there was the riqht to put the street to the west stde of the yard which affected h�s lot He had his attorney at the time look into this and he contact Gertrude Skinner with the Anoka County Regtster of Deeds and this was cleared up The easement was not on his property but he assumed that it was probably to the east of htm which would put it on the school property This, in essence, is where the street would no i` it would run north and south �f there was a street that ran north and south He further nointed out that with this easement of 50', the cul-de-sac could 6e nut on that 50' because the easement is there and in effect until 193n which at that time, can be renevfed for another ten years--unless the pecple affected wanted to take care of it and dele�e it at that time. Therefore, it was Mr Carlson's contention that if there is to be a cul-de-sac at the end of the 61ock, it should be on the school nroperty because of this easement Mr. Carlson continued that if the cul-de-sac is put on his �ronerty or his neinhbors �across the street, the hydrant would have to 6e moved which is an added expense, the fence that the school has erected alonn the edne of the school ��ard and their ��ards, would have to be moved if �he cul-de-sac is put where Mr. Carlson'sunnests, neither of these would have to be meved and he does not see why aood i�oney should be spent tearin� things down that they don't have. Mr. Qureshi stated that if the City Council of the cul-de-sac would have to be resolved he doesn't know what they desire. order the improvement, certainly the aroblem The school has not been apnroached so P10TI�Pd by Councilwoman Kukowski to amend the resolution deletina 66th Avenue Seconded by Councilman Hamernik.

As far as the patchwork qoes on the street, there has been no patch that would stand up as a untt of use.

P1r �ohn Carland, 6�16 Dellwood Drive, siated that the netition was brou�ht around between bJednesday and Thursday. Mayor Nee stated that he would qo alonn to delete at this time. However, there were a number of people who are concerned as to whether or not the sewer would be fixed and �f the improvement noes throuoh, �t �rill be fixed. Fle also stated that he shared Cauncilman Starwalt's v�ew--that it is a mistake. Mayor Nee then moved on to Pierce Street- 63rd Avenue to P1ississippi Street. He asked tf there was any attempt at present to alleviate the �uestion renarding the Ski Sh�p and f1r Sobtech responded, not at the moment. Hovrever, they have in the past hae� discussions reaard�nq landscaninn and they do not anticipate havina any problems with them.

Ma,yor P!ee then referred to Irorton Street - Huno Street to Ashton Avenue P1r. Sobiech stated that there vtas a concern here reqardin�a the industrial traffic ' and for the trees on that roadwaV and an alternative was attempted to perhaps solve these problems. However, certain thinas have to be kept in mind Vtherein access has to be provided certain vacant properties on the southwest corner of Ashton, northwest and nnr�heast Mr. Sobiech stated that he felt that this vaould be a conttnuation of thA existina section betvreen the existina streets He further pointed out that what has now been suqgested ts first of all, increase the priorization of stopping *he industrial traffic and still nrovide access to the ad,7acent nrooerties. A one-way street has been �roposed which would allow traffic to the east on Ironton and this would be a favorable position to save the trees blith this particular proposal, there is no additional rinht-of-way that is required. Councilman Fitzpatricl< then questioned how far the one-way would no and P1r. Sobiech res�onded w�th a one-way between Huno and Ashton in an easterly direction. This would also provide access for emerqency vehicles. It also provides a continuous situation for notential maintenance i.e , street sv�eenrna, plowrna, etc P1r. Sobtech further stated that there were truck traffic siqns posted alonn the roadway and the enforcement of same would have to be emohasized. Flnother nroposal is a cul-de-sac at Ashton and at Hu4o. There is, however, a need to acouire some riqht-of-way to the southeast corner of Ironton and Huao At this point in time, it would be the recommendation of the Staff to apProve the one-wav s�tuation with a�osittve enforcement against industrial traffic Councilman Fitznatrick stated that althou�h the nublic heartnn �s closed, there were people nresent to dtscuss the sub7ect. � f�s.

Sorsoleil stated that a state aid street does not benef�t her, it benefits the City f1r. Sobiech stated that �t beneftts in that the street in front of her roadway is tmproved to meet certain state standards and the assessments over and above the normal streets are picked un bv siate aid funds Final assessment rolls for the �ro,7ect would indicate costs assessed for actual benef�t received. P�ayor Nee, at this point, stated that the status of the resolution was to delete � 66th and �ellwood. Counc�lman Hamerm k stated that he had conversations with peonle earlier reoard�nn Channel Road and was wonderin� if anyone had not exnressed themselves Mr. Roy Boone, 656� Channel Road, auestioned whether there ��iere monies set aside for Channel Road. P4r. Qureshi stated that there were none, however, there r�i�ht be For 66th Avenue and there is a road in between the plat Mr. Boone stated that the necnle who built thetr home told them the opnosite, however, he had no documentation to suoport this f�r Boone also raised the point about the parkinn nro6lem on Channel Road and if some off-street parkina could be provtded in the street imnrovement nronram P1r Sobiech then stated that without havinn made a deta�led investination, the ansimer �s yes--the oossibiiity does exist tn the area of the aoartment bu�ldinns. A setback of the curbinq could be orov�ded to allow par!<tnn off the traveled nortion of the road. Mr. Boone summed un the d�scussion by statina �f anythin� could 6e done at any t�me to pursuade the renters to use the oarkrn� that �s �rovided for the off-street, the pro6lem would not exist A vtsitor stated that at the north end of Channel Road there are nutte a number of people not in favor of the street imorovement nronram He commented that wrth inflation continuinn, we must stop soendinn P1avor Plee stated that it aoes on taxes for collection and it is the same if the school board made a dec�sion to raise the taxes. �Councilman Staru�alt stated that the cost of yearly hinh maintenances comes out of every6odies pocket He further nointed out that wit�i a nevi street of a nrooer design--a twenty to thirty year street--the averaae maintenance would be much less per year than what is involved in the present street. Mr John Urista, 6599 Channel Road, stated that he would lil:e the nark�nn situation at the apartments to be looked �nto and r^avbe try to imnrove the nroperty, Playor Plee stated that they will do their best, ho�vever, there were no nuarantees Mr. Georne Maas, 6880 Channel P.oad, stated tf�at he did no all the way up to GGth and the ma�ori�y of the peonle were onoosed to nuct�nn in curbs hut were not onnosed to fixinn the street. He believed that there should be r�ore �nnut by the neonie in the particular areas of what they reallv do m�ant Some do not want curbs, some do not want the cu,l-de-sac, some do not uiant the street fixed, and soi�e do not even care However, most of the �eople want the sewer fixed before they do an��th�na G v' �',r REGULAR COUP�CIL PIEETIfJG OF NOVEP1BER 15, 1�76 PAGE 9 f1ayor Nee stated the reason for outtina in curbinn is it washes and unravels on the edqes if they don't. The mat that they put down will last five vears In e�aht years or so, it starts to aet undercut and that is why they do not want to make an investment of the res�dents' money in a ptece of construct�on that is not noin� to last. P1ayor Nee further stated that if r1r f1aas would tell the residents that the sewer will be fixed before an,ythinn else and the curbin� is there to protect their investment and thP mat, hopefully theY w�ll be more understandinc� of the situation. Mr. P4aas resnonded that there was a oossibilitv that this could be done; however, he was ooposed and d�d not th�nk he could nush an o�posite �oint of view than what he maintains. f1r Urista, f599 Channel P,oaci, stated that he and others did take a petition up for the street improvement and the curbs.

Mr. Sobtech stated that this was correct CONSIDERATION OF COPITINUING WITH STREET IP9PROVEMENT PROJECT ST. 1975-3 (EAST RIVER onnn . Mr. Sobiech stated that this was before the Counctl approximately th�rty days ago, at which time i� was �nd�cated that the City Council should have a thirty day moratorium on the continuation of this pro�ect to further study the tnput be�n� provided by the Pro,7ect Committee and the Frid1ey Environmental (luality Commission It was noted at that meeting that the �mprovement aro�ect calls for the improvement on East River,-Road from Mississippi stree� to the south. P1r Sobiech further stated that there was some concern expressed by residents throunh the Pro,7ect Committee that perhaps Staff did not want to become tnvolved in the pro,7ect or become involved to the extent that the plans were avatlable l�lrth the moratorium, it was the understandina that they should get toqether with the Pro,7ect Committee renresentatives and try to determtne what the next step should be. Mr Sobiech stated that they did qet to�ether with the Pro,7ect Committee and some of the concerns they had were discussed First of all, there was a discrepancy reqardinq traffic counts After checkina with traffic consultants, it was discovered that inappropriate data was used and the 9,000 fiqure was incorrect They have since up-dated �their records and they are, in effect, in excess of the 9,000 fiaure Mr Sobiech stated to further qet an idea, if the traffic counts and nro,7ections were accurate, a lot of data was received from the State of Pltnnesota P1aps were received, indicatinn the various trafftc counts prenared by them. In 1974, theV projected aoproximately 13,OOD vehicles south of Miss�ssippi Street and approximately 11,000 vehicles north of Misstssippi Street and East River Road. In order to verify this, Mr. Sobiech stated that they took some actual counts themselves and the counts matched with what the pro,7ections were from the State of Mtnnesota, and he �s very confident that the counts that they are using and are bein� pro,7ected are "tn the ballpark" �; REGULAR COUNCIL P1EETING OF PdOVEM6ER 15, 1976 PAGE 11 At this po�nt �n time, P1r Sobiech stated that the 4,000 fiqure is inaccurate. He also pointed out that assuminq the fiaure was correct, how many lanes of traffic would be required to handle that volume? After checkrna wiYh the M�nnesota Hiqhway �epart- ment, various district state aid ennineers, FAU oeople, etc , they received ranaes of a cut-off from a two to a four lane h�ghway from 5,000 all the way up to 8 to 9,D00. After talking to the FAU people who stressed the safety an�le, they were qoing to insure four lanes of traffic if traffic �s in excess of 5,000 Another item discussed was the time schedule for the FAU fundinq program 4•lith federal fundinn, there are certain procedures that have to be followed to insure that everythinq �s �n proper order i e, certain opportuniiies for public hearings must be provided, etc. P1r Sobiech stated that at this time, delayinq the pro,7ect would noc move it alona to insure the federal participatton. From the meeting, all the City and Pro�ect Committee were tryinq to qet at was to be as honest with each other as possible and provide whatever information was available. f1r. Sobiech further stated that after the meetinq, it was recommended that they were to proceed mn th the FAU funding requ�rements w�th proper notice beinq qiven to the affected parties. Mr Mike Paripovich, 8200 East River Road, proceeded to thank the f9avor and the City Council for the moratorium stattnh �t was very useful He further stated that new data has been received since the last discusston. A report a�as received from the Mtnnesota Pollution Control Aaency which was conducted studying the noise level on the road He also commented that he had cop�es for the Council. He stated that what was be�ng discussed here was relat�ve to wideninn the road 35 to �40'; however, it will not increase the number of lanes. The second comment he had anticipated would be that they are already comnlyina to get the speed limit loHrered However, there ts no guarantee that they are aoina to ❑et the speed l�mit lowered. Another point Mr Paripovich made was that in dealin� with the FAU funds, this must be done very carefully He also commented that it was his opim on that the City Staff were truly concerned with this pro,7ect an�i had the tnterest of the people at heart P1r Paripovich staCed that if the pro�ect is to proceed in any way, shape or form, they must have detailed dra�vinns. P1r Sobiech stated that at this time he believed that they should oroceed throuqh the process �4r Parinovich stated that he believes the Staff should ao ahead with the FFlU procedure Fiowever, he wanted to reserve the rinht to come back if the plan is an obvious failure Mayor Nee asked f�1r. Sobiech �f this process would be for the Council to express to the County their desire to be tncluded in a plan for application for federal funds. P�lr. Sobiech stated that he thouqht so and at this time, corres�ondence should be d�rected to the County �ndicatina that there is a concern for this pro�ect, urqe them to proceed with the federal fundinn procedure and to tnsure that pro�er public hearinqs are held regardino the imorovement. Mr. P�rinovich stated that he had spoken to people not only in the East River Road area but from other parts of Fridley and they definitel,y anprove blockinq the plans. Counc�lman Fiizpatrick stated that he heard some concern, in fact a qood deal, regarding the safety issue P1r Par�povich stated that there was a deftnite concern for safety. He further vaent on to say if the s�eed is reduced, there is no need for channelization because you do not have the roarinn traffic. Councilman F�tzpatrick asked P1r. Sobiech what the cnances were for havinq the speed reduczd and Mr. Sobiech stated that it wasverV>very difficult. He nointed out that when th�y correspond to Anoka Count�r on the resolution, they would request that they notify the City vrhen the test was noinn to be nlanned and they would encouraqe very strict enforcement Mayor Pdee questioned whether the�� consider the noise level. Councilman Fitzpatrick stated that as far as continuinq puttinq in the tmprovement, it seemed to him they would have to consider the noise level P�r.

Mr �ureshi further stated that if they proceed for FAU funding, there is a definite requtrement for opportunity for a public hear�ng The publ�c hear�nn is a requtrement of FAU, and no one can bypass that requirement. He also pointed out that there was no question that East River Road is ten times more danaerous than any other road tn the City. P9r Qureshi stated that the Crty and the County have basically the same tnterests and he believed that there needs to be some burden shared by the County. He stated that they will do everythinq poss�ble to keep pressinp hard on the �governmental authorities to lower the speed. A71 the pertinent documentatton will be supplied. Mr Clureshi stated to P�r Paripovich that maybe heshould make his point known to them and that perhaps the City needs some help from people like h�m. P4r Paripovich responded that they will certainly work with the County. Counctlman Starwalt stated that he certainly admired Mr Paripovich's thorouqhness and asked Mr. Paripov�ch if he understood that in Councilman Starwalt's opinion, he was worktnq as a special interest. He proceeded to ask ^1r. Paripovich �f perhaps instead of workinn in �ust one area, he would expand his scooe to other areas of the City Mr. Paripov�ch stated that they were set up as a Pro�ect Committee to study East River Road, hom�ever, at the next Environmental Comm�ssion meetinq he would address th�s. Mayor Nee stated that as he could recall from seeinn some minutes, there was discussion of some designation of East Rtver Road as a oarkway. P1r. Par�povich stated that there was a motton that was unanimously passed that stated that East River Road should be considered a parkway Councilman F�tzpatrick stated that the basic proposal came to the Environmental Commission from the East River Road subcommittee. The parkway tdea was a motion in the Environmental Commission and it came before the Council �n two parts. The subcommittee's proposal was one part and that was another Mayor Nee questioned if the County should be asked to build a four lane road and a parkway Mr. Paripov�ch stated that he would rather have the parkway �dea and that it would be a beautiful thing. He believed that the County could net tonether some plans � to enable him and others to see what they are talkinq about. Mr Herrtck stated that first of all, nothing can be done without the concurrence of the County. It is not goinn to be transfierred to a city parkway without the�r approval. Secondly, he asked what was the defi m tion of a parkway--are we assumrna that a parkway is a tt��o lane road However, if it is not a two lane road and if it is a four lane road, then he was not sure r,hat this was not a matter of semant�cs Mayor Nee stated that he could see considerable ootential for the County Staff to modify their plan in such a way that makes it more attractive;but to ask them to abandon their road as it goes throuqh the City, he could not see P1r.
