CITY O~
Dear Sir:
I am writing in response to your letter regarding public interest of a public hearing
to discuss the issue of establishing a private association dock on Carver Beach for Carver
Beach residents. I was looking forward to this hearing and discussion of the topic. I was
surprised to hear there was so much opposition before any idea's were even presented. I
am sorry to hear that no such meeting will take place. I would however like to go on
record that as a resident of Lotus Trail I am open to the idea of discussing such options. I
believe the nature of the Carver Beach Park area with its large hill and trees that
something could be designed with minimal impact to the neighborhood and the park. I
am have not met or talked with Mr. Todd Frostad of 6728 Lotus Trail but I am glad that
he brought this issue up. I have always felt that the city would never allow such a thing
and it looks as though I may have been right. I am curious whether the cancellation of
this meeting had more to due with neighborhood opposition than the position of the Park
and Recreation board?
Cordially,
Brian J Timm

REQUEST FOR BOARD ACTION
Business Item: Consent
Item Number: 5E
Originating Source: Karen Bowen, Director
Requests from the Cities of Hopkins, Shorewood, Deephaven, Greenwood, Chanhassen.
Excelsior, Eden Prairie, Victoria, Tonka Bay, and Minnetonka to Support and Sponsor
Requested Winter Activities on Segments of the Southwest Regional LRT Trail
Recommended Action:
MOTION TO AUTHORIZE THE CITIES OF HOPKINS, SHOPEWOOD, DEEPHAVEN,
GREENWOOD, CHANHASSEN, EXCELSIOR, EDEN PRAIRIE, VICTORIA, TONKA BAY, AND
MINNETONKA TO CONDUCT REQUESTED 1998-99 WINTER ACTIVITIES ON SEGMENTS OF
THE SOUTHWEST HENNEPIN/LRT REGIONAL TRAIL CORRIDORS PURSUANT TO
MUNICIPAL BOUNDARIES, 1N ACCORDANCE WITH THE WINTER USE PERMIT AND
CONTINGENT UPON RECEIPT OF ALL REQUIRED MATERIALS.
Background:
On September 1, 1994, an Operational Plan for the Southwest Regional LRT Trail Corridors was
presented to the Board of Commissioners.
The Plan stipulates that "Requests for winter trail activities must be submitted in writing to Hermepin
Parks by the city proposing the activity. Approval may be granted through a special permit from
Hennepin Parks." The Plan specifies that signage and maintenance required for approved winter trail
uses are the responsibility of the proposing communities. It is also understood that enforcement will be
the responsibility of individual communities, as will any repair of trail surface damaged as a result of
winter activities and/or maintenance. In the spring of 1996, staff developed a Winter Use Permit form
to reflect the details of the winter use requirements on the Southwest Regional LRT Trail (Attachment
a_.).
The attached chart (Attachment B) illustrates the winter activities being requested by the ten communities
adjacent to the trail corridors.
Each city is required to provide insurance certificates naming Hennepin Parks as an ADDITIONAL
INSURED to cover activities associated with these special permits. Furthermore, the Park District
retains the right to revoke these permits at any time. Communities are also requested to provide
verification that their city councils have approved the requested activities. Those communities that have
not yet submitted all required materials have assured staffthat they will comply as soon as the necessary
documentation is available.

Pedestrian-Friendly Cities
Enhancing, quality of life for residents ranks h(~h on every city's list of priorities.
H/Twther in the metropolitan area or in ~,roater Mimwsota, cities are makin~ their communities
more friendly to pedestrians and realizin~ a number ~associated ben,ts.
'alkin,~ the most widely utilized form
of transportation in the world, bas
bec,omc increasingly di~cult in large
and small cities. The benefits ora
pedestrian-friendly ciw arc abundant.
By reducing the necessiW of the car
for all trips, goals related to sustain-
abiliu~ and environmental quali~ are
enhanced. The more people are on foot, the
greater the opportunities for social contact and
interaction, thus promoting a greater sense of
communiW. A pedestrian-friendly environment
helps maintain the vitality of the downtoxvn
area, a major objective of many cities. In
addition, fewer tra~c accidents involving
pedestrians occur. Finally, a ciW that is oriented
more towards pedestrians can reduce municipal
expenditures m the areas of road construction
and maintenance, police and ambulance sen'ice,
uninsured medical costs, and infrastruc-
ture.
A fundamental principle underscores
a pedestrian-friendly ciu': People will
choose to walk if the pathways are
safe, comfortable and enjoyable; if
distances between destinations are
deemed walkable; and, if destinations
are clearly linked by a network of side-
walks and pathways. With this in mind,
here arc seven recommendations to
assist cities in becoming more friendly
to pedestrians.
Reduce trq~c spee&. Nothing
discourages walking more than fast
moving trafllc. Faster traffic results in
a more dangerous and less enjoyabIe
walk. Lowering posted speed limits
are a good starting point, but alone
they arc usually insut}icicnt. Wide,
straight streets with uninten-upted
sightlines encour'a,,c,a higber~ speeds.
To slow down vehicles, cities can
B), Ix'cut Robertson
implement a number of tactics. By converting
driving lanes to parallel parking, cities can
provide a buffer between traffic and pedestrians.
Cities can also slow down traffic by planting
trees and other landscaping along the ro'~dside.
Other ways to reduce tra~c speeds include
encouraging buildings to be constructed closer
to the street rather than behind a parking lot;
altering the road su~ce approaching pedestrian
crossings; and, including more specdbumps and
speedtables in roadways.
~Iake intersections easier to cross. Whether
or not streets are easy to cross is a key ~ctor in
deciding to walk or to drive. Stop signs and
traf~c signals arc certainly helpful, although the
latter are usually aimed at moving ;mtomobiles,
not pedestrians, e~iciently. On fimr lane roads,
thc inclusion of curb extensions or center
medians narrows the distance to be negotiated,
Mid-block crosswalks are also benefi-
cial, but they must be clearly marked
(flashing lights, raised walkway) to
ensure they arc not ignored.
Add new or widen existing sidewalks.
People will seldom walk without
sidexvalks, even in low-traffic residential
areas. Yet sidewalks are few and ~r
between in most housing subdivisions
and commercial areas built during the
past few decades. Cities should require
that sidewalks be included in all new
development proposals. Furthermore,
where possible, sidewalks should be
retrofitted or widened in existing areas.
In higher density areas, such as down-
town or commercial strips, the recom-
mended sidewalk width is eight feet
while six foot widths should suffice
for lower density residential neighbor-
hoods. One final thought on sidewalks:
ordinances that require property owners
to keep sidewalks clear of snow, debris,
and low hanging branches are important tools
in developing pedestrian-friendly cities; they
should be enforced.
Furnish a dear pedestrian network. If people
have a clear network of sidewalks and pathways
between their homes and other destinations
such as doxvntoxvn, schools, parks, shopping,
recreation, governnlent offices and services,
they xvill choose to xvalk more often. Sidexvalks
cannot exist in isolation or go noxvhere, but
rather must be connected xvell. This is especially
true for the do~vntoxvn area that can benefit
by good pedestrian linkages to nearby neigh-
borhoods. Note~vorthy examples of enhanced
pedestrian connections can be found in Taylors
Falls, xvhere an underpass beneath a busy
highway links downtoxvn to the popular
bi-state park; and in Duluth, xvhere several
parks were built over Interstate 35 to alloxv
convenient pedestrian access to Lake Superior
from downtown and residential areas.
Provide pedestrian amenities. A number
of amenities can make the experience of
walking more interesting and enjoyable.
These amenities are especially important in
areas likely to attract higher pedestrian volumes
like downtown, schools, parks, hospitals, and
apartments. Benches or ledges give people a
place to rest, talk and people-xvatch, and should
be distributed widely. Attractive, human-scaIe
lighting helps provide a pleasant aesthetic and
a sense of securiu~. Trees, planters, hanging
flower baskets, city banners, and brick pave-
ment all make the pedestrian environment
more attractive. For example, the doxvn-
towns of Fergns Falls, 1)uluth, Little Falls,
and St. Cloud have effectively used a number
of these pedestrian amenities.
Amend city ordinances. Single use zoning
and lower densities often result in an nnffiendly
pedestrian environment. Amending the city
ordinance to permit cluster developments and
the close proximity of housing to other activi-
ties will encourage xvalking. Parking ratios
shonld be reduced to prevent the predominance
of large snrface parking lots, a most nnwelcome
and dangerous setting tbr pedestrians. Surface
parking lots also inhibit walking by sprcadiug
buildings farther apart. Where possible, parkiug
should be encouraged behind or to the side of
% fundamental principle
underscores a pedestrian-
friendly city: People will
choose to walk if the
pathways are safe,
c0mf0~able and enjoyable;
if distances beb~een
destinations are deamed
~.alkable; and, if
destinations are clearly
linked by a network of
sid?,va!ks an',]
structures to bring the buildings closer to the
street. Cities should consider adopting design
guidelines or a design review process to facili-
tate future development that is more geared
toxvard pedestrian needs.
Pay special attention to downtown. Cities
with do~vntowns are fortunate to possess a
ready-made pedestrian destination. To make
the most of this asset, cities should pay special
attention to the quality of the pedestrian
enviromnent on main street. A city that is
serious about implementing the above recom-
mendations should start doxw~toxwL
Moreover, several other doxvntown-specific
guidelines need to be heeded. Parking lots
and ramps should be located on the edges of
downtoxvn (i.e., behind main street buildings)
to not impede pedestrian movement. Pedestrian
only linkages should be provided between
parking lots and the main streets; Wadena
successfully achieved this with the use of an
infill pocket park. Large setbacks and blank
walled buildings should be avoided. Clearly
delineated mid-block crossings are also helpful.
Attractive building facades--ideally with
eye-catching window displays--should be
encouraged through design guidelines and/or
low-interest revolving loan funds.
Both rural and metropolitau municipalities
can enhance the qualitT of life for their residents
by applying some of these recommendations.
One overarching rcconnnendation is to incor
potato a strong pedestrian-oriented component
into the city's next comprehensive plan update.
This emphasis will help ensure that future
generations xvill enjoy the benefits oflMng
in a more sustainable and pcdestriau-fi'iendly
city. ~'
