28 <br />Samantha <br />The proposed zoning around Long Lake is reasonable and appropriate. It is <br />Comment noted, no change <br />Muldoon <br />consistent with past zoning guidelines, and will maintain the existing character <br />of the neighborhood, while allowing for a reasonable level of development. It <br />will allow much of the nutrient rich water run-off (that can lead to dangerous <br />algae blooms) to be re -absorbed into the land, where it can be filtered by <br />wetlands and native plants prior to reaching the Lake. It will also provide <br />valuable natural corridors to allow the movement of wildlife in our <br />neighborhoods - a critical need for our fellow animals and birds and those of us <br />that enjoy them. It provides natural vistas and sweeping views of <br />nature/Lakeshore for residents, and also creates a sense of cohesion and <br />consistency in the neighborhoods surrounding the lake and wetlands. I am <br />strongly in favor of maintaining this Zoning of LR -1A. <br />29 <br />Samantha <br />I would also like to commend the Committee for planning for additional trail and <br />A trail will be considered as part of the Wayzata Blvd turn back project. <br />Muldoon <br />natural walkways (for example, East Long Lake Road), and connecting new <br />trails when possible to older, traditional trails (Loose Line, Dakota Trail). I <br />would urge the city to consider additional trails around the school areas, as <br />parents and kids would use those walkways for exercise frequently, and it <br />would be great to connect (for example) the school areas to the Lurton Park <br />Dog Park via a trail, or the Willow view neighborhood to the school campus via <br />a trail. <br />Z:\COMPREHENSIVE PLANS\Comf aRka 4MS0-2040\Comp Plan Comments\Appendix Comp plan comments and responses <br />
