Please? Anonymous <br />via Website <br />Exiting plan/ concept is to maintain any healthy trees and vegetation and add additional trees and <br />native vegetation to the area (ATE) <br />15 Oct 18 Preliminary <br />Design concept, <br />5OCT18 <br />I appreciate the conversion to park land. I would like to see an impermeable trial <br />surface rather than asphalt. Perhaps something like the Luce line. I would like to see <br />protection of the shoreline from people and animals. Signs indication that people are <br />only allowed on the trail and special water access points. The hammocks seem like a <br />cute idea but I have some concern about sanitation and appropriate use. Comfortable <br />benches might be a better option I would like to see the trail restricted to non- <br />motorized vehicles. <br />Anonymous <br />via Website <br />Trail is on a regional route for TRPD and HC. Regional trail standard is 10ft wide paved. (ATE) <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Existing plan is to restrict the trail to non-motorized vehicles. Add appropriate signage and barricades <br />(ATE) <br />23 Oct 18 Preliminary <br />Design concept, <br />5OCT18 <br />Here are some quick feedback points - <br />• Because it’s such a unique opportunity to convert an orono/Long Lake lake-side <br />road to a trail, be really vigilant about keeping the trail as natural and low-key as <br />possible. <br />• Trail and the trail heads should reflect natural treasure of Woodrill and the lake and <br />remain very low-profile, i.e.. this isn’t a typical Luce Line or Dakota Trail section; <br />East Long Lake Road is an incredibly short stretch of rare lakeside and SNA <br />woodlands - very different from larger commuter,etc. trails. <br />• No parking slots on Spring Hill Road side - only at Summit, where parking is <br />ample. <br />• Avoid having the Spring Hill “information kiosk” become out-of-scale, i.e. over- <br />built relative to the special/rare quietness that East Long Lake and Woodrill <br />offer: Don’t build an information kiosk or a “bike facility” at the “North Trailhead” <br />location-> consolidate those services at Summit Park, only. Kiosk and bike services <br />will be targets for vandals…keep it simple and only offer those on the south <br />side/summit. <br />• Consider how you will prevent motorcycles and motor bikes from getting through <br />the barriers…. in past several times Ive been running on East Long Lake Rd, a <br />motorcycle came thur and then just yesterday a motorbike rode thru…..is there a <br />width or surface that would do that trick? <br />Caroline <br />Fullerton <br />(1135 Spring <br />Hill Road) <br />Trail is on a regional route for TRPD and HC. Regional trail standard is 10ft wide paved. (ATE) <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />City is currently coordinating with MNDNR for trail heads / access points to the SNA. (ATE) <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />The plan current envision 1-2 spots with in the exiting foot print to provide parking without it spilling <br />onto Spring Hill Road. Should parking along the road become an issue the city could consider <br />imposing parking restrictions along the roadway.
