To my dismay, I came across a Public <br />notice that indicates a discussion is to be held regarding possibly closing this access route. This route <br />is used by us residents living in the north east portion of Orono to access many areas including the <br />Summit Park Beach. Not only do we use this for daily commuting, but also as a bike route around the <br />lake. This is not a low use road, I consistently see traffic on it and most of it is local residents. <br />While I appreciate the great efforts that are being made to update our roadways in Orono after <br />years of neglect and underfunding, I do not believe that the answer to the road issue is to <br />decommission existing roadways. It is a short-term fix that will create traffic issues in the long run. <br />If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. <br />Mark Allen <br />425 Hunter Pass <br />Orono, MN 55391 <br />952-388-3869 cell <br />mark(@allenitc.com <br />
