MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br />MEETING HELD ON APRIL 21, 1997 <br />• <br />(# 14 - #2209 Spring Hill Golf Club - Continued) <br />(IV - C) Spring Hill Road Condition - Gaffron reported the City Engineer has indicated <br />that the condition of Spring Hill Road and East Long Lake Road warrant more than <br />normal maintenance. He recommends Spring Hill Road be overlayed at the expense of the <br />Spring Hill Golf Club. Staff recommends the overlay. Commissioners agreed 6/0 to the <br />Staff recommendation. <br />(IV -D) Intersection Upgrades - Gaffron reported the City Engineer has indicated that <br />Hennepin County should determine whether intersection upgrades, including turn lanes, <br />are needed at the 6 /Tamarack and 6/Hunter intersections as a result of this development. <br />If so, the Engineer recommends those upgrades be assessed to the development. Staff is <br />meeting with Hennepin County to review this issue. <br />Gappa indicated a bypass lane was recommended by the County for 6 /Spring Hill Road. <br />He is in favor of a turn lane at 6 /Tamarack. <br />Staff agreed with the recommendation made by the County. Council should determine <br />who will pay for the turn lanes as a policy issue. Commissioners agreed 6/0 with Staff <br />recommendation. <br />• (IV -E) Trail System - Gaffron indicated no specific trail design has been created for <br />Tamarack or Spring Hill Road. <br />Lindquist suggested the Park Commission make this determination. <br />Park Commission Vice Chair Susan Wilson reported the Commission is interested in <br />pursuing a trail to connect Wood Rill and Wolsfeld Woods. She indicated the applicant is <br />not interested in the trail going through the golf course but along the perimeter only. <br />Wilson said she is meeting with representatives of Medina next week regarding the issue <br />for a walking trail. She noted a bike trail is planned for Spring Hill Road and could be <br />used as a connector to a walking trail. <br />Wilson commented on two properties that may be subdivided in the future on the west <br />side of Tamarack resulting in Park Dedication fees. She noted an option to make plans <br />and wait until the property is developed or construct a trail when the road work is done. <br />She said she would meet with Staff regarding the issue. Wilson noted the limitations to <br />the amount in the Park Dedication Fund. <br />Schroeder inquired how Tamarack would be connected with Spring Hill Road. Wilson <br />said she envisioned this to occur across CoRd 6. He was informed that the golf cart <br />tunnel would not be used. Wilson noted there is a pattern of use as a walking trail on the <br />• properly now. <br />25 <br />
