r <br />Navarre Housing Study <br />Households were asked if they use Navarre Park. The majority of respondents do not. <br />There are several possible reasons why this is so. The survey did not ask respondents <br />why they do not use the park because the purpose of the study was to focus on housing <br />issues. <br />Table 1.25 <br />The Most Important Improvem ents That Should be Made <br />Most Important Improvement That Should <br />Be Made Areal Area II Area III Area IV Total <br />Revamping of Dilapidated Houses <br />Traffic (noise, speeds, volume, etc.) <br />Improve Streets <br />Improve Street Lighting <br />Yard Cleanup <br />Animal Control (loose, barking, etc.) <br />Improve Power Lines <br />Install Sidewalks/Trails <br />Restricting On Street Parking <br />Control Lord Fletcher’s Externalities <br />Better Snow Removal <br />Overhaul Navane Park <br />Safe Crosswalk <br />City Purchase Railroad/Convert to Street <br />Lower Taxes <br />No More Biker/Jogging Events <br />Stop Sewer Flow Into Lake Minnetonka <br />Close Crystal Bay Road to Through Traffic <br />Allow Expansion of Houses On Lake <br />Bring Income Levels Together <br />Stop Dumping in/by Wetlands and Railroad <br />6 7 2 8 23 <br />10 2 n/a 6 18 <br />2 9 n/a 5 16 <br />2 1 1 9 13 <br />n/a 3 3 7 13 <br />1 1 n/a 2 4 <br />1 2 n/a n/a 3 <br />n/a 1 n/a 1 2 <br />1 n/a n/a 1 2 <br />2 n/a n/a n/a 2 <br />1 1 n/a n/a 2 <br />n/a n/a n/a 2 2 <br />1 n/a n/a n/a 1 <br />1 n/a n/a n/a 1 <br />1 n/a n/a n/a 1 <br />1 n/a n/a n/a 1 <br />1 n/a n/a n/a 1 <br />n/a 1 n/a n/a 1 <br />n/a 1 n/a n/a 1 <br />n/a n/a n/a 1 1 <br />I n/a n/a n/a 1 <br />Residents were asked to list their single most important concern regarding the <br />neighborhood. Improving the condition of the houses in the neighborhood was the single <br />most important improvement that should be made according to survey respondents. This <br />concern was equally great in all study areas, except Area III, which has relatively new <br />duplexes. Other various improvements which at least ten or more respondents listed <br />include traffic control, improving street conditions, lighting and the cleanup of unkempt <br />yards. Traffic control was the greatest concern in areas I and IV. The improvement of <br />streets was chiefly a concern in areas II and IV, which are the core areas of Navarre in <br />this study. The improvement of street lighting was mainly a concern in Area IV. Yard <br />cleanup was also a concern in Area IV. <br />i <br />. I <br />I
