Recommendation: <br /> <br />Staff recommends rejecting the "no-build" alternative as it is inconsistent with the City's long-term <br />plan. Not providing a collector street through this area will result in unacceptable levels of traffic <br />on residential streets. Staff also recommends rejecting the alternative of constructing the road up to <br />the wetland in anticipation of a future connection. The lack of a connection between the developing <br />area and County Road #5 will not provide significant relief to the existing residential streets which <br />are currently carrying traffic north/south through the existing subdivisions. In addition, it is quite <br />likely that political opposition to the future connection of this roadway will be greater as more <br />residents populate the neighborhood. Staff recommends pursuing the wetland crossing <br />compromise proposed to and accepted by the DNR. <br /> <br />Committee Action: <br /> <br />Motion to recommend that City Council direct the Engineering Consultants to provide final plans <br />for Sunwood Drive between Wood Pond Hills and Sunfish Lake Drive. <br /> <br />Reviewed by: <br /> <br />City Engineer <br />Finance Officer <br />City Attorney <br /> <br />RB:05/23/95 <br />/ccr <br /> <br /> <br />
