With the trends occurring in the region we question the trip generation <br />numbers provided in the EAW. <br /> <br />As an example, the Metro Council's Travel Behavior lJ~ventory numbers for <br />Anoka County show an average of 12.3 trips per single-lhmily home are <br /> <br />Affirmative Action / Equal Opportunity Employer <br /> <br /> <br />
