From: <br /> To: Ramsey Planning <br /> Subject: Bowers Drive Connection Survey <br /> Date: Tuesday,August 18,2020 4:42:53 PM <br /> Tim Gladhill, I received your letter asking for input regarding the Capstone project. <br /> My major question is safety for Bowers Drive. Our road has a lot of curves and <br /> limited visibility when leaving many driveways. My hope was that there would be <br /> another entry/exit from Bowers to the east. That would decrease traffic as there <br /> would be two ways to enter or exit Bowers. In looking at your concept plan I see a <br /> new trail and what appears to be a trail and emergency vehicle road with gate. That <br /> would only increase foot traffic but not help the traffic we experience. I have <br /> heard there is second option being considered with the east trail/limited vehicle plan <br /> to allow full car traffic. <br /> I would not be in favor of the version that appears in your letter. I would <br /> consider Bowers far more safe with two real entry/exits than the limited emergency <br /> option. I am not concerned about the very rare case where emergency vehicles need <br /> an additional entry vs the traffic we have every day. <br /> Thanks, Bert Horton <br /> 14510 Bowers Drive NW <br /> Ramsey, MN., 55303 <br />
